Introduction
French Instructor based in Los Angeles Take French lessons with a qualified French teacher, not just someone who speaks French! I am a certified teacher with the French Department of Education (Education Nationale), and I was a high school teacher near Paris for several years before moving to Los Angeles. I have been trained to work with all types of students and to apply efficient pedagogical methods and curricula, to make your French learning as fun and as fast as possible! Whether you are a high school student struggling with homework, a professional preparing for a trip to France, or a retiree who wants to polish their French, my approach is to explain the logic of the language, because you can memorize better what you understand. I always provide you with the basics that will allow you to build your own sentences, and not only to repeat pre-made expressions. I also use a wide range of material and settings to teach (grammar lessons and conversation of course, but also literature, cartoons, flashcards, games, writing workshops, mini-plays...). You will never be bored! The plus that my students love: I give them lessons and worksheets that I design myself, and help them organize them to create their own French workbook, that they can reuse forever. This includes homework, and questions in between lessons of course. The rate indicated is for individual online lessons, please contact me for group rates. I also propose in-person sessions in the vicinity of Studio City, please inquire for personalized rates. A bientôt!

Recently I booked myself a trip to France and I thought I should brush up on my French so I started looking for courses to enroll in. I've taken French 1 & French 2 in school, so I have super beginner knowledge of the French language. I tried Duolingo and looking into enrolling in courses at my local community college, but it was frustrating to go over super basic material. I am not quite intermediate, but not exactly a beginner either so it was tough to find a learning platform to meet me where I'm at and when I decided to take French lessons it was tough to decide on where and with who So, I finally found Marlene and before committing to any lessons we had a 15 minute meetup to make sure we were the right fit for each other. We went over my goals, my background with French, and my expectations in taking French lessons. I've been taking lessons for a month and a half now and have noticed a significant improvement in my comprehension and my ability to form and speak basic sentences in French. It's intimidating to speak a new language, but Marlene makes me feel comfortable to try and make mistakes. She regularly points out areas where I have improved and in areas I need correcting, Marlene will incorporate it into the lesson so that I can improve. I never feel judged or looked down on for being wrong and that has made a huge difference in my progress. I highly recommend Marlene for anyone who wants to learn or improve their French. She isn't just a French speaker, but someone who has actual experience in teaching French.

I knew I was going to spend a month in Paris so wanted to really work on my high school french to get up to a competent level. Marlene was perfect. I have gone to Paris and was very pleasantly surprised to see how well my tutoring lessons had helped me. Marlene's attitude is excellent, she is a pleasure to work with, and she is an excellent teacher. Highly recommend.

My daughter had an excellent first lesson which exceeded our expectations. She felt much more confident with the French language after just one lesson and is excited to continue learning with Ms. Mousseux

As an advanced French student, I have been working with Marlène for over nine months. She's a very knowledgeable teacher versed in a great variety of subjects. She's always enthusiastic, dynamic and genuinely interested in helping me with my specific needs. She has kept me interested by showing me that there is always something new to discover and that learning a foreign language is a continuous and never ending process. Marlène is by far one of the best teacher I ever had.
