I am an enthusiastic, friendly and flexible French national postgraduate educator and I am keen to share my knowledge to help to support, guide and inspire you with your personalised learning journey!

I highly recommend Emilie. Emilie teaches my 13-year-old son every week. She’s extraordinarily talented at educating in a creative and engaging way. She is very patient and has a positive approach. My son is pleased to learn French from her. He is getting more and more confident in French because of her.

I have had French lessons with Emilie for 15 years in various settings- large evening classes, small groups and now one-to-one.

She is able to adapt her teaching methods to individual need. She explains things clearly and encourages you to "have a go" to stretch yourself. Her lessons are engaging, we discuss a wide variety of topics which incorporate grammatical points & new vocabulary and she cares about you getting the most out of each lesson. She carefully checks and corrects written work and provides constructive feedback.

Emilie is patient, sensitive and friendly whilst remaining professional. I would not hesitate to recommend her for French lessons.

Emilie is professional, encouraging, supportive and friendly. Her lessons and approach are unfailingly inclusive.

Emilie believes strongly in adopting an individualised approach to learning and is always quick to tune in to my needs and interests and to identify what I am hoping to get out of the class, tailoring each lesson to me.

She is a good listener and always responds to my questions and follows up anything that I would like to revise or need clarified.

As someone who is not a beginner, I value that as a native speaker Emilie is able to explain linguistic nuances, introduce me to idiom and focus on the subtleties of the living language, helping me to develop a greater understanding of it.

Emilie is very well organised and flexible, delivering online classes at times that are convenient to us both.

I would recommend her classes unreservedly and would encourage anyone to give them a try. You can be assured of a warm welcome.

Emilie Lefrancois has been my French teacher for two years. I have been learning French for many years, however the lessons with Emilie were the ones that made a true difference to my level of French. It has been wonderful to work with the teacher who understands the needs of the student and is happy to design an individual learning approach that works. The lessons are interesting, fun, informative and productive. Emilie is very positive, encouraging teacher who makes a learning process enjoyable. I always look forward to our lessons because after each lesson I feel more and more comfortable at speaking. I currently live in New York and having the option of Zoom lessons was transformational as it can fit most of the busy schedules of potential students.
I can highly recommend Emilie Lefrancois as a very experienced teacher who can help students of any level to reach their goals.

I’ve known Emilie since 2007 when I first attended French conversation classes and I also had private lessons from Emilie. She is extremely patient and manages to find a way to get through to all students at all ability levels. Her sessions are enjoyable and easy to follow. She puts people at their ease. I would highly recommend Emilie.

Emilie is the best French teacher ever! Her in depth knowledge of the language means she has memorable ways to explain everything. She has taken into account my aims seamlessly into her teaching style and every time I see my French friends, they always tell me how much progress I’ve made. Can’t recommend Emilie highly enough!

Emilie is a great tutor, teaching in a very calm relaxed and fun way, patiently helping you learn at a pace which suits you, and help you retain what you've learned. Whenever I want to improve my French further I will definitely ask Emilie. As background I did some French lessons with Emilie well over a decade ago, trying to improve my very basic skills learned at school. Despite not being able to practise recently, I've retained virtually everything Emilie taught me, which proves that she teaches very well, teaching so that the knowledge is retained. I've haven't lost any of my reading ability and whilst the speaking element is a little rusty it comes back quickly.

I have tried many times over the years to learn French and always failed, until I met Emilie.
I enrolled at evening classes 1 last time ( aged 56) and I have never looked back.I can finally visit France and have a conversation with a local.
Thanks to her patience, well designed lessons and professional approach I gained my confidence and mastered the complexities of French grammar .Merci beaucoup Emily,tu est sans doute SUPERPROF ÉMILIE.
