I'm having Zoom classes with Sophie and couldn't be happier! She is very attentive, patient, class-ready and fun. The exercises she prepares for homework are an great complement to the classes and the way she presents new subjects, given examples, makes the classes super interesting! 🙂

Coralie is great, very good feedback and easy to follow coursework, meets you at your level and corrects your pronunciation but not too much 🙂

I started my French-Learning journey with Learn French in Vancouver and I have no doubt but to recommend this centre. Class with Coralie is always cheerful. Coralie always welcomes students, tries to engage all the classmates during class. Even a student like me with zero level French can enjoy a lot for the last 8 weeks of beginner course. Looking forward to attend more of her class! 😀

Attended private zoom classes with Coralie who has been amazing! Originally applied for level 3 group classes but was recommended to do private classes which has been a great help so far! Coralie knew where to get started on the learning and tailor it to my needs.Would recommend this to anyone learning french from scratch or to just improve their knowledge of it!

I've been very pleased with my one-on-one conversation classes. My instructor Coralie makes useful corrections and suggestions to my spoken French, and has useful ideas for improving comprehension. All this is done in the course of friendly, casual conversation about subjects of mutual interest. My comfort level in French has notably increased.

I signed up for level 1 + 2 class with Coralie. It was great. Coralie makes learning French really fun as it should always be and shares a lot of good tips and stories behind the languages. I would highly recommend Learn French in Vancouver to anyone who's hoping to start learning this beautiful language.

I was a complete novice when I started French class with Coralie. After only a few weeks I feel like I know hundreds of vocabulary words and really have a strong grasp of French conjugation. Coralie was super efficient in class and gave us so much useful information and tips on how to speak French. I am going to continue taking French class here for many months to come as I believe this is a real path to fluency!

I have recently completed a series of Beginner Level 1 + 2 private French lessons with Lola. She is a wonderful teacher!. Due to the pandemic, Lola and I use ZOOM for my weekly lesson. She is a very warm person who makes learning pleasant and safe. Lola clearly knows her subject very well and has a gift for simplifying things. The lessons are practical and Lola is very knowledgeable and clear. I highly recommend Lola as a French teacher. I make these observations after teaching for many years myself. I am a lawyer who served for approximately a decade as an adjunct professor of law in the Faculty of Law at the University of British Columbia, and roughly 25 years as a lecturer with UBC’s Sauder School of Business.

I recently started private French classes with Coralie and all I can say is she is terrific from getting the best out of you whilst also making it fun and enjoyable at the same time. This is first time I can say I really look forward to my French classes now having joined this school, only regret is I didn't do it sooner. I highly recommend Coralie or any tutor of the learn French in Vancouver team as they are awesome and have courses to suit everyone.

I've been looking for a french school like this for so long. I've done little bits of french here and there, but always felt underwhelmed and like my teachers weren't really invested in my success. I just completed the level 1-4 consolidation course with Coralie, and for the first time I feel like I'm actually on the road to becoming fluent if I keep putting in the effort. Lea was also a huge help in ensuring that I was taking the right level for my ability from the beginning. Can't say enough good things about this school, and i'm looking forward to the next level!

Coralie is an excellent teacher. Really learned a lot from her. Loved the smaller classes as it made it easier to ask questions, work on exercises and pronunciation. Definitely hope to take more classes!

I have always wanted to learn French because I work in an industry where it is widely used. I speak other languages so I hoped it would be easier to learn another one. Lola is an excellent teacher! She is very patient and goes at my pace. She has made the learning experience very enjoyable and informative that I have decided to move on to level 2! Thank you Lola!

I’m currently taking French courses with Lola at Learn French and she is a great teacher! She’s extremely knowledgeable and is able to answer any questions I have. She is also very patient and encouraging when I make mistakes. She tailors the lessons to what am I interested in which makes it easier to practice speaking in French. I would highly recommend taking classes with Lola!

I love my classes; Lea and Lola ( my teacher) are very professional and understanding. I taught English as a language for 5 years so I can be pretty annoying and demanding in terms of the material and structure and have no complains. They are effective and fun. I would recommend them highly; I have taken group and private lessons and both I've enjoyed greatly.

