When I moved to France, some of my US students came right along with me in a virtual classroom. We were delighted to discover just how effective and efficient phone lessons could be. It's a fascinating learning method that works really well for most adult students. One-on-one lessons quickly build your listening comprehension, vocabulary and fluency. Imagine how well you'll do face to face when you can successfully hold your own in a phone conversation in French! For most adults, communicating in a foreign language is as much a psychological challenge as a linguistic one. My online classes quickly evaporate that adult tendency of not wanting to make mistakes and quickly develop much greater language flexibility. Communication is the name of the game as you develop skills that help you say what you have to say, ask questions, and understand responses. In short, you develop a solid base for communicating in French. When you find yourself toe to toe with a French speaker, you're already two steps ahead of the game. Flexible scheduling is another advantage to online classes: you choose a lesson time and length that fit your busy life. I work primarily with adults and have developed effective tools designed for adult English-speakers learning French. My current client base consists primarily of American businessmen and women with busy personal and professional lives. I've been teaching French since 1990, at universities and private language schools in the U.S. and France. I've been giving online phone classes since 2005.
