About French Tutor from France
I am Eric, a native of France, where I was born, raised, and educated, and where I lived for forty-four years. I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Classical Literature (Licence en Lettres Classiques) and a Master’s degree in Modern Literature (Maîtrise en Lettres Modernes). Early in my career, I chose to work within the private sector, specializing in French as a Second Language instruction for foreign professionals and immigrant employees. As an independent language consultant, I provided linguistic training and cross-cultural communication support to personnel from major French corporations and institutions, including Air France, L’Oréal, SNCF, Gaz de France, and Sanofi. For more than thirty years, I have taught French in France, the United Kingdom, and, more recently, the United States. Over the course of my career, I have guided students from complete beginner level to full linguistic fluency through a rigorous and highly individualized teaching methodology that I developed over decades of professional practice. My students come from a wide range of academic, professional, and personal backgrounds: complete beginners, travelers preparing for extended stays abroad, secondary-school and university students, and adults seeking to reactivate or strengthen French previously studied earlier in life. I also work with advanced speakers who wish to engage with the language at a far deeper intellectual and cultural level through the study of French literature, cinema, philosophy, stylistics, and linguistic nuance. Among my students have been American high school French teachers seeking to refine and deepen their own command of the language, as well as university professors requiring assistance with book translation, advanced textual analysis, and highly specialized linguistic or stylistic questions. To provide maximum flexibility and accessibility, I offer private instruction via Zoom and Microsoft Teams to students throughout North America and internationally. Over the years, remote instruction has become an integral component of my pedagogical approach and has consistently proven highly effective in promoting linguistic development, sustained progress, and individualized engagement. Please feel free to contact me for any additional information or to arrange an initial lesson.
Reviews
Éric has been a great French tutor.His methods of teaching the language really helps me to break it down and understand what exactly it is that I am doing and why.
Eric is a true pleasure to work with! I’m thankful to have him as my French tutor! He is engaging and gets you to use the words/grammar etc that he is teaching you.
Eric is an exceptional tutor—professional, patient, and thoughtful. He takes the time to clearly explain the complexities of the French language while keeping lessons engaging and motivating. Highly recommended!
Being a foreign languages teacher myself, I was aiming only for the best. I was looking for a native French teacher, with plenty of experience teaching French language, culture and phonetic; who is professional, serious and understanding of students different backgrounds and... my Goodness, he is all of that and more. He challenges me to do my best with the phonetic. He's very knowledgeable and can explain the origins of the words. You cannot get that from the average French teacher. In addition he keeps the lessons interesting and provides plenty of original materials. He definitely won't waste your time. He is worth every penny. Merci beaucoup Prof. Eric!
Éric est fantastique! In a short time, he has managed to correct so many of the bad habits we built up in beginning French. Additionally, he creates a fun and engaging environment for us. We have learned so much in just a month. We are fully dedicated to staying with him for a very long time, indeed.
Eric is an excellent French teacher! As a native speaker with years of experience, his teaching methods are effective and engaging. He's very patient and kind! I never feel stressed or criticized during lessons. He answers all my questions. He provides a great balance between grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation. I've made great progress in just a few months. Highly recommended!
Eric connected with my son. He is a caring tutor who really invested in my son's education.
Eric is the BEST! He is so kind and encouraging, and is always so patient with answering any questions I have. I am grateful to have found him! Thanks, Eric!
I have studied French for 20+ years and have worked with many teachers and tutors in that time. Éric is among the very best that I have worked with. It is clear that his experience has prepared him to work with students of all levels and learning styles. Éric tailors the classes to my interests and aptitudes and it never feels like we're working from a stale or one-size-fits-all lesson plan. What's more, he is always on time, very professional and a great conversationalist. I am very pleased to recommend Éric to any student of French. I look forward to working with him for a long time.
