About Laura

I am a French journalist who just relocated to Toronto.

I started giving French lessons while I was studying in Sciences Po Paris, and loved it so much that I kept doing it throughout the years. I've taught French basics to foreign students and professionals, and French literature to students of all ages, from High school to College.

I hold a Masters' degree from Sciences Po's Journalism School (ranked #2 in France) and a Bachelor of Arts from the same school (it's not internationally famous but it's quite a good one: ask French president Emmanuel Macron about it ;)). Prior to that, I obtained my French Baccalauréat with the highest honors (20/20 in French Literature, in History, Italian Literature...).

I've been teaching with Superprof (using the French version) for more than 5 years now and can provide a LOT of recommendations :)

1) Set up clear objectives (getting a French degree? applying for a new job? being fluent on your next vacation? reading Proust "dans le texte"?)

My methodology varies according to the student's needs and existing knowledge (which are assessed on the first course). It's a mix of "quick-wins" and long-term achievements. It's all about setting up realistic yet challenging goals, and prioritizing what matters most.

2) Focus on conversation
Because practice is the key, I shouldn't be speaking more than you. It's 50-50!
I'm here to help, and mistakes are part of the process: the more you'll make with me, the less will happen in a real-life situation.

3) Global approach
With me, you'll learn not only French language, but more about French culture in general. Instead of classic textbooks, I like to use excerpts from books. I am truly passionate about Literary History and will be more than happy to share my knowledge with you.

Details

You're welcome to my place in downtown Toronto
It's the perfect study environment, with lots of great French books, daylight, and tea/coffee for everyone!
I do not accept to give lessons in public spaces like coffees (except for the first lesson), simply because it's usually not as effective due to the amount of distractions.
I can come to your place, however an additional travel expense fee will be required.
Prices will be adjusted if student takes courses on a regular basis (2 hours/week or more)
