Bonjour, I’m Charles

I teach French so you can feel more like yourself when you speak it.

I’ve taught French as a Foreign Language since 2014. What keeps me interested is not perfect grammar on a page—it is the moment you stop rehearsing, react naturally and realise that the French is already yours.

A little about my work

I’ve been teaching adults since 2014.

I work with people from different countries who need French for work, a move, an exam, a relationship or everyday life. Their goals vary, but the frustrating gap is often the same: they know more than they can say when the moment arrives.

How I teach

Clear guidance, realistic practice and feedback you can actually reuse.

I do not want to spend the whole lesson talking at you. My job is to create the conditions for you to speak, notice what gets in the way and try again with better tools.

We start where you get stuck

A short speaking sample shows whether retrieval, structure, confidence or pronunciation is interrupting your message.

We practise your real situations

Meetings, relocation tasks, social exchanges and exam prompts give our work a concrete direction.

I correct with a purpose

I choose feedback that improves clarity and gives you something useful to practise again.

English is a tool, not a crutch

A concise explanation can remove confusion; then we go straight back to using French.

Personal, wherever you live

One teacher, one learner, one goal at a time.

My business is based in France, but I work online with adults internationally. I check scheduling with you personally before we begin.

01

You work directly with me.

02

Your practice is built around your life.

03

Your time zone is checked before enrolment.

Let’s start simply

Tell me what you wish you could say more easily in French.

Start with the free check, or send me a message if you already know the conversation you want to change.
