I’m a native French speaker with 13+ years of teaching experience, helping kids, teens and adults become confident in real‑life French. I am based in Santa Monica, CA but I also offer lessons via Google Meet. I tailor each lesson to your goals, whether that’s school support or conversation for travel and work. My approach is clear, patient and encouraging so you feel comfortable speaking from day one. I’m new to Thumbtack, but not new to teaching—you will see real progress every week. -All levels: Beginners to Advanced (A0-C1) -Focus on speaking confidence, real conversation, and grammar when needed -Specialty: French for relocation to France (daily life, admin, work culture, housing, doctors, social situations) I have relocated myself, so I know the real challenges! My approach: Lots of speaking practice + personalized feedback on pronunciation. Lessons are friendly, structured, and goal-focused. Perfect for: Travel, work, school support, or preparing to move to a French-speaking country. I also teach English as a second language! I taught English to French and Spanish speaking clients in France and in the US.See more

Judy L. says, "Prof. Alex is not only an super professional at teaching and changing accents and improving speech of others including mine, but he is also a kind, smart, and interesting persona to learn from. He DOES CARE and that sets him apart from all coaches who juts need your money! I feel so special working with him for almost 5 months! He is consistently tracking my progress even outside the class. He tales his time to evaluate my audio assignments that i am sending him to whatsapp, communicates with me what to focus if i got off. It costs way more than $160. I think this approach makes me succeed in my accent! I highly recommend to hire such a brilliant pro as prof. Alex , and you will make a lot of progress on your English speak or accent reduction! He is the best at training and re-training speech and he has all advanced tools that nobody has to succeed! I am so thankful, prof. Alex that you accepted me as your student! Its good to have such an excellent American accent coach like you are!"See more
