Bio

Bonjour! Hello!

My name is Chrystele, and I am a native French speaker with over eight years of experience teaching French to American students from complete beginners to the most advanced levels (from 5-12 grades to college/university levels, professionals, and self-taught adults).

Bonjour! Hello!

My name is Chrystele, and I am a native French speaker with over eight years of experience teaching French to American students from complete beginners to the most advanced levels (from 5-12 grades to college/university levels, professionals, and self-taught adults). 

My background: I have a bachelor's in French Summa Cum Laude with a concentration in Translating and a specialization in English Linguistics, a graduate Certificate in Translating, and a bachelor's in Fashion design.

My experience: I have solid expertise in French grammar, conjugation, pronunciation, literature, and writing essays, but also language learning study skills.

My philosophy: I always aim to break the learning curve to make grammar and pronunciation concepts more digestible and understandable and also guide you to know what you should focus on.

I help middle/high school/college students to prepare for written and oral exams and with their assignments and homework; I help adults who plan to travel or live in France and need to gain confidence and develop their fluency in French.

As a tutor, I can help you with the following:
- with your homework
- editing, proofreading, or writing an essay in French or your resume
- mastering French pronunciation, improving your fluency in French, and gaining more confidence
- to know and understand better French culture
- understanding and using correct grammar/conjugation rules
- understanding literary texts
- mastering business French
- or only brushing up your French.

I am very aware of the difficulty of learning a second language, but through my long experience, I know how to help you. I will provide a relaxed environment that will help you to give the best of your capacity and to make noticeable improvements.

I am looking forward to hearing from you very soon!

French

French

These last 3 years I have been tutoring young adults and adults with very different goals (before an exam or on a regular yearly basis, before an assessment, some before an expatriation in France, some just for regular trips in Canada) and backgrounds but whatever their goals and difficulty I helped them to really improve their skills and especially their confidence. Often, the most difficult part is speaking French because they have no opportunity to practice with French native. I used to work for lawyers in an international firm in Paris so my French had to be excellent to meet their expectations. So, you can be sure you will learn a proper French in a relaxed environment.

very patient, excellent explanations

Had this tutor for two hours. She taught me more then what a professor taught me in a semester. Excellent explanation skills. Would recommend

Wonderful, Creative Native French Tutor!

Chrystele is wonderful! She can quickly discern your needs and your level, she is very prompt, she creates situations for conversation, documents and recorded sessions so you can review during the week. My specific needs for refreshing my (very rusty) French so I could travel with some degree of confidence are being met and exceeded with her tutoring. I highly recommend Chrystele!

Kathy, 3 lessons with Chrystele

Excellent Teacher. Will see again

Chrystele focuses her lesson plan on perfecting the basics, helping with pronunciation and base-line conversational skills. Personally, I had invested a lot of time studying on the app Duolingo—which helps with reading and writing. Chrystele’s teaching will help me be confident in speaking when I travel to France abroad.

Great class

The 2 times I’ve spent with my teach I’m already gaining confidence in learning French. She is extremely clear and patient when it comes to corrections. I am truly having a great time so far learning This most beautiful language ever.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

My son has been struggling with his advance French class and Chrystele has been great helping him build with his confidence, pronunciation, reviewing the grammar they are working on at school and providing him various tips. He loves his sessions.

Totti, 10 lessons with Chrystele

Building on basics.

It sounds simple, but Chrystele has shown us that having a basic mastery of French sounds and pronunciation is the key to improving. We are really focused this week on the different sounds of the French "e". My wife is working hard and she is very pleased with her progress

Improving his confidence in French and life

She is both patient and precise. Her encouragement is unparalleled. My son feels truly that he is making an accomplishment. He had missed so much class at school from being sick. His work with Chrystele has strengthened his pronunciation, which greatly improved his confidence. Confidence in one area makes it much easier to move forward in others. One day when he was too sick for his lesson, she went through his school assignments with me so I could better understand what he was being asked and where he is making mistakes. She is able to quickly analyze where to improve to get the best results. I strongly recommend her!
