French in Indy

I felt very comfortable talking with the instructor and she was very helpful in contributing to my learning. I think that I liked this class even more because of the professor. She was great, fun, and made me feel good about making mistakes and pushing myself beyond my limits.

Amandine’s process is to tailor each tutorial session to our individual progress and needs (as she does for all her students that we have met). Her approach is to assess our progress at the end of each lesson and tailor our homework to best prepare us for the next week…so we are always moving forward on a path, but never left without full understanding of the material we covered. It is very evident that she has put a great deal of time into preparing each lesson to help us advance.

In my one-on-one weekly lessons with Amandine, I am not self-conscious when trying to express myself. She allows me to try to express myself without rushing to correct mistakes. Instead, she kindly assists after I am finished with suggestions on vocabulary, pronunciation and grammar. My French has vastly improved because of her.

Professor A. Pohardy is very helpful and never hesitated to provide assistance. I like how she laid out the exams and the grading scale. She did a great job and I would definitely take her class again!

Amandine is a wonderful French teacher. I have been taking lessons from her for about a year, and my French has improved dramatically. She is responsive to your preferred methods of learning, but will also try to take you out of your comfort zone with impromptu conversations and exercises from a variety of sources, such as videos and current events. She is communicative and organized, and will adjust her schedule whenever possible. Her rates are very reasonable. I would highly recommend Amandine to anyone wanting to learn and improve their French. Elle est géniale!

Amandine is a wonderful, professional guide through the mysteries of modern French language, even for those of us who never studied it in school. I have been surprised at how much I've learned over the past several months, and am now able to have conversations in French with my wife, who is fluent in French. She is a native francophone, with a background in French journalism. I highly recommend her for advancing your French language skills, whatever your level.
