Julienne is such a great tutor! I've had a lot of anxiety when speaking French, but she does a wonderful job of creating a comfortable environment where learning, speaking, and even making mistakes is easy and constructive. I always look forward to our lessons. She is very flexible and is very kind! Best value, for sure.

After a long journey of reconnecting to refresh my French skills, it was comforting to have an instructor who was responsive, patient, kind soul, and flexibility to create customized technical sessions based on my skills and confidence level. Julienne pushed me to succeed while also providing much needed guidance where needed. A native of France with global exposure and teaching expertise, I highly recommend her for your or your kids French journey! In just 2 weeks I was able to push towards being back to becoming more fluent again! You Rock Julienne!!!

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Every student starts with a conversation about their current French level, goals and learning preferences. I use this information to create a personalized coaching plan.
Our sessions focus on practical communication, conversation, pronunciation, vocabulary and grammar. From the very first lesson, you'll actively use French rather than simply memorize rules. Lessons are adapted as you progress so your learning remains relevant, structured and effective.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a native French speaker with over 14 years of experience teaching French to learners of different ages and proficiency levels.
My teaching experience covers beginner French, conversational fluency, pronunciation, grammar, professional communication and French language exam preparation. I combine practical language instruction with personalized exercises and structured learning materials to help students develop confidence and independence.
