I am a complete beginner. I have never spoken a word of French, I lack confidence but I would love to learn this language.

That is not a problem. I shall build your confidence and help you overcome your fears to speak and write in French.

When can I get started?

Whenever you wish. Whether you're a complete beginner or on the point of total fluency, you can begin on any day of the week, and for as many days, weeks or months as you wish. Before beginning, we'll discuss your needs and desires at length.

How many hours of lessons per day shall I take?

It depends on the goals you want to attain. It also depends on your determination. Once I have a clearer idea of all these elements, then
we shall decide together on how many hours of lessons you shall need to take.

Do I need French language textbooks?

I shall recommend you the right books once you have started the course.

I am a total beginner but I need to learn a language for business or professional reasons.

That won't be a problem. We'll work on your professional target vocabulary from the first class.

I am an advanced-level speaker and I'm having trouble finding training on a high-enough level. Many schools simply refuse to accept a student with my level of competence, yet I know I can learn much more.

I do recognize the special needs of very advanced language students and help them make just as much progress as the less advanced students, without being held back by the group approach.
