What happy students and parents say

I have had the privilege of working with Nathalie at an elite bilingual private school in Princeton. In this time, through observation as well as collaboration directly on numerous projects, Nathalie has proven herself day in & day out as an excellent educator. I have witnessed the time & energy she places into planning and executing lesson plans, her caring demeanor when dealing with students, and being a great team player. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Nathalie, who is a very creative thinker and worked very patiently with all of her students.

Nathalie has been my fantastic teacher for years. Right off the bat, she became a family friend. She genuinely cared about me, how I learned, and my family. I don’t know if there’s an eloquent way to say this, but she’s very observant about her students. She noticed what styles and techniques worked for me. She immediately implemented activities that better suited my style of learning. I learned and improved my French through games, quizzes, videos, conversation, and writing. I can honestly say I’ve never had a teacher like her. She has a colorful, vibrant personality that makes the lessons engaging. I want to continue my classes with her because I enjoy her as a person, and I have learned so much and come far with my French.

Our daughter's journey of becoming passionate with French started when she was young and budded soon after the pandemic's outbreak when she met Nathalie. At the end of every lesson, our daughter is always eager and excited to share her experience - how much fun she had and what she learned - without prompting. We knew right away that Nathalie was and continues to be the perfect fit for our child. Nathalie provides a very personalized approach to language education. As a result, our daughter looks forward to every session. The impact of her time with Nathalie is evidenced by the way she uses French in her everyday life. For the last two summers, our daughter has gone to a camp where the students are either Quebecois or the children of French expats in the USA. She has engaged with the counselors and her camper peers with great confidence and spontaneity. When we are with friends from France, she can converse at a level where she shares ideas, humor, and life experiences. It is great to see our daughter's work with Nathalie has created a real impact on her life. We highly recommend Nathalie and feel blessed that what started as a way to fill time during the pandemic turned into a real friendship for our entire family and a real mentor for our daughter to learn, love and use French.
