About Speak French like a native

EDUCATION M.A. French Literature, Sorbonne, Paris. M.A. American literature, Sorbonne, Paris I have extensive experience teaching French to native as well as non-native speakers. Additionally, I have gone myself through the process of aquiring a foreign language in my adult life. In the 15 years that I been teaching, I have had the opportunity to : - create a wide array of original material - train adolescents and adults for DELF and TCF exams - train students for the A.P. French exam and the international baccalaureate - train native speakers for the French Education nationale exams (Brevet des collèges, Baccalauréat de français). - provide tutoring services to native and non-native students and - help adults gain confidence and fluency with conversational French - design and implement an immersive curriculum for preschoolers - create teaching materials for the Q-Talk method (an image-based approach to language), My passion for language has led me to create a variety of educational materials such as lesson plans and exercises, language-based games and flashcards and a one year blog : "Le Mot du Jour", where I would post a word a day along with an illustration, quote, audio source and a definition. Like you, I have been through the complex process of acquiring a new language as an adult. To this day, it is one of the most enriching adventures I have gone on. No matter your goal, I hope that this journey into a foreign idiom may provide you with both a life-skill and an opportunity to discover as much about your own mind.

Zoe is an awesome and super patient teacher. She uses customized approaches to fit each student’s need and study experience!

Zoe is a wonderful teacher and I can’t say enough good things. She tailors each lesson to the student and teaches though conversation and storytelling, and provides supplemental materials for study between each lesson. She makes it easy to learn complex grammar concepts and vocabulary. I learn more quickly with her than I do any other method, and I’ve tried Rosetta Stone, high school and some university courses. Each lesson leaves me confident and excited about my progress. I’m so happy to have found her and recommend her to everyone of any level looking to improve their French. Merci Zoe!

Zoe is amazing! She knows french very well and helped me with an extremely difficult paper. I would recommend her 100%

I am on my 5th class with Zoe and she is a terrific teacher. I needed to brush up on what I had learned in school way back and already feel that I'm several steps further than where I left off. She's clear, organized, engaging and fun and always amazes me with the material she creates. I'm looking forward to our classes each week.
