Nicole
French Language Tutor with Years of Experience and Excellent Reviews
Looking for a French tutor with years of experience, great reviews and who has all of the materials you'll need? I have tutored and taught French for over ten years and have worked with students of all different ages and from all over the world. I strive to make lessons meaningful, fun, and fulfilling. When you are learning a language, you certainly want it to make a difference in your day-to-day life and in real-world situations. Whether you're planning to travel to a Francophone country,...
proofreading
ESL/ESOL
English
writing
During my many years of undergraduate and graduate coursework, I wrote many papers, from short essays to 35+ page research projects. I have proofread dozens upon dozens of papers and have taught writing for over seven years. But it's not just grammar and proofreading... there is so much more! I believe that I would be a great tutor for you or your family member, especially if the person in mind is considering college admissions. Essays are very important when applying to various programs and universities, and so often it's that first impression that counts. My schedule is very flexible. Please contact me if you have any questions!
reading
I studied literature for years, and reading is certainly one of my lifelong passions. I find that helping others learn to read and helping others with their reading skills very rewarding. I graduated from the University of Kansas with BAs in French and Italian and an MA in French Literature. I have also taught French for over seven years, and much of my time was focused on teaching reading. My schedule is very flexible. Please contact me if you have any questions, I think I'd be a great tutor for you or your family member!

To date, I have had 20+ French sessions thus far (about 30 hours) working with Nicole. She is very competent in foreign languages, well-organized, and cares about her students. She has shared a plethora of language resources we me over the past month and has designed a student specific lesson plan to help me achieve my French proficiency goals. She carries herself as a professional and is always on-time and prepared to adjust to the needs of the student. She pushes me into new territory during our lessons! Highly recommended for any student desiring to improve language skills.
Susan R. from Overland Park, KS
This was our first lesson with Nicole. My daughter was so excited after her lesson; she connected immediately with Nicole. She gave us resources, etc. to have my daughter work on her own. She made it interesting and fun for my daughter. Update: Nicole has made such a great connection with my daughter. She absolutely loves her sessions and is learning so much. Thanks Nicole!
Khrystian L. from Kansas City, MO
I had never studied a language before and decided to spend a year learning French. I'm so glad I found Nicole online. As Nicole has taught at a university level for many years I wasn't sure what to expect for a one on one learning experience, but she has proven to be an excellent private tutor! She is professional, fun, encouraging and positive, and goes as slow or as fast as I need through the material. She is also very flexible and is very easy to get a hold of to change or make plans with, which has been perfect for my schedule. It helps to know that she herself learned French years ago and is incredibly fluent, so she can relate to the process of starting from scratch. I would highly recommend her tutoring for any age or level!
Laura R. from Lenexa, KS

Jesse H. from Lawrence, KS
Nicole helped me improve my grammar and increase my vocabulary quickly. She was able to adapt my lessons to areas where I needed the most help.
Robert S. from Shawnee, KS
Good conversational practice. I'm feeling more at ease about discussing what we each did during the previous week. Then we'll review homework from another French course or have a guided discussion on another subject.
Diane K. from Olathe, KS
My daughter wants to become fluent in French and has had many French tutors. Nicole tops them all. She is organized, friendly and patient. She was just what my daughter was hoping for. Thanks Nicole!!
Emma V. from Prairie Village, KS
Nicole is very kind and knowledgeable. She presents the material in a way that she knows I will understand.
