TESTIMONIALS
I learned more in 1.5h with Adèle than in 2 months with my language apps.
— Jason, Frontline programs Manager
I highly recommend Adele as a French language tutor for any student at any level. She makes every class productive, interesting, and fun. She has a wonderful knack for tailoring her instruction to the level and interests of each student. Everyone learns differently, and Adele is a master at finding the best way to click with each student.

I would describe Adele as sharp, curious, and very patient.
I became Adele's student a year ago when I could barely put two words together in French. A couple of lessons in, we started talking in French about subjects that were interesting and relevant: work, family, etc. The lessons were energizing and fun, and I felt motivated to speak with whatever words I had.
Today, our conversations are livelier than ever. I can finally talk with my French fiance in French and it is not super boring :).
Adele is an enthusiastic and talented teacher, with her you will learn fast while enjoying the process!
