OUR VISION

Our French immersion programs redefine the linguistic experience.

We move beyond traditional classrooms, focusing instead on tailor-made, total French immersion with the very best of French culture.

Based in the heart of Paris, our French language program seamlessly integrates structured morning private lessons, refined regional lunches for practical speaking practice, and immersive afternoon cultural experiences to bring the language to life.

My name is Tanguy and I am a native French teacher who taught French grammar and translation at the University of Birmingham, United Kingdom. Fluent in English, I currently provide French lessons to international clients, including diplomats, executives, and consultants in France and globally. As a Paris native, I love sharing the city’s hidden gems and best addresses. I tailor every recommendation to your specific tastes, ensuring an authentic, personalized Parisian journey.

  • WINE TASTING

    A private, unique wine tasting experience in Paris featuring a curated selection of exceptional bottles, including Chablis, Sancerre, and Bordeaux Blanc.

  • FIRST RESTAURANTS

    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.

    FIRST RESTAURANTS
  • EXCLUSIVE VISITS

    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 conducts the entire tour in French.

    Testimonials

    Katherine from New York

    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,

    Rachel from San Diego

    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.
