This course exceeded all my expectations. Tanguy has an easy teaching method. We spoke only French at lunch and at the sightseeing event each day. (I spoke French back in college but not much since so I was not a novice, but pretty rusty.) Each day I found myself more comfortable and by the end of the class I was speaking only French and felt comfortable. The lunches and the sightseeing was amazing. I highly recommend this course.

I had an excellent experience learning French with Tanguy. He is an outstanding teacher: attentive, highly didactic, and remarkably effective in adapting each lesson to my needs and pace. His classes are engaging, relaxed, and enjoyable, making the learning process both productive and motivating. Tanguy combines professionalism with a friendly approach, creating an environment where learning feels natural and enjoyable. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for high-quality French lessons, whether in person or online. Ricardo Levisky

I have been taking French classes since 2022 with Tanguy having started as a total beginner. I initially wanted to learn to communicate better with my partner's family as French is their first language. However, with tailored lesson plans with a great range of speaking, listening and written exercises it has been easy to progress to formal exams. I have already passed the DELF B1 and I plan to do the B2 shortly. I would thoroughly recommend - I really enjoy the sessions.

I had anxiety about finding a French tutor who would help me improve my spoken and written French without making me feel embarrassed about my lack of fluency. Tanguy has proved to be ideal, designing his teaching around my needs, helping me with pronunciation, conversational practise and written grammar. His excellent command of English helps with translation of specialist words and idiomatic expressions. He can help speakers at all levels of language expertise including if you need to pass exams. He is a joy to work with and has a good sense of humour.

Tanguy’s Paris French Immersion course was not only one of my best learning experiences but also one of the best trips I’ve ever taken. I had only been studying French for a few months, and the combination of focused one‑on‑one lessons each morning and real‑world practice throughout Paris was the secret sauce of the program. Speaking French in the Latin Quarter, Montmartre, around the Eiffel Tower, and even in rooftop bars and hidden local spots was an incredible private VIP tour all while learning the language. Tanguy tailored every lesson to my level, emphasized correct fundamentals and pronunciation, and made each session engaging and motivating. In just five days, my confidence and comprehension grew dramatically. I continued with weekly online tutoring afterward, which built perfectly on what we started in Paris and kept my progress accelerating. I highly recommend this course for learners at any level, whether you’re studying French for professional or personal reasons.

03 Discover Paris like a local

Each afternoon, your teacher will guide you through a different Parisian district on excursions thoughtfully tailored for seniors, featuring easy access and a relaxed pace. Tours are conducted in clear, slow-paced French, with English used as needed to clarify complex terms and concepts.

DAY 1

Victor Hugo & Place des Vosges

Stroll through the stunning Place des Vosges—the oldest planned square in Paris. Together with your teacher, you’ll practice your French while tracing the footsteps of Victor Hugo, admiring the perfectly symmetrical red-brick architecture, and uncovering the secrets hidden beneath its grand stone arcades.

DAY 2

Bon Marché & The Grands Magasins

Step inside Le Bon Marché, the world’s very first department store and the inspiration behind modern shopping as we know it. Alongside your teacher, you’ll uncover the fascinating story of the visionary couple who revolutionized retail in 19th-century Paris—all while admiring the landmark’s stunning Belle Époque architecture and iconic glass ceilings at a relaxed pace.

FEATURED RESTAURANT

Normandy Cuisine

Try a different regional French dish every day—from Parisian classics to local specialties from the Perche—at great spots our team has personally tested and loved. It’s a relaxed, delicious lunch and an easy way to practice everyday French together.

DAY 3

Quartier Latin & Saint-Sulpice

Explore the historic Latin Quarter and the grand Église Saint-Sulpice with your teacher. Enjoy a relaxed walk through Paris’s oldest scholarly neighborhood, admire Eugène Delacroix’s masterpieces, and uncover a surprising hidden treasure inside one of the city’s largest churches.

DAY 4

Les Impressionnistes

Discover a hidden museum and explore the birth of Impressionism—learning why it was a scandal-ridden movement at first, how Claude Monet created it, and the story behind an iconic painting that was stolen a few decades ago. All in French.

DAY 5

Hidden Montmartre

Explore the hidden side of Montmartre, stepping away from the crowded basilicas and onto its quiet, winding cobblestone streets. Together with your teacher and a local expert guide, discover secret vineyards, historic artist studios, and the old-world windmills that most tourists miss.
