I highly recommend Aurélie as a French tutor.  I began French lessons as an absolute beginner.  Aurélie has used a variety of different methods that have been very helpful and interesting in my learning the language.  As we’ve gotten to know each other this past year, she’s been able to identify strategies to help me learn more effectively.  It’s also been great to learn about the French culture as well through our lessons.  I have appreciated her patience, kindness, and encouragement throughout the learning process.  I continue to be very motivated to learn, and her approach to teaching makes it so easy to stay motivated.  She’s a wonderful teacher!

I studied with Aurélie for the past few months. She is an amazing teacher. Our first few lessons were on what I felt I needed most work in- as time went by Aurélie got to know me and she tailored my lessons according to my needs- any questions I had she always knew how to answer them. Aurélie’s personality and positive attitude was so refreshing. I would recommend her without a doubt! My confidence in speaking French went through the roof- 

I am very happy that I chose to reach out to Aurélie before moving to Paris for 6 months; I needed to brush up on the French skills I had acquired from years back and to get used to speaking and understanding French again. She is a great and very patient teacher, and she made sure to tailor the lessons so they fit my purpose and interests. In this way, the lessons became more and more relevant every time. I couldn't recommend her more!

Aurélie was such a pleasure to work with! I hadn't studied or spoken French for years so I was fairly nervous about speaking, but she made me feel immediately at ease. She was incredibly organized and flexible with scheduling our lessons, and always provided me with a variety of exercises and suggestions for additional practice outside of our weekly sessions. I cannot say enough good things about her. I learned a great deal and dramatically improved my French in the span of only a few months. If you want to improve upon your existing French or even start learning French from beginning, I definitely recommend choosing Aurélie as your professor!

Learning french as a beginner prior to taking classes with Aurélie was a nerve-wracking experience for me. My anxiety about speaking french with others was stagnating my learning progression. My initial encounter with Aurélie immediately eased my angst and validated her expertise for teaching french in a non-intimidating way. She is gentle and encouraging, yet provides an appropriate amount of challenge to advance your language skills. Her lessons are flexible and very accommodating of your language learning goals. To anyone who is considering taking french lessons, I give my highest praise and recommendation to Aurélie. She is more than a teacher, she is a trusted champion who will walk beside you on your path to french learning success!

Aurelie was great! I travel a lot and usually pick up what I need, but French gave me a lot of trouble. I needed to improve my conversational skills for when I worked in the Paris studio, and Aurelie tailor-made a program for me. She was available over Skype when I wasn't in Paris, she moved at the pace I needed, and she crafted exercises that involved subject matter that interested me. Aurelie also helped me understand a lot of the cultural differences that I experienced working in France. I'd recommend her anyone who needs to learn French, especially if you have very specific needs.

I feel so glad I had the chance to find Aurélie few weeks after moving to Paris!! I started from a very low level of French and I was scared it would have been very tough to study it. Thanks to her lessons I started to feel I could do it! She’s very kind, patient and professional! It’s a pleasure to study French with her. From the very first lesson she deeply listen to you and understands your goal, motivation, level of French and she creates a personalized program on your specific needs; it’s a very “tailor-made French experience 🙂 what are you waiting for? contact her now! Thank you Aurélie!"

I really enjoyed Aurélie’s class, her flexible tutoring schedule fits into young professionals and students schedule perfectly and she is always very well-prepared for the classes. I become more confident about speaking French under her encouragement and instructions. And her grammar teaching made my school’s French professor compliment me on my fast progression. Also she is super understanding and patient. There was one time due to my sudden change of time, she adjusted our meeting accordingly to Friday night and work with me over an hour on my French resume so that I can send it out more promptly to the recruiter. I appreciate Aurélie’s help a lot and highly recommend her to you internationals who are new to Paris and would like to tone up your French skills! Ps. I already suggested her to my classmate, and my classmate loves her teaching as well 😉

I thoroughly enjoy Aurélie´s lessons which are engaging and very different to the French classes I´ve had in the past. She makes them accessible and unique to your own interests and your objectives whilst making it a good challenge. I have never enjoyed grammar however, with Aurelie´s clear and patient approach I have a better understanding and feel more motivated to study it. Additionally, we have explored literature extracts, discussed current topics and looked at aspects of French culture. Time flies in her lessons and not only is she an inspiring teacher but a lovely person too which makes it a great atmosphere to learn in. I cannot recommend her enough! She makes you fall in love with the French language even more.

