Find your French tutor in Glenelg

Self-studying French works well when you build strong habits from the very beginning.

• Grammar basics: learn how verbs work, how nouns get their gender and how everyday sentences are built.
• Vocabulary building: learn the 500 most common French words first — they cover the majority of everyday conversations.
• Audio input: regular exposure to spoken French sharpens your pronunciation and builds natural comprehension.
• Speaking aloud: practise pronunciation daily — repeat phrases, record yourself and work on correcting your accent.

A personal French tutor gives you structured feedback and conversation practice that no app can replace.

A private French lesson in Glenelg costs approximately $25/h.

This rate varies depending on several factors:

• Your current level (beginner, intermediate, advanced)
• The instructor's credentials and track record
• The duration and frequency of lessons
• The teaching mode (in-person or video call)

Most teachers offer a free trial lesson so you can test their approach.

In language learning, the Pareto principle tells you to prioritise the 20% of French that covers 80% of everyday communication.

• Essential words: mastering high-frequency everyday vocabulary gives you the strongest possible foundation for rapid communication.
• Key tenses: present, passé composé and simple future cover the vast majority of French conversations — master those before anything else.
• High-use phrases: memorising frequent expressions boosts your confidence and immediately makes you sound more natural.
• Smart revision: spend the bulk of your study time on the words and rules you keep forgetting, not the ones you already know.

A private French teacher tailors every lesson to the words, tenses and structures most relevant to you.
