Bonjour, I am from France, and I enjoy foreign languages so much that I chose to obtain my bachelor’s degree in international interpreting and translating with French, English, and Spanish. I understand exactly what it takes to learn a foreign language, and I’m committed to make it an exciting and successful experience for you. I have been a private one-on-one tutor in Los Angeles for the past five years working both with adults and younger students, from beginner to advanced level. Nothing...

I have been a professional actress for over 15 years and I have had the pleasure to perform on stage in London, Paris and Los Angeles. In addition, I have appeared in several films and TV shows and I am a member of SAG-AFTRA, the union for professional performers. The years of professional training I have received both in Europe and in America combined with my professional experience would benefit acting students and help them build the confidence and technical tools they need in order to make their performing experience enjoyable as well as an opportunity for growth. If you need to prepare for a role at school or for an audition, please get in touch with me and let’s get you ready.

I've been working with Linda for over a month and loving the experience. She is very patient and reassuring. I am learning things I hadn't learned in high school/college classes. Our lessons are challenging and fun.

Allie F. from North Hollywood, CA
After having about a month of lessons with Linda, my spoken French skills have already greatly improved and I feel much more confident when I need to do spoken assessments in school. She's very kind and patient when I don't understand a concept, and is even available on Saturdays. Would highly recommend!

Linda is fun and wonderfully patient. I really appreciate that she is willing to work at my pace. I am looking forward to our next lesson.
Christine W. from Encino, CA
Linda is fantastic! Our son is meeting with her twice a week to help his comprehension and understanding of the French language. They speak the whole session in French and his confidence level is growing so much, only after two sessions. He looks forward to their next meeting!
Rosy R. from Valley Village, CA
Linda is an amazing and patient French tutor. She understands and utilizes the best approach to introducing a student to a new language. She addresses each lesson with direct tactics, and makes it fun to learn and enjoy. I highly recommend her for anyone needing help in learning French, as well as having a good source to listen from a native speaker how the language is pronounced and used. She is a remarkable asset to learning French.

First, a little about me to put this review into context: I am an adult man who took French in high school over 25 years ago. I have done very little speaking since then. Nevertheless, I believe my memory of French is good, and outside of being tutored, I am studying grammar and vocabulary on my own at home to fill in any gaps. I sought out Linda primarily to regain my proficiency (and hopefully) fluency in conversational French. As of writing this review, I have seen Linda for approximately four times now, and I find her to be very patient and pleasant. She corrects me when necessary (sometimes my pronunciation, sometimes my grammar), which I greatly appreciate. Apart from having conversations in our sessions, she also incorporates her own lesson plans - which up to now have focused primarily on developing my listening skills, - as well as suggests homework exercises and outside resources for extra practice. I currently intend to continue to use her services at least once per week, and based on my own experiences, I would recommend Linda.
