Salut, moi c'est Marie !
I'm a qualified French as a Foreign Language (FLE) teacher based in Orsay, in the Paris-Saclay area, with experience teaching in leading French institutions such as Alliance Française de Paris, Université Paris Saclay and Télécom Paris.
Since 2020, I've been helping adults from around the world take their French to the next level: from speaking "good French" to communicating with greater fluency, confidence and precision.
I specialise in intermediate and advanced learners. My personalised lessons combine meaningful conversation with targeted work on vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation and natural, everyday French.
Of course, it is always important to expand your vocabulary and knowledge. However, my goal is also to help you use the French you already know spontaneously, naturally, and with confidence.
French lessons for intermediate and advanced adults
B1, B2 and C1 are exciting, but often challenging, stages of learning French.
You already know a lot, yet you may feel like your progress has slowed down. You hesitate, search for the right words and want to understand more, speak more naturally and express yourself with greater precision.
This is exactly the challenge I love working on with my students: helping you move beyond that plateau and find your identity in French, be that in a personal, professional or academic context.

Why Learners Trust French With Marie
Marie is an excellent teacher—extremely professional and personable. She does a great job of adapting her own verbal complexity when speaking and makes relevant corrections without ever interrupting the flow of conversation. She always comes prepared with interesting subject matter and comprehensively documents useful words, phrases and concepts, which is really helpful for reference use outside of the courses. She also approaches exam preparation (in case for the DALF C1) in a strategic way, drawing from a wide array of real-life sources and addressing all facets of language through different media types. She's great at communicating and simplifying grammatical concepts without it ever feeling too “textbook”. It’s a difficult balance and she strikes it pretty perfectly. I highly recommend Marie !
