      Testimonials

      I love the logistical benefit of being able to attend the online class from anywhere.
      Agnes is very patient, innovative and resourceful. The online courses she offers include many opportunities for the students to read and speak aloud, with gentle correction as needed. We learn from videos, news casts, songs, dialogues, student presentations, conversation, puzzles and quizzes, reading out loud, and listening to Agnes read to us. The small break-out rooms allow 2 to 3 students to work on a topic, such as “1 minute for 1 book” with Agnes able to join in to assist.  The online platform allows Agnes to make full use of all that technology offers and I really enjoy it.  For me personally, I feel less shy and have a lot more confidence online than I do in a classroom setting.  I have progressed significantly with written and verbal communication, grammar, pronounciation, comprehension, and confidence, thanks to Agnes.  I strongly recommend Agnes and I am very excited to have the opportunity to continue studying with her.

      I have recently had the pleasure of taking French classes on line with Agnes! Thanks to Agnes I had a really positive and successful experience.  Agnes is wonderful at creating a relaxed and professional online environment.  Through a variety of themes that were often inspired by my personal interests, like gardening and French culture, I was encouraged to speak French while acquiring new vocabulary, improving my prononciation and gaining confidence speaking in a conversation.  Whether you identify as a beginner of the French language or you are seeking to improve your existing French language I am confident that Agnes will adapt her teaching to your level, interests and goals. I strongly recommend Agnes to anyone who wants to learn French or improve their French, in a fun way, without stress.

      Agnes is a warm, caring, dynamic, and focused person. These qualities also make her a wonderful French instructor. She consistently places the goals of her students in the forefront, creating lessons that include various subjects to help students add to their vocabulary repertoire; exercises and homework to increase their grammar skills; and many opportunities in class, both as a group and as individuals, to practice and increase fluidity in conversation. In addition, she offers many suggestions to help students influence their own learning outside of class. Agnes is generous, always taking time to explain and clarify the intricacies of the French language, which are many. During the two years that I have been her student, both privately  and in a group setting, my French conversation skills have improved notably. My comfort level in speaking French has increased as has my range of vocabulary and my grammar skills. I consider myself fortunate to have such an excellent instructor.

      I was a student of French with Agnes for several years, during which time she helped me a great deal in my French studies.  She assisted me a lot in obtaining my DELF diplomas in levels B1 and B2.  I was particularly strong in the area of oral French.  As a result,  I achieved 100% in that area in my exam.  She was always conscientious and punctual for lessons.  I owe her a lot throughout this period.

      Agnes is, very simply, a marvellous instructor!  She is the best French teacher I’ve ever had.  She does an amazing amount of preparation for each class, using a wide range and type of source materials, then combines them with a terrific sense of humour and a ton of creative energy to create a warm, inviting learning experience.  Her advance preparation means you learn a lot in a short period of time, all while having a lot of fun.  My very rusty French has been improving quickly and I’m enjoying every minute of it.  I can’t recommend her highly enough!

      I was fortunate to attend a series of eight Agnes’ online French workshops. I wasn’t convinced I could survive two hours online but it turns out I loved it. Her sense of humour, charming smile and comfort with the technology made the online experience fun and user-friendly. The mix of activities – conversation, student presentations, grammar discussions, polls and quizzes, all with Agnes’s encouragement and correction – gave the students a variety of ways to learn and interact in French. I even appreciated the homework – and the fact that Agnes followed up by email when required. It was definitely the best French class I have taken – I’ll be back for more. Merci beaucoup Agnes!

      I started a weekly one-on-one sessions with Agnes almost three years ago after I finished several beginners’ courses at Alliance Française.  She has been a great teacher, not only teaching me French grammar, words and phrases, but also French cultures to get to know more about France.  Learning about French symbols and the motto of France (Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité), as well as about wine and cheese are just a few of many things I have enjoyed very much in the lessons with her.
      She makes lessons fun yet a bit challenging, that makes me very motivated and passionate to learn.  When I want to learn something more specific or something different, she prepares lessons for me, so I always feel lessons are very well catered especially for me.  I will continue to learn French from her, and hope to make more progress to be able to speak French.

      I truly enjoyed the workshops I attended in a group setting. Learning French was fun and we were given many useful tips that helped us to understand and to speak French effectively. Susan W.

      I studied with Agnes one-on-one for two years.  How I looked forward to my lesson each week!  She understood my learning style and knew how to help me make sense of the grammar concepts.  Agnes has a genuine love of teaching and is always kind, patient and positive.  During our time together I passed the DELF A2 and B1 exams and cultivated a love of the French language which continues today.
