About Mathilde's French Tutoring

I am a native French tutor with more than 15 years of experience in tutoring people of all ages, beginners, intermediate, or advanced students, and had excellent results with them all. I worked with a few tutoring agencies, Wyzant, Parliament Tutor, etc. as well as on my own. I am very patient and understanding. I can adapt easily to everyone's needs. It gives me great pleasure to help people struggling with homework, reading, writing, and test preparation and see how well they perform afterward. I enjoy working with adults as well, whether they are willing to learn a new language or practice and improve their French knowledge. You are never too young or too old to learn!

Mathilde is a wonderful person and an outstanding French teacher! My daughter has had several lessons with her, and she absolutely loves her. The weekly lessons are fun, engaging, and extremely valuable. My daughter is excited for the lesson every week, and her French has improved significantly since starting with Mathilde. I highly recommend Mathilde for any person looking to learn or improve their French!!!

Mathilde is God sent for my daughter. In just one month, my daughter’s grades went up immensely. The reason being, Mathilde gentle nature, she connects so well with my daughter. She makes the class so engaging. It really matters that Mathilde is a native French speaker and not just a teacher of French. Although we are in different time zones, Mathilde always makes it possible to help my kiddo when she needs it even during the school week. She’s a fantastic teacher and we love her for that!

I interacted with Mathilde by phone as our initial introduction. I’m waiting to receive my French language materials in the mail before we set up first lesson.

I needed a native French speaker to improve my conversational skills. As an advanced student, I needed a tutor who could just talk about any topic with me. Mathilde is fantastic. Her interests are wide ranging and help me expand my vocabulary and pronunciation. I highly recommend her!!!

We’ve only had a few sessions so far, but the difference in confidence is already noticeable. Mathilde creates a supportive environment, gives clear explanations, and offers gentle corrections that build skills without discouraging our high schooler. We’re excited to continue working with her.

Mathilde has been an incredible French tutor for both me and my children (ages 10 and 11). She has a wonderful ability to adapt her teaching style to suit different ages and learning levels. She keeps the kids engaged with fun, interactive lessons while also challenging me in a way that builds my confidence and fluency. Her lessons are well-structured, supportive, and tailored to our individual needs. We’ve all made noticeable progress and genuinely enjoy learning with her. I highly recommend Mathilde to anyone looking for a skilled and patient French tutor for both adults and children.

It’s been 30 years since I’ve been in school. I wanted to learn French. I found Mathilde I’m only a month into the studies and I can feel I can understand . She explains everything in details. She teaches not only a grammar but teaches spoken French so I’m very happy I found her. I would highly recommend her to everyone who wants to learn French from the beginning or if you just want to go to travel to be polite to the French speaking countries.

Mathilde is not only a native-speaking French tutor of the top echelon, she is also extremely flexible and highly responsive to our needs and schedule, making our sessions both productive and enjoyable. She is a fun and special human being. We look forward to each week with her.
