Julie
BA Duke University
7+ Years Tutoring

Earning a full Bachelor of Arts in French means Julie didn't just study the language — she read, wrote, and argued in it at an advanced academic level. She digs into verb tenses, subjunctive triggers, and pronoun placement with the kind of precision that moves students past intermediate plateaus. Whether the goal is conversational fluency or mastering written grammar, her dual-degree background keeps lessons grounded in how French is actually used.

Martha
BA Duke University • Current Grad Student, Global Health Duke University
1+ Years Tutoring

Learning French well means internalizing patterns — when to use the subjunctive, how object pronouns rearrange in compound tenses, why certain prepositions follow certain verbs. Martha treats these not as arbitrary rules but as a system students can reason through, drawing on her background in psychology to understand how learners actually acquire and retain new structures. She's taught French from introductory through advanced levels and holds a 5.0 client rating.

Olivia
BA University of Pittsburgh-Pittsburgh Campus
6+ Years Tutoring

Few tutors can move comfortably between French grammar drills and open-ended conversation, but Olivia has taught French at multiple levels and lists it as one of her favorite subjects. She digs into the mechanics that make French click — verb conjugation patterns, gendered agreement, and the partitive articles that English speakers consistently misuse. Her engineering background also means she brings a systematic, logical approach to what can feel like an overwhelming amount of rules.

Amanda
BA The University of Alabama • Doctor of Medicine, Public Health Baylor College of Medicine
8+ Years Tutoring

Though her primary expertise runs through biology and medicine, Amanda's structured, analytical approach to learning transfers well to picking apart French grammar — she treats verb conjugation patterns and noun-gender rules like systems to decode rather than lists to memorize. Her experience preparing for the SAT Spanish with Listening exam also means she's familiar with the discipline of foreign language study, from building vocabulary systematically to training your ear for spoken comprehension.

Claire
BA Brown University
1+ Years Tutoring

Few tutors can match Claire's depth with French: she began at age five, earned a degree in it from Brown, TA'd university French courses, and lived entirely in French during a semester in Senegal. Whether a student is conjugating être for the first time or preparing to discuss Francophone literature, she adapts her teaching to the level and makes the language feel accessible rather than academic.

Sherry
BA University of Chicago
10+ Years Tutoring

Studying both linguistics and psychology at the University of Chicago gave Sherry an unusual edge for teaching French — she understands how language systems are structured and how the brain actually acquires new ones. She applies that dual perspective to everything from gendered noun patterns to the nuances of French phonology, making unfamiliar sounds and grammar feel more logical. Rated 5.0 by students.

Kerry
MS William James College • BA Cornell University
1+ Years Tutoring

Learning French requires consistent practice and the willingness to make mistakes out loud — two things that are harder than they sound when self-consciousness takes over. Kerry teaches across all four levels of French and uses her psychology training to create a low-pressure environment where students actually speak, conjugate, and think in the language. She emphasizes verb tenses, conversational fluency, and the listening comprehension skills that classroom instruction often rushes past.
