liesl and isabelI  have years of experience tutoring students from middle and high school as well as college. Oakwood, LILA (Lycee International de Los Angeles), Flintridge, Campbell Hall, Notre Dame, Harvard Westlake, SOCES, UCLA, USC, just to name a few. Typically students drastically improve their grades within a few weeks, from C’s and B’s to A- and A’s. I remove the barriers that prevent the student from clearly understanding and enjoying the process of learning a language. Typically my students become very motivated to learn and speak French. One recent student who was struggling with B- in French has been getting straight A’s and loves French so much now that her parents are sending her on an immersion summer program in France. I am located in Studio City/Sherman Oaks area.

Before, I had been getting mainly C’s and B’s in my French class; now, with Alain’s help, I have gotten consistent A’s. He makes it very easy to understand the French language, and interesting as well. I feel really confident that I will succeed in French and enjoy it!”  Natalie Reeves


annie french studen t“When I was struggling to even keep up in my French II class, I met with Alain for the first time. He was so patient with me and always went the extra mile to make sure I was taken care of and well prepared for class. The best thing about Alain was that he was so flexible and able to work with me around my hectic volleyball schedule. When I was desperate, he made himself available on sometimes as short as a day’s notice. Alain helped me take my French to the next level and made me feel hope for my success.” – Annie Notre Dame HS student
