Reviews
Guy is an amazing French teacher, he works on your level, at your pace, and never makes anything over complicated. Guy’s teaching skills are out of this world, but what makes working with him even better is the boatload of free resources he offers so you can continue learning on your own time. It’d be beneficial for him to hoard all the information for the paid lessons, he doesn’t do that at all, he doesn’t hesitate to help beyond your lessons with him. I’d recommend him again and again for anyone at any level looking to learn this difficult language.
Guy has been incredibly helpful and patient! I am completely new to learning French. He places a huge emphasis on learning the fundamentals of the language.
I never studied French in school. J'ai appris français phonétiquement dans les rues de Paris. J'ai commencé par apprendre tout l'argot. My French co-workers found this amusing. Guy immediately got that I was a different kind of student. That I have a different way of learning French. He has been very supportive and he has deep resources which he never hesitates to share. Il est génial. Finalement, Guy is fun to hang out with and speak French. He’s very good at engaging in conversation and senses where we need to go next to support me in my language journey. Our hour together always seems to pass seamlessly.
Guy is a wonderful teacher- some people are naturals with the ability to clearly explain material and understand how ro challenge you; and Guy does that beautifully.
Guy’s background as a former teacher really shows. He is patient and engaging with my teen, and goes above and beyond to give actionable feedback to parents based on his observations. He has a trove of extra materials to help students in-between sessions. He is consistent, which helps with forging good habits. Highly recommended!
I got lucky choosing Guy! This is my first time working with a language tutor and it has been so easy and stress free. I started working with him in order to pass a military language exam. He went out of his way to find out specific guidelines for this exam and has catered our studying to aid in success. He sends me exercises in his free time throughout the week, aside from our tutor sessions. 10/10 best deal and communication efforts. Will be here for the long haul!
Wow - he shamed me for asking him questions about his business. Was stern about his time. And then shamed me because my time ultimately didn’t match up. Wow, sorry my schedule didn’t align with yours
My son is taking French lessons with Guy, he loves his way of teaching and my son is always excited for French lessons with Guy.
Guy has been a huge help! After only a few lessons I already feel much more comfortable with my French-speaking ability thanks to his lessons. I especially liked that he chose important concepts to teach based on my specific needs to ensure I got the most out of our time.
