Find your French tutor in Ivanhoe

Learning French on your own is entirely possible with the right approach.

• 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.
• Immersive listening: watch French content with subtitles and listen to native speakers as often as possible.
• 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.

The average cost of French lessons in Ivanhoe is around $70/h.

Several factors influence the price:

• Your current level (beginner, intermediate, advanced)
• The teacher's expertise and background
• The duration and frequency of lessons
• The lesson format (online, at home, at the tutor's)

Comparing several profiles helps you find the best value.

The 80/20 rule, also known as the Pareto principle, says that 80% of your results come from just 20% of your effort.

• 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.
• Fixed expressions: learning language chunks — like "qu'est-ce que," "il faut" and "c'est" — builds fluency far faster than isolated words.
• 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.
