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.

CONTENT OF THE COURSE

Tailored to your level of French

Real-Life Speaking Practice

You will have the opportunity to practice and refine your speaking skills through conversations on small talk and engaging topics, including introducing yourself and others, discussing your daily routine, describing your hobbies, explaining your job and professional tasks, and planning your next holidays.

Build your lexicon with specific high-use terms: time phrases (à quelle heure, tout de suite, en retard, dans une semaine), daily life (se lever, être en forme, s’aérer après le travail), restaurant vocabulary (la cuisson, le serveur·euse, commander, demander, régler l’addition), transportation terms (composter, monter vs descendre, se diriger vers), work and professional life (planifier, remettre à plus tard, la réunion, voyage d’affaires), and common connectors (donc, alors, ensuite, d’abord, enfin).

Master essential French structures through practical application: conjugate être and avoir in key tenses (présent, passé composé vs imparfait, futur, conditionnel); use aller + infinitive to express the futur proche; distinguish between tricky grammatical words, including definite and indefinite articles (le/la/les vs un/une/des), partitive articles (du/de la/des), demonstrative adjectives (ce/cet/cette/ces); correctly use and contract prepositions (à+le=au vs à+la=à la vs en); and know the difference between depuis (for ongoing actions and pendant (for a duration).

Practice specific sound patterns that trip up English speakers: pronounce tu vs. tout correctly, improve your nasal sounds as in restaurant, un pont, le pain, practice liaison in phrases like vous_/z/_avez, quand_/t/_est-ce que, comment_/t/_allez-vous, and develop the right intonation for positive and negative statements, as well as questions.

Through tailor-made listening activities and fill-in-the-blank exercises, you will train your ear to understand fast, natural French speech. These activities are specifically designed to recycle the new vocabulary taught in the theoretical sections. This repetition allows your brain to slowly integrate the new lexicon for long-term retention. Topics will cover a practical spectrum, ranging from personal life to professional work settings.

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

Communicate clearly and confidently with polished grammar and an expanded vocabulary to navigate key topics, including introductions, family and social life, small talk, and business settings.

Accurately understand your teacher during natural-paced discussions, including their questions and positive or negative statements, by applying the learned course material.

Speak with excellent pronunciation, including mastering individual French sounds, nasal sounds, and proper liaisons.

We are proud to have assisted
over 100 international clients—including executives, diplomats, and their families—to converse confidently with native French speakers in everyday situations
