My teaching approach?
👉 We’ll train your ear to natural speech and speed thanks to audio exercises. This will help to make French sound less fast and more familiar. We’ll focus on practical French, the grammar you need to express yourself clearly, the vocabulary and expressions that are directly connected to your goal. We’ll learn practical French for your profession, the French you need to make it your French course.
✏️ You will always get the lessons’s notes at the end of each session so you can stay fully focused during the sessions and review everything afterward.
What my students say
I followed French courses with Lucie, I really liked her approach, very practical and tailored to my needs. We did a mix between exercises and preparing French meetings I had scheduled.

Je me permets de recommander vivement Lucie pour ses compétences et son expertise exceptionnelles dans l’enseignement du français des affaires. J’ai récemment suivi un cours de français des affaires avec Lucie, et j’ai été profondément impressionné par sa capacité à comprendre les situations professionnelles réelles et à donner des conseils pratiques sur les meilleures approches.
La compréhension approfondie de Lucie des contextes professionnels et ses méthodes d’enseignement adaptées ont considérablement amélioré mes compétences linguistiques et ma confiance en moi dans des environnements professionnels. Ses connaissances étaient inestimables et directement applicables à mon travail.
Je suis convaincu que le dévouement, les connaissances et l’approche pratique de Lucie font d’elle un excellent choix pour toute personne souhaitant améliorer sa maîtrise du français des affaires.

Enormously good experience with Lucie as a French teacher. She adapts the individual lessons to your professional context and your personal request. She prepares the lessons well and teaches you a lot in a short time in a relaxed way. Highly recommended!

Practical information
How does it work?
You can click on the red button “book a lesson”. You will be directed to a form where you’ll need to answer questions about your goals and profession. I’ll read it carefully and get back to you as soon as possible. If we are a good fit, I’ll send the link to proceed to the payment and book the classes.
Then, we’ll have weekly online classes of 1h each (Microsoft Teams or Google Meet), ideally on the same day and at the same time. This way it is easier to make it a regular event for both of us and create a weekly French routine for you!
That being said, we can always be flexible when necessary!
How much?
Each class is 45€ and I bill 4 classes at a time. That makes a total of 180€ that will need to be paid ahead of time.
If you need to cancel or postpone, I ask you to let me know at least 48 hours before our meeting, as I plan my days around my private students and a spot booked for you is a spot I cannot give to someone else.
