MEET YOUR TEACHER

Stéphanie - French lessons for adults online - Experienced online French tutorBonjour ! I’m Stéphanie — a native French teacher for adults, passionate about helping you learn real French through culture, curiosity, and what YOU love most.

With nearly 18 years of experience teaching French as a foreign language (FLE), I’ve worked with learners of all levels — in universities, ministries, international organisations, language schools, and, for over a decade now, online (long before remote learning became the norm!).

I offer tailor-made online French lessons for adults, focused on real-life French the way native speakers actually use it — not textbook clichés. You choose the theme (see below 👇), and I adapt everything to your goals: whether you’re learning French for work, relocation, study, travel, or personal interest.

Ready to try? I offer a free 30-minute trial lesson — just send me an email to book yours!
Looking forward to meeting you — à très bientôt !

Book a free trial

If our schedules match, I’ll be very happy to offer you a 30-minute free trial lesson. I’ll send a questionnaire to fill out 24h before the lesson is due to start.

Trial lesson

We meet on Teams (or another platform). Using a computer or laptop rather than a tablet or smartphone makes it easier to manage video and chat during the lesson. After the trial, you decide whether you’d like to continue — no pressure — if you feel it’s not the right fit, that’s absolutely fine too.

What my international students say

Every day, I travel virtually across the globe through my online French lessons.
I start my mornings in Australia or Japan, continue through Europe, including the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, Ireland, Italy, and Spain, and end my day in North America, with students in Canada and the United States.
Since my students speak different languages, some of their testimonials may appear in different languages like for instance in Spanish, German, Italian or Dutch,
… a beautiful reminder of how international our learning community is.

Dankzij Stéphanie is mijn taalniveau sterk vooruitgegaan. Ze heeft me niet alleen geholpen om het Frans vlot te spreken,
maar ook mijn culturele inzicht verrijkt, iets wat enorm waardevol is geweest tijdens het wonen en werken in Frankrijk.
Haar flexibiliteit, inspirerende manier van lesgeven en haar aanstekelijke gevoel voor humor worden gecombineerd met een brede kennis over allerlei onderwerpen. Ze creëert een warm, motiverend klimaat waarin elke les niet alleen leerzaam, maar ook een plezier is!

Quick feedback: highlighting what I really liked for the last 2 times:

– the lesson is structured: I know what to expect (we have recap, what will be the new lesson etc.) beforehand the lesson
– I also like the goal setting, you are right, it is more specific, so we have a schedule to keep and be accountable
– I liked the 15 min approach idea
– I like those pictures and videos that you share about the French expressions → these make the lesson even more colorful.

Empecé mis clases de francés con Stéphanie porque mi empresa me trasladó a Francia.
Las clases con Stéphanie me permiten no solo aprender rápidamente el francés necesario para trabajar, sino también para vivir en Francia.
Siempre ha sido de gran ayuda para comprender tanto el idioma como la cultura francesa. ¡Gracias!

Stephanie is very helpful, knowledgeable, patient and kind - it is a real pleasure to learn from her. She has a very systematic and practical approach to teaching French which is focused on helping her students get comfortable with the language without getting stuck in the complexity and nuances unique to the language.

I highly recommend Stephanie as a French teacher. For me, I found it refreshing that she didn't just work from rigid lesson plans but would quickly adapt lessons to focus on my areas of difficulties or interest. She also made it interesting by helping to explain subtle aspects of French culture. In addition to being an excellent teacher she is also caring and has a good sense of humour which makes it easier for me to learn.

I really enjoy our lessons. They are varied, stimulating and fun. They are a good mixture of interesting topics, enough grammar to make me feel I am making some progress as far as accuracy is concerned. You soon understood the level I'm at and always give me lots of choice to ensure I am getting what I want or need. You are extremely patient and have a very good sense of humour. You are also flexible and above all, encouraging. It's a joy to learn with you...

Stéphanie wurde mir schon vor langer Zeit empfohlen, aber es war nicht einfach, einen Platz bei ihr zu bekommen. Und ich bin froh, dass ich auf meinen „Slot“ gewartet habe!
Stéphanie ist eine echte Profi – sie bereitet den Unterricht immer sorgfältig vor: jede Stunde ist klar durchdacht und an die Bedürfnisse der Lernenden angepasst. Der Unterricht ist so angenehm und spannend, dass die Stunde wie im Flug vergeht. Seit ich mit Stéphanie lerne, habe ich keine Angst mehr zu sprechen und spreche viel flüssiger. Außerdem ist Stéphanie einfach unglaublich sympathisch – der Unterricht fühlt sich an wie ein kleines Fest. 😊

I've been working with Stéphanie for almost four years, and she has been outstanding in helping me keep up my French and progress on several levels. Stéphanie is one of the most attentive teachers I've met, and working with her is engaging, challenging, and fun. I feel fortunate to be working with her!

Очень рекомендую занятия французским со Стефани, она преподаватель с опытом и носитель языка. Я занимаюсь с ней около четырех лет и за это время я не только поддерживала язык, но и повысила уровень. Теперь во время путешествий чувствую себя очень комфортно и разговариваю по-французски свободно!

I have been taking French lessons with Stephanie for the past 2 years and I can confidently say I wouldn’t be at the level I am at without her. The lessons are engaging with lots of preprepared materials for listening, vocabulary, writing, grammar and lots of support offered for any topics required - for example we did a lot of preparation for some interviews I had in French. I am so grateful and happy to have found Stephanie and to continue with the lessons until I get to my desired level!

Stéphanie helped me to prepare for a final exam in French which I passed – thanks to her – with the highest mark. Generally, I improved my French. Her classes cover all important aspects. She has a profound knowledge of the language as well as of the pedagogy to teach online. I highly recommend her for learning French or for preparing for exams.
