My name is Alexandre, born and raised in Paris, a French tutor and professional language trainer. I have been training and tutoring adults in Canada for 15 years.
University degree in communication and business from France.
I have been tutoring and training individuals and groups in French for 15 years from beginner to intermediate to advanced, adults (professionals and university students).
The lessons aim to improve your conversational skills, listening-comprehension skills, written skills as well as your knowledge of the vocabulary, grammar, conjugation (converting verbs according to subjects; I, you, they, etc, and tenses; past, future, present, etc.) while covering the cultural aspects and applying what we learn to real life case scenarios.
They are customized based on the goals and needs of the students, the deadlines (if any) and daily schedule, as well as their background in the language (professional or personal experience, previous schooling, etc).
Monday to Friday between 9am and 9pm.
Weekends are also a possibility.
Available only for online lessons at this time.
I've been having classes with Alex for a couple of months now, and the improvement since the early classes are clear! He adjusted his teaching to accommodate better my learning and understanding of the language, and is very accommodating of my schedule when needed. Alex has a lot of expertise on his teaching and knows how to transfer knowledge that well during classes.
Alexandre is an excellent French tutor! I've always wanted to learn to speak French but didn't think it was possible, especially as an adult. Alexandre tailored the lessons to suit my learning ability & style and has been very patient. I am amazed how far I've come in a short period of time. All thanks to Alexandre! I highly recommend him!
Alex is the best French teacher! He is organized, passionate about the French language and very funny. When we began our classes in April, Alex asked what our goals were for learning French. We let him know that we were moving to Switzerland in September and wanted to learn basic conversational skills. He developed a program for us to speak/read/write past tense, future tense, and learning French phrases. We also asked for information on local etiquette and culture, which he provided personal experience/education. We really enjoyed learning French with Alex and feel prepared for our big move! We have shared many funny jokes and interesting stories that have made the last few months of class fly by! We would highly recommend taking French classes with Alex - he will help you reach your goals and enjoy learning!
Alexandre is the best French instructor you could ever ask for! He is a professional French instructor, while taking lessons with him I really enjoyed the way he tuned his teaching method to match my way of learning.In terms of his teaching method, he puts great effort to listen properly to his students and tries to enlighten them with patience and care. Also, he teaches students in accordance with their aptitude to help them achieve their full potential. What sets him apart is his knowledge of French Language which adds a dimension to learning French resulting in a deeper understanding of the language. As an experienced teacher he knows how to bring excitement and joy to his lessons. You can experience the highest standards of professionalism in his work. He gave me the confidence to start and make progress on learning French. After taking classes, I’ve developed a passion & enthusiasm for learning the French language. I really enjoyed learning French from him. I’d strongly recommend Alexandre to anyone who wants to learn French and enjoy this journey.
Alexandre is a natural teacher and very easy to talk to. His practical and structured approach to our lessons was refreshing after my years of studying French in a classroom, reading through textbooks, and repeating lines written on a chalkboard. He incorporates reading, writing, and speaking practice into his lessons, which I especially appreciated since I often neglected one of these forms of practice when studying on my own. He is also readily able to explain new vocabulary words and the influence of French culture on the language. Since a sentence in one language cannot always be translated literally into another language, Alexandre often points out the subtle differences in how English-speakers and French-speakers would express something. I greatly enjoyed our lessons and highly recommend Alexandre to anyone intimidated by the prospect of learning French.
