How It Works

 

1. Placement Test

We begin with a placement test to accurately assess the learner’s current language level, communicative competencies, and specific areas for improvement.

2. Personalized Learning Plan

Based on the results, we design a fully tailored learning plan aligned with the learner’s objectives, professional context, and target outcomes.

3. Select or Book the Right Program

The learner then chooses and/or books the coaching package or program that best matches their needs, timeline, and learning goals.

If you’re looking to learn from someone who can help you reach your full potential in French, Steven is that person. I’ve worked with Steven for over a year now, and he played an integral role in helping me develop my French language skills. A sense of compassion and understanding perfectly complements his vast range of theoretical and practical knowledge. Je parle beaucoup mieux le français grâce aux conseils de Steven, et n'importe qui aurait de la chance d'apprendre avec lui.

Among the dozens of language teachers I have had over the years, I would rank Steven among the best. He is personable and engaging, organized and encouraging. Critically, he helped me targets gaps in my knowledge and provided a clear path and study resources to help me achieve my goals. Steven has a teaching background and he was able to communicate concepts in a clear manner. On an institutional level, Steven developed and implemented a new language program in our Branch. There had been nothing in place and he left it well organized so that a new teacher could step in and take over seamlessly.
