About
Hello there,Thank you for taking the time to stop by my page! I am eager to assist you with all of your French language needs, aspirations and objectives.
My name is Patricia and I am a Parisian native. I previously worked as a journalist for various French media outlets, but have been teaching French worldwide for over eight years. I graduated from La Sorbonne University in Paris and also hold a degree from L'Alliance Francaise in teaching French as a foreign language.
My area of expertise lies in providing tailored French lessons for both children and adults, regardless of skill level or age.
As the French saying goes, "From 1 to 99 years old…!" Every learner is unique and I have conceived a highly effective method personalised to meet the learning style and objectives of each individual.
Whether you require assistance with your child's French homework, preparing for exams or simply learning for pleasure or work purposes, by the end of our lessons, you will speak with confidence and proficiency like a native Parisian.
I strive to make learning fun and exhilarating, thus, I promise that your success and enjoyment are my top priorities.
I offer both one-on-one sessions and online lessons, and cannot wait to hear from you.
Have a great day!
Patricia

Patricia utilizes the Basic French total language program by McGraw Hill to structure our language lessons. I allot approximately two hours of independent study each week, followed by review and assessment during our weekly study sessions. Patricia gauges my proficiency in pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammar with each review, and adapts the pace of instruction to my needs. She lightens the material by supplementing any archaic or overly formal vocabulary with relevant contemporary usage, and assists in areas requiring focused pronunciation. Patricia also elaborates on dissimilarities between French and American cultural norms. Her buoyant attitude and jocular demeanor ensure our study sessions are a pleasurable experience. Learning French has been both attainable and enjoyable thanks to Patricia's exceptional teaching abilities. I strongly recommend Patricia as a tutor.

Every week, spending time with Patricia feels like a great experience! Though we are learning French, it feels more like I am catching up with a close friend in a new dialect. Patricia's outgoing and humorous personality makes it easy for me to speak in French, and she encourages me by complimenting my accent, which boosts my self-esteem when I'm not feeling confident. You are bound to have a lot of fun learning from her!

I am thrilled to provide an appraisal of my tutoring sessions with Patricia! Her amiable nature, lighthearted approach to teaching, and aptitude for drawing parallels between the content and grammar being taught with my personal experiences make the subject matter more comprehensible and relatable for me. She recognized my eagerness to begin learning French, and her passion for teaching the language is infectious. Attention to proper pronunciation and a commitment to ensuring her pupils excel in their studies are her primary objectives. She is an excellent instructor, and I couldn't recommend her more highly if you're seeking to learn French. Choose Patricia, and you won't be disappointed!
