About Estelle
Hello and welcome!
Bonjour! I’m Estelle, a native French speaker from Ardèche and an experienced French tutor with a creative and structured approach to learning French.
I’m also an artist, singer-songwriter, and performer , which strongly influences the way I teach. I pay close attention to pronunciation, rhythm and natural expression, helping students feel confident when speaking.
My goal is to make learning French clear, engaging and approachable, whether you’re a beginner or more advanced. I enjoy working with motivated learners who like to understand how the language works and are open to being gently challenged in a supportive environment.
I particularly love guiding learners through grammar step by step until everything makes sense, often using colour-coding and visual tools to improve clarity and retention.
Creativity is part of my teaching style (games, culture, and sometimes music ) are included when they support learning, always optional and adapted to each student.
Experience & Credentials
I have over 8 years of experience teaching French to children, teenagers and adults, both online and in UK schools, in one-to-one lessons and small groups.
I started tutoring French while living in Iceland , initially working with children aged 4 to 12, and quickly expanded to teaching adult learners in Iceland, England and France.
I hold:
• CAVILAM French as a Foreign Language certificate
• MOOC FLE certificate (Alliance Française / French Embassy network) - French as a Foreign Language
• BAC L (Languages & Arts)
I am also DBS checked
I am bilingual in French and English , with some knowledge of Spanish and Icelandic (I haven’t practiced them for a while, so I’m a bit rusty!).
As a lover of ancient history, I began learning Gaulish, an extinct Celtic language I sometimes use in my art and music and more recently started learning Welsh (I’m still a beginner ).
So, as a language learner myself, I understand the challenges students face and adapt my teaching accordingly.

How do my lessons work?
Lessons focus on real communication, with clear and progressive explanations.
We usually combine:
• Guided conversation
• Learning a new grammar or vocabulary tool ️
• Immediate practice ️
• Reusing new elements in speaking
• Cultural or creative activities when relevant
Each student has access to a shared document to track progress, including:
• Clear grammar explanations
• Cheat-sheets
• Useful vocabulary
• Exercises we complete together
• Take-home exercises when needed
• Personalised resources as required

For best results
Regular practice is key : even 5 minutes a day can make a real difference without feeling overwhelming.
I also offer shorter sessions for children .
