About
I am a native French tutor with more than 15 years of experience in tutoring people of all ages, beginners, intermediate, or advanced students, and had excellent results with them all. I worked with a few tutoring agencies, Wyzant, Parliament Tutor, etc. as well as on my own.
I am very patient and understanding. I can adapt easily to everyone's needs.
It gives me great pleasure to help people struggling with homework, reading, writing, and test preparation and see how well they perform afterward. I enjoy working with adults as well, whether they are willing to learn a new language or practice and improve their French knowledge. You are never too young or too old to learn!

Mathilde is God sent for my daughter. In just one month, my daughter’s grades went up immensely. The reason being, Mathilde gentle nature, she connects so well with my daughter. She makes the class so engaging. It really matters that Mathilde is a native French speaker and not just a teacher of French. Although we are in different time zones, Mathilde always makes it possible to help my kiddo when she needs it even during the school week. She’s a fantastic teacher and we love her for that!

Mathilde has been an incredible French tutor for both me and my children (ages 10 and 11). She has a wonderful ability to adapt her teaching style to suit different ages and learning levels. She keeps the kids engaged with fun, interactive lessons while also challenging me in a way that builds my confidence and fluency. Her lessons are well-structured, supportive, and tailored to our individual needs. We’ve all made noticeable progress and genuinely enjoy learning with her. I highly recommend Mathilde to anyone looking for a skilled and patient French tutor for both adults and children.

We’ve only had a few sessions so far, but the difference in confidence is already noticeable. Mathilde creates a supportive environment, gives clear explanations, and offers gentle corrections that build skills without discouraging our high schooler. We’re excited to continue working with her.

It’s been 30 years since I’ve been in school. I wanted to learn French. I found Mathilde I’m only a month into the studies and I can feel I can understand . She explains everything in details. She teaches not only a grammar but teaches spoken French so I’m very happy I found her. I would highly recommend her to everyone who wants to learn French from the beginning or if you just want to go to travel to be polite to the French speaking countries.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I try to make them as comfortable as possible, a lot of people are a little nervous in the beginning.

I have a degree in Journalism, and a Certificate in European Languages from Europe, Belgium.
I had a lot of students of all ages, grade level, and background. I had the pleasure to teach the French language to a FBI agent as well, who had to be transferred for 2 years in a French colony in Africa.
