01 The 1:1 Lesson || 02 The Table || 03 The Excursion
Our tailor-made French immersion programs redefine the linguistic experience. We believe French is best mastered through total cultural immersion rather than traditional schooling.
From our prestigious office on the Champs-Élysées, our program seamlessly integrates structured morning private lessons with refined lunches—hand-picked for their culinary excellence and designed for immersive speaking practice.
Each day concludes with afternoon cultural experiences, bringing the language to life in the heart of Paris.
Tanguy has assisted
over 100 American executiVes, diplomats & their families to confidently converse with native French speakers in everyday situations
My name is Tanguy and I am a native French teacher who taught French grammar and translation at the University of Birmingham, United Kingdom. For over 10 years, I have been teaching French to international CEOs, diplomats, and expatriates in Paris, London, and Saint Barth. Born and raised in Paris, I am passionate about sharing my city’s heritage through an authentic, local lens—ensuring you experience Paris as a true Parisian insider.
Our French immersion program is strictly 1:1, focusing entirely on your personal progress.
Experience our morning French lessons in the heart of Paris’s most prestigious district, located at 28 Avenue Franklin Delano Roosevelt, just steps from the iconic Champs-Élysées.
Forget generic classes. We offer three hours of daily, one-on-one immersion designed to help you master the basics and beyond. Every lesson is custom-built to match your level, focus on your objectives, and solve your unique linguistic challenges.
To create a seamless learning experience, the themes of your morning classes are linked to your afternoon excursions. This means you'll learn to discuss food before visiting the restaurant, practice verbs of perception before the wine tasting, and study key verbs and past tenses (passé composé and imparfait) before touring the museum. To ensure you're fully prepared, we've designed an elegant, structured booklet with detailed explanations and personalized exercises.
Go beyond the tourist trails. We pair your lessons with a curated tour of authentic French gastronomy. Whether it’s a rich Boeuf Bourguignon or regional Basque treasures, we show you the best of our culinary heritage.
Apply your morning French lesson immediately: Order your meal entirely in French, name and describe everything on your plate, and hold a dynamic conversation with your teacher, making sure to use any new grammar or vocabulary learned in the morning.
Did you know the word "restaurant" comes from the French verb restaurer (to restore)? This etymology dates back to mid-18th century Paris, where establishments began selling rich meat broths known as "restaurants" to the workers rebuilding the city. You'll have the chance to experience the spirit of these original bouillon restaurants, savoring traditional French dishes like foie gras, oeufs mimosas, boeuf bourguignon, and tarte tatin.
Your teacher will guide you to the best Parisian rooftop terraces. Enjoy a specially crafted cocktail, admire the city's emblematic monuments, and practice conversational French in a sophisticated, yet relaxed atmosphere.
Step back into history at the Place des Vosges to uncover the secrets of the French Revolution! As you explore, remember to put your morning lesson into practice: pay close attention to the past and choose the correct tense (Passé Composé vs. Imparfait).
A private wine tasting experience in Paris featuring a curated selection of bottles, including Chablis, Sancerre, and Bordeaux Blanc. This is more than a tasting—it's a focused language immersion. Practice your conversational French and master key verbs (goûter, boire, etc.) while receiving expert commentary in French and English from your teacher.
Gain exclusive access to Paris's hidden gems with private tours of our handpicked, less-frequented museums. Apply your French skills immediately by describing the artwork that moves you and engaging fully with your expert private guide and French teacher, who conduct the entire tour in French.

Tanguy is incredibly friendly, and his depth of knowledge about the French language is just mind-blowing. Having a teacher who speaks such perfect English was a definite plus because he could immediately pinpoint and explain our difficulties. I loved that he used comparisons to English structures to help us grasp the core differences. The afternoon excursions were the best—we were taken to real, non-touristy locations. My absolute favorite moment was when we visited this small, incredible butcher shop that also served as a restaurant; the people there were true French meat artisans. Definitely gonna go again next year. Cheers,
This program was an absolutely amazing experience. I would recommend this French immersion to anyone who wants to solidify the French theory in the mornings and then immediately apply that knowledge in the real world—it’s the perfect blend.
Tanguy is a great teacher, very patient, and totally accessible. He’s always right there to help us navigate the language in real-time, which is super reassuring, especially when you’re ordering in French! The restaurants he selected were excellent. We enjoyed a fabulous crêperie, a fantastic Basque spot, an authentic Southwestern French meat specialist, and two classic French bistros. It was a true culinary tour of France!
I also really loved the cultural excursions with the local experts and getting to properly explore different arrondissements.
