Private French Coaching

Bonjour ! My name is Charlie, I’m American, and I’ve been teaching French privately for 10+ years.

I’ve also lived in Paris for 7 years, I studied at the Sorbonne, I have a Masters in Teaching French as a Foreign Language, and I’ve written 2 books about learning French.

A bit about me:

❌ I’m not French

❌ I have no French family

✅ Yet I STILL learned French as an adult!

1. Set your unique goals

2. Custom lessons based on your needs

3. Focus on actually using the language

 

Imagine you’re in Paris and you can at last order a croissant with a beautiful French accent 🥐

Or finally being able to connect with your francophone family members who only speak French ❤️

Or even just being able to speak French confidently, no matter the situation!

All of this is totally possible, but you need a coach to show you the way, just like a professional athlete. You need the guidance of someone who has achieved the results you want and can teach you how it’s done!

Any challenge you’re facing as a French learner, I’ve already overcome.

And I’ve developed a ton of techniques that get my clients results quickly & easily! You don't have to struggle and learn French alone, let me help you!

The way I teach French is completely different from anything you’ve had before.

This is not the “cookie cutter, one size fits all” approach you may be used to.

My program is personalized to fit the student’s goals while taking into account the specific challenges each unique student faces.

I’m going to save you the time and hassle of trying to figure this out on your own. If you’ve been trying to learn French for awhile and you don’t see the results you want, it’s because you need a coach who can show you how it’s done.

No one just wanders to the top of Mount Everest, you need a solid plan and the guidance of an expert if you want the best results in the shortest amount of time possible.

What you’ll learn:

  • French grammar, vocabulary, & expressions - but more importantly how to apply what you learn in conversation. The classes are focused on French conversation. No boring drills / exercises !!


  • Oral comprehension - why is it so difficult to understand spoken French, even after years of study? There are specific techniques to get better at this and I’ll show you how you can finally understand people when they speak French!


  • French phonetics - this is the science of French pronunciation. You’ll learn exactly how to pronounce words and why.


  • The psychology of language learning - There’s so much more to language learning than just grammar and vocabulary !! How do you stop yourself from feeling nervous? Why do you block when you speak so someone in French and what to do about it? Often, this kind of stuff is what hold French learners back the most!


  • Creating a French routine - how are you going to fit French into your life in a meaningful way? What should you be watching and reading in order to learn the language most efficiently? I’ll show you how to integrate French into your life and make lasting progress in the language.

How My Program Works:

First, we decide your goals and what you want to achieve. We can do conversational French, academic French, business French, travel, accent reduction, or any combination you choose.

I specialize in conversational French, which means you’ll be speaking A LOT from the very first lesson, but don’t worry, I’ll help you every step of the way.

No textbooks, no boring exercises !! Unless you’re focusing on academic French, I generally don’t use textbooks/worksheets. These make you feel like you’re making progress, but in the end they don’t really help you so much when it comes time to use your French in real life. I instead prefer to show you how the language works by actually using it in conversation with you.

We start off intensely, usually meeting 1-2 times a week and I teach you techniques to make speaking French easier and how to integrate French into your lifestyle.

You won't find this in any textbook!

Once you establish a solid routine, we slowly start to taper off and see each other less.

I’m available by email for even you need a little extra guidance and the you’ll also have access to my Zero to French & French Pronunciation video courses (a $600+ value!)

The goal by the end of the program is to get you to the point where you don’t need me anymore and continue progressing in the language on your own.
