French tutors in Pretoria

As a first year French student, I immediately started loving the language. I am excelling in the subject and tutor many students in it. Once the basics are learnt, it is very easy to go from there. In my tutoring, I focused on the fundamentals of the language to ensure the student would succeed.

I have done french for 15 years. I started in primary school. I have successfully completed first year french at the University of Pretoria with distinction. I am busy preparing for my DELF French exam.

I studied French at high school for 5 years. I also obtained my Bachelor's Degree in French from the University of Pretoria. I have furthermore lived and worked in France for two years. This aided me considerablyin not only becoming fluent in French, but also in gaining a true understanding of the language's roots and the French culture as a whole. I am extremely passionate about the French language, Culture and France itself. It gives me great joy to be able to pass on my knowledge to eager learners!

I can offer both academic and conversational tutoring lessons in French. I have a great passion for the languageand I can teach from beginner French up to intermediate. I am able to teach up level B2 as set out by the CEFR. French is not as daunting as it sounds and is actually quite fun!

I am from a french speaking country. I speak french since i was born and i got a high mark in french in matric. I passed with distinction.

French is just a language with a lot of rules. I believe I can teach easy ways to learn and memorize these rules and other aspects of the beautiful language. If it is approached in a positive manner rather than seen as scary, French is as easy as pie! I believe I can teach this language to students who need to pass and who need a general interest and understanding in the subject. I have 3 International qualification levels for French, namely A1, A2 and B1. I am equipped to teach any level from the basics up to grade 12.

With a strong background in teaching as well as an advanced French University qualification, I am capable of teaching both grammar and French literature from levels A1 to B2. I am also capable of teaching conversational French from absolute beginner level to more advanced learners. As my family lives in France, I make frequent trips to France and can thus keep you up to date with all the current uses of French in a real life situation!

I am fluent in English and Spanish with a moderate understanding of French. I play basketball in my spare time and also read and write.

I am currently a civil engineering student and mentor, I enjoy sharing my knowledge with others and support those who need feel hopeless, for I always say to my students that "Nothing is impossible without effort" . I also love music (piano and organ) and play tennis.

It is my passion to teach languages - I have many years of experience teaching languages to all age groups. I adapt lessons to accommodate the reason why a person wants to learn a language - if only a basic foundation is needed for traveling, we focus on basic language skills, speaking and understanding of basic phrases and language structures. If fluency is the end goal, we take the slow route of getting acquainted with the foundations of the language and talking and reading as much as possible. I firmly believe that if a person enjoys the lessons, we are already on the road to success.
