How I Can Help You:

Grab a glass of your favorite red wine and let's meet weekly! You'll learn to love the language and culture like I do!

Wisdom Gained In My Course:

1. Tutoring:
-You will learn French grammar and master the concepts! Practice your speaking skills, boost your confidence, and reduce your anxiety!
-You will gain the study skills and memorization techniques necessary to pass the test!
-We will work together to write your compositions and correct your errors as well as give you the tools you need to unlock an understanding of Francophone cultures.

2. Learning:
-Going on a trip? Learning the language for fun? In this course we will focus on specific areas of interest for each student such as flight/train travel, hotel accommodations, reading a menu and ordering in a restaurant, basic conversations and introductions to people, and understanding etiquette in different Francophone cultures!

3. Destination Travel:
-Want to take your lessons to the next level? There is potential for a guided tour with local excursions and sight seeing to fully immerse you into the culture! (Post-Covid)


Curriculum And Process:

-Programs are tailored to each individual student as no two students learn in the same manner. We will first figure out your goals and current level in the language. Then we work together to create a program that meets your needs. All students have access to Google Classroom with all materials in a digital format. I use authentic videos and music and make presentations, handouts, games, etc.
-My students meet based on needs and desires which is at a minimum bi-weekly. It is very important to use the classroom as a place to interact with language and culture for real-world application. I will use humor at times to lower your affective filter, which is what can cause the anxiety and limiting beliefs when learning a language.

What To Expect At The First Meeting:

-I'll ask questions to know all about you: your hopes and goals for learning French, your aptitudes for learning and learning style, your hobbies, and passions so that I can create a course that is truly individualized and personalized for your needs!

A Little Bit About Me:

I love everything French! Food, books, wine, travel… I first fell in love with the French language at 4 years old, on a trip to the Gaspé Peninsula in Quebec. I've since lived and studied in France and Québec, did a field study and homestay in Tahiti, and toured many French-speaking countries, sometimes even taking students! ​You might call me a true Francophile.

Teaching French to English speakers and English to French speakers is my passion. I am a certified teacher with 20+ years of experience. I have a Bachelor of Science in French (plus over 60 extra college credits in French language, literature, film and cultures between L’Université de la Sorbonne and L’Université de Laval), a Diplôme de langue from the Alliance Française of Paris, and a Master’s in Education focused on the teaching of languages.

​I offer personalized lessons via Zoom where I use a variety of interactive activities and presentations with lessons tailored to your specific needs. This makes learning French fun and engaging, so let's explore this wonderful language and its cultures together!

Reviews:


"Stephanie does more than teach textbook French, she incorporates culture and practical usage. Her passion for the language is impossible to ignore and something I admire. I credit her with igniting my love of international travel and culture. In fact, I received my first passport stamp on a school trip to France and Switzerland! She's a rare treat in the educational world and one I will never forget."

"My family was incredibly blessed to find Stephanie! She brought a wonderful enthusiasm for French culture into the practical lessons for our move overseas. We all looked forward to our weekly lessons and benefitted from her fun homework. Every week, Stephanie carefully built upon previous lessons. We feel confident and prepared for our immersion into French culture. Thank you for sharing your love of the language with our family. Your passion is infectious!"

"I organized a trip to Bordeaux in 2011. I was taking French lessons from Stephanie and offered her services to everyone on the trip. She led the attendees to an understanding of basic French in a short period of time. She is funny, personable, and her lessons really stuck with attendees."
