Caroline is a wonderful French teacher! I had a 3 day private course with Caroline, followed by a further 4 day private course with my father. The lessons were pitched at exactly the right level for us and Caroline adapted the lessons according to our interest areas and the grammar points we wanted to focus on. My father and I enjoyed our French course so much and will be repeating the experience next year in Paris with Caroline. I highly recommend Caroline to anyone who would like to improve their French, whatever their level! She is a very knowledgeable, kind and encouraging French teacher. Merci beaucoup, Caroline!

I recently spent a month in Paris and was fortunate to find Caroline as a one-on-one tutor during my stay. I very much enjoyed our sessions, which were a combination of conversation and grammar. Caroline is professional, patient and customized the content of our lessons based on my interests (e.g., wine, culture, and food)! I highly recommend her personalized approach to language instruction. Additionally, she has a charming personality and is fully engaged in her student's success. I will most certainly work with her again when I return next year.

I arrived in Paris with nothing more than vague notions of French, and Caroline proved invaluable in getting me up to a conversational level in record time. Her individualised approach allowed me to focus on the relevant topics without following a preset curriculum - something that would not have been possible in a regular class. Classes were the perfect balance of grammar and conversation - never dull and, most importantly, always focused on communication, which quickly allowed me to speak confidently. I would definitely recommend Caroline's method!

I can't say enough good things about the intensive French course I took with Caroline. If you are serious about learning French, she'll be your best teacher. She is a very experienced, humorous and patient language teacher. I have learned a lot and continue to apply the knowledge still today whilst living in France. Highly recommended.

I spent 6 weeks in Paris and Caroline helped me dramatically improve my reading, writing, speaking and overall comprehension! She adapted her teaching and lessons to my lifestyle and learning curve -- spending more time on areas that were difficult for me and teaches phrases that I would frequently use in my personal circumstances. She also has great recommendations around Paris to get the most out of your time visiting!

I found myself in Paris for a month and wanted to use the opportunity to improve my rudimentary French. I explored the option of private tutoring. Caroline came highly recommended and the one-to-one classes were perfect. We focused on reading, speaking, and listening and I found a noticeable improvement in all three over the course of the month. Caroline is friendly and professional. I felt very comfortable in the lesson and there was a great mix of conversation and exercise. 100% would book again when I return.

Caroline is professional, always on time, and she's an amazing language instructor. Not to mention, she has the utmost patience, as I do not always say or pronounce things correctly. Her teaching style helps you perfect your speaking, grammar and pronunciation. I look forward to seeing her every week for my French lesson.

I took some private French lessons to prepare some important presentations that I had to do for my work/studies. Caroline really helped me a lot (finding the right expressions, improving the grammar, pronunciation). Furthermore, she showed real interest in my work and even looked up some specific vocabulary for me. And Caroline is a very nice person. I can definitely recommend her classes.

If you are looking for a great French language teacher in Paris, you've found her. Caroline is one of the best language teachers I have ever known. I say this with the confidence of someone who is a language teacher herself and who has taught Russian for many years in New York. I started regularly coming to Paris three years ago. I was looking for a tutor to help me improve my practical French. When I started working with Caroline I quickly realized how lucky I was to have found her. She knows the language in all its aspects and knows how to teach it effectively. She explains difficult points clearly and with great precision. She provides all the necessary materials (the texts and exercises that she gives are interesting and fun to do). I don't think there was a question regarding grammar, usage or etymology that she could not answer. She is particularly good at explaining how modern conversational language works, what is proper to say in various situations, and how not to make "faux pas." She has a remarkable ability to be at once easy going and thorough. On many occasions after our conversations I would receive an email from her with additional information on grammar, word usage, cultural peculiarities, etc. Practicing conversational French with her has been extremely rewarding. Caroline turned out to be exceptionally attentive to my own personal needs. Her experience teaching in America gives her insight into my "typical" English-language mistakes and misperceptions as well as an immediate understanding of how to remedy existing problems. Her encouragement is wonderful. Studying with Caroline I gained confidence as well as improved my ability to speak. I also received a lot of important cultural insights. Talking to Caroline on various topics - from complex linguistic questions to the quality of baguettes in the local bakery - has been delightful. In short, she is an ideal teacher/tutor for my needs - for my relatively advanced practical experience with shaky underpinnings. And as a language teacher myself, I think I have high expectations: Caroline more than meets them, and so I keep coming back. I hope I am as satisfying a pupil for her as she is a wonderful tutor for me.

Having just moved to Paris, I needed a local (same time zone) tutor to help me with my French lessons. Caroline has been a perfect match. She quickly assessed my current ability and has been working diligently to help me progress. She is patient and readily adapts the plan to the individual student. I recommend her highly!
