Why people book a French tutor
Your tutor starts with sounds, greetings and everyday phrases, and explains in English or Spanish whenever you need it.
Practice ordering, asking for directions and small talk, so you can get by on day one.
Tutors can follow your book, homework and test dates, so each lesson backs up the class.
French and Spanish share a lot. A tutor who speaks both shows you the shortcuts and the false friends.