I love learning French with Aurelie. Her classes are fun, enjoyable and effective. She is a friendly professor that cares about her classes being good and about her students really learning and getting the most out of the courses. She is very clear with the grammar and formal stuff; but to make the classes dynamic, she complements the courses with fun videos, readings that are relevant for my current situation and conversations that make it more interesting and fun. Finally, I can say that she is very flexible and adapts the subjects and schedules to your needs. I really feel my French has improved a lot thanks to her. Overall a great class by a wonderful professor!

I had a great experience with Aurélie. She is very professional in her approach to teaching French as a second language. It took me some time to find the right books suitable for my style of learning and Aurélie was extremely accommodating during the process. After only ten classes I managed to finish two French grammar books with her help. We are now working with the Alter Ego+ (Methode de Français) series. These are the books that are used at the Alliance Française in Washington, DC and I am extremely happy with the way she leads each class. The material is engaging and her input is always helpful and gives me an inside look of French life and culture.  As a well travelled person, Aurelie brings a lot of personal experience to our weekly lessons. I highly recommend Aurelie as a French teacher.

I'm so glad I found Aurélie! She is so professional and always prepared for our lessons together. I love the flexibility and the fact that she modifies the lesson to exactly what I need. She is also extremely caring, patient, and down-to-earth. So easy to talk to. Plus, she loves to get creative with the lessons and push me to learn more and more. Thank you for being my teacher, Aurélie!

In my view, the possibilities to learn new languages are completely different today to what they were a number of years ago. In recent years there has been an explosion of online resources that facilitates language learning. I am one of those who use several online resources in my French studies. One of them being weekly Skype lessons together with Aurelie, and to me those sessions are very valuable. I think Aurelie really listens to my needs at the moment and adapts the lessons after me as a student. She is very pedagogical, and we mix grammatical exercises with conversation and exercises based on French texts. It feels like there are so many concepts in the French language that have fallen into place for me after we have worked them through together. She is also so encouraging and after our sessions a nice little sense of happiness prevails. I just feel very lucky to have Aurelie as a French teacher and I really recommend this site and her lessons to others!"

Aurélie’s classes are fun, effective and interactive. She provides you with all the tools you will need that will make learning french easy and exciting. I’m so thankful I found Paris O’clock, because of it, I have been able to not only make many french speaking friends, but it gave me the keys to explore my favorite culture in its native language. I would recommend Aurélie to anyone seeking to learn french!

I had just moved to France with very minimum french speaking skills when I stumbled onto Aurélie’s French class. The course was very customizable to what I needed to learn and she provided great tools to develop my skills (reading, grammar, oral, etc). She is very patient and will take the time to answer all of your questions. She also gave me great study techniques and a fun game to improve my French! I would absolutely recommend her course!

I cannot recommend Aurelie’s French lessons highly enough. The learning experience with her has been both, effective and fun! The subjects covered in the courses are customized to my learning needs and are balanced across grammar, reading, listening, etc. Additionally, she has made the courses dynamic and engaging with videos, stories and conversations related to subjects that she knows interest me. Finally, I can say that Aurelie is very patient, clear in her explanations and overall a great professor!

Aurélie makes French fun! She prepares stories, visuals, sound tracks and more for the lessons and orientates you towards learning French through doing things you naturally love to do anway. She listens to what you really need and gives you clear direction for self-study on the side so that you’re able to learn French fast. 10/10 would recommend!

Aurelie’s French class is excellent. She has so much enthusiasm and is very prepared. She is able to make all levels beginners feel comfortable, adapting the lesson for your needs and makes learning cheerful experience. She has got some creative and intuitive ways to teach and making you learn easily difficult terms and rules.

Aurélie is such a patient, kind, and thoughtful teacher. She explains French grammar rules so well, challenges you when you need it, and gives tons of positive feedback, too. She is a great resource and guide—you won’t be disappointed in her or your new French language skills! I can’t recommend her more.
