About
As a NATIVE French speaker hailing from PARIS, I have accumulated over 5,000 hours of experience teaching the French language. Working remotely, I offer one-on-one sessions through Zoom or FaceTime from 9am to 9pm, seven days a week. My students span across the US, Europe, and Australia, ranging from beginners to advanced learners, tourists, and French language enthusiasts.

Through conversation practice and role play of real-life scenarios, we prioritize enjoyment while tackling grammar basics for beginner students by emphasizing listening comprehension and PRONUNCIATION before introducing advanced grammatical concepts. Progress is always celebrated, and witnessing my students' improvement is truly a joy.

Catherine takes a thoughtful and logical approach to teaching French. When learning a non-native language, it's important to first understand the sounds and phonetics before attempting to speak it. Catherine's method of gradually introducing material allowed me to learn how to properly pronounce French words. Additionally, she tailors the lessons to your specific goals, whether it's for travel or personal communication, to make the learning applicable and efficient. I thoroughly enjoy each lesson and appreciate Catherine's excellent teaching skills. Thank you, Catherine!

Having had no prior experience with a foreign language, my first lesson with Catherine was an unknown factor. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the experience as she kindly and patiently led me through some fundamental French sounds. I am excited to continue learning with her and would highly recommend her to others.

I am delighted to say that I have had three lessons with Catherine, and I couldn't be happier with my decision to choose her as my teacher. I have already gained a wealth of knowledge from her, and I am particularly pleased that she recognized my aptitude for French, given my previous language learning experiences. Catherine's patience is exceptional, and she takes great care to ensure that my pronunciation is accurate, which is of utmost importance to me. Although I studied French in high school, I can confidently say that the quality of education I am receiving from Catherine is superior. While I understand that one-on-one instruction is often easier, it is her teaching methods that really set her apart. Dear Catherine, thank you for all of your hard work and dedication. Sincerely, Phyllis Schmidt