Learn French in Vancouver provides highly accessible and rewarding French learning experiences. After my course, I feel confident to read, write and speak beginner levels of French, a result of patient teaching, thorough tutor feedback and the personalized approach of the programme. Coralie is one of the best tutors I have come across - she is extremely patient, well paced and attentive to detail, fielding challenging questions that are common to new language learners. I would recommend her and her classes to anyone - request for Coralie!

Great experience so far. I'm looking forward to continuing with conversation following the completion of all the lessons. So far I have done half in person with Lea and half via Skype (due to COVID19) with Coralie. Both teachers were fantastic! The flexibility, pacing and excellent teachers make this a must recommend for anyone wanting to learn or improve their French, in Vancouver 🙂

I haven't used my ability to speak French for over 25 years. I was hesitant at first and I regret not joining the group earlier..Coralie Crouzit was an excellent instructor, instilling confidence in each one of us. Thank you Coralie for tunning out whatever is left of my French Language!

Yasmina promptly visited my office for private lessons twice a week. It was an excellent experience, and Yasmina did a fantastic job coaching me along. She was very accommodating if I had to make a change in the schedule. I greatly appreciate all of Yasmina's hard work and teaching skills.

Great company for learning or brushing up on French skills! Lea is a wonderful and delightful instructor who really customized the lessons to help me improve where I needed it most. Highly recommend their classes for Government of Canada employees preparing for French SLE tests. Thanks to Lea, I felt confident in writing the exams and surpassed my targeted goal! Merci beaucoup

Professional instructor, great pace, and I appreciated the group dynamic and structure. I would recommend A1+A2 if you're looking to quickly establish a good foundation for future french learning. Bon courage!

I enrolled a beginner 1+2 course to improve my French. The teacher Prajwal was so nice, very professional and so enthusiastic at teaching! The group was small enough so we had plenty of time to practice the language in class. With the course, I gained confidence and motivation to keep learning French 🙂. I would definitely recommend Learn French in Vancouver!

I just completed a course and had an absolutely amazing experience learning with Lea. I had some experience with French in the past, but I learned so much in just 4 classes, but more importantly my confidence grew immensely! I feel that Lea tailored her feedback and encouragements to each participant depending on their skill level and improvement. I cannot wait to start the next course! This is the first time I have felt that I might actually be able to become bilingual (with much more practice and classes of course)!

I had some informal experience in learning French so it was hard to decide where I should start with classes. After completing the online test and having a great phone conversation with Lea we decided that private lessons would be the best way to tailor the curriculum to my level and allow me to progress the quickest. I chose Learn French in Vancouver because it appeared much more welcoming than the other organisations in town and this was absolutely my experience. The lessons were engaging, challenging, supportive and left me excited to go and do my home work. Lea provided a host of additional resources so i felt empowered to carry on with my own study and make the most of it. I will be going back to Learn French in Vancouver soon!

I have taken a private class with Clémence, who was very friendly and energetic. While we mainly focused on grammar, exercises, and short articles, we also had conversations that I found informative and fun. Highly recommended.

Starting from scratch, I did the four-week intensive course with Lea and I learned a ton of French. She's a great teacher, very patient, covers most of the A1 material but also does her own exercises to make learning fun!. I'm going to continue taking classes with her to develop my French skills. Thanks so much!

"I took the Level 1&2 Beginner course with Lea and I really enjoyed it. The class was small (5 people) and every student had equal opportunity to practice and ask as many questions as they want. Lea was very patient and took the time to explain everything."

I had a great time taking the beginner course at 'Learn French in Vancouver', the teaching was really good and everyone was very friendly. Classes went at the students' pace and the teacher was always happy to answer questions or explain things again. A great introduction to French culture as well as the language.

Yasmina is a fantastic teacher - knowledgeable, attentive and patient. She listens to the needs of his students, and draws from her extensive teaching experience to develop a tailored, very effective style.During private lessons, we focus on my everyday speaking and listening skills through casual conversation. Occasionally, we shift to traditional grammar drills. This method is effective and fun for me - times slips by during our meetings. In her group classes, she follows a more structured, yet still very engaging teaching system. They provided me with valuable grammar practice, since it's the most challenging aspect of French for me (as I suspect it is for many others).I am really satisfied with our progress so far. I am constantly getting better at expressing myself and understanding phrases in French TV shows or movies. Yasmina has made learning my 3rd language very fun and rewarding.Merci, Yasmina! (Et...je pense qu'il y a de la vie sur d'autre planètes.)
