Native French tutor in Toronto - beginner to advanced (homework/exams, conversational, translation)
Methodology
My teaching methods are adapted to the needs of students and no two lessons are the same.
I'll schedule a call with you to discuss your goals: I want to gauge your current level and know your purpose for learning French so that we can achieve your goals together. Accordingly, it is crucial for me to get an idea of what you like (hobbies, TV series, etc.) so that I can create and adapt my content to make classes as fun and engaging as possible for you.
I can help beginners who want to learn French, as well as anyone who wants to improve. I can provide help with homework, exam preparation and translation.
Background
I graduated with a masters degree in English research from the University of Nice, and I am currently working as an educator in a francophone daycare in Toronto, Ontario.
I have previously tutored through an agency, teaching English or French to 20+ students - usually in 1-on-1 sessions - over the past four years. I have worked with students in all age groups, from young children to teenagers and adults.
Since I moved to Canada a year ago, I've tutored many students and continue to work with many of them to help them achieve their goals.

Perfect! Marie is an excellent teacher. My experience with her was fantastic; couldn't have gotten any better ! She understood my weakness quickly and created top notch content for me to practice french. She is my top recommendation on this platform so far !
Perfect! Marie is super-flexible and attentive to my kids' needs. They enjoy her as a teacher.
Perfect! Marie has been tutoring me close to two months now and has been amazing. She is very adaptable to what is required of her students: 1. has a phone call before the first class to evaluate your level and where you want to focus 2. very accommodating to incorporate things as they came up in a lessons.
She is easy going, organized and really encouraging of her students to continually communicate in French.
I like working with Urooj because she takes French learning very seriously. She's committed and I can tell that she studies outside of our sessions. I'm confident that she will reach the level she's aiming at really soon!
Perfect! Marie is excellent. She really listens closely to my particular needs, and focuses on what she feels will give me the best grounding in my learning. She is smart, creative, friendly and strict in the best way. She has been very inspiring to work with. Thanks.
I'm impressed that Degan started learning French on his own, he's decent at speaking and I'm confident that after a few grammar reminders and a lot of practice he will be fluent at it!
Perfect! Marie is very patient, kind and extremely helpful. She makes the lessons fun and I look forward to them! Super attentive and flexible, would highly recommend!
Inna has a strong level of French, she makes minor grammar mistakes and is able to construct complex sentences. I'm confident that if she puts in the work required, she will improve tremendously and at a fast pace. She seems curious and eager to learn.

Marie has been a tutor to my daughter who is in grade 2 for the past 6 months. We originally started with 1 hour weekly sessions, but with covid, we've increased it to 30 mins a day, and it has truly been a life saver. Maris has proven her ability to build a strong, positive, and encouraging relationship with my daughter.
She uses creative and fun exercises with a focus on topics that my daughter likes, and my daughter looks forward to her lesson every day.
For example, Marie is helping my daughter write a movie, while they write the script, Marie is teaching her grammar, like infinitive vs conjugative verbs, without my daughter even realizing it.
There are times when I ask Marie to deviate from her lesson plan so she can help with a specific homework requirement, and she has been very flexible with anything I have asked, it's been a tremendous help for both me and my daughter
We really lucked out with Marie, I've been very happy with her and recommend her highly.
Marie m'a permis d'améliorer mon niveau général d'anglais et de français. Elle m'a entraînée pour de diverses tâches comme la traduction et des commentaires/dissertations.
Je recommande fortement cette enseignante - dévouée et passionnée. Marie a été patiente et attentive à mes besoins. J'ai pu atteindre mes objectifs grâce à son aide précieuse.
She has a flexible style of teaching for all levels of French. Very patient and is always happy to focus the class on what is important to her students. I have noticed my French improve significantly since working with her two months ago.
Marie has been a great friend of mine since 2012 when we first met in school. She has always been serious and diligent in her work. She is also an enthusiastic and strong woman, always eager to share her knowledge and help others. Her empathy makes a great tutor for children as well as teenagers or adults.
Marie is very patient, kind and extremely helpful. She makes the lessons fun and I look forward to them! Super attentive and flexible, would highly recommend!
I found Marie's contact online and we've been working together for a while at this point. I really like studying French with her, she is extremely well prepared and very organized. Also, she really does an effort to help me through the topics I like, even if they are unknown to her. I started learning French from the very basics, but I can see great improvements every day through the support I receive from her. Absolutely recommended!
Marie gave me English lessons when I was preparing my TOEFL exam. She took time to answer all my questions and help me a lot to develop my grammar skills. She was always attentive to my requests and my needed.I highly recommend you Marie to help you at each level of knowledge.
