Enjoy a combination of structured language lessons and conversational practice in everyday situations.
A full French immersion through a teacher homestay with a qualified teacher living in France means that whether your child is preparing for an exam or you personally are brushing up on your French language skills for a professional qualification you have access to a uniquely intensive path to progress. Your French teacher will assess your needs or those of your child and develop a personalised, one-to-one language course. So it’s not only a more targeted approach to learning but also a more economical one as there are no fees for a middleman.
And unlike a typical teacher agency, you choose the French teacher living in France, personally. Using Lingoo’s secure messaging system you can get to know your teacher first and then make all arrangements – including payments – directly with the teacher.
They will help you learn and practise French in everyday situations, in formal lessons or while indulging your hobbies. So it is always worthwhile choosing one with similar interests to your own. Some French teachers can also arrange to pick you (or your child) up at the airport or station and transport you there again when you return home.
Our French teacher profiles are diverse. Some are full-time homestay teachers while others are school teachers with availability only during school holidays. Others are part-time homestay teachers and will explain their availability on their profiles.
