Find your French tutor in Sunshine

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 private tutor accelerates the process by correcting your mistakes in real time and adapting lessons to your goals.

In Sunshine, expect to pay about $35/h for a French lesson.

This rate varies depending on several factors:

• Your current level (beginner, intermediate, advanced)
• The teacher's expertise and background
• The duration and frequency of lessons
• The teaching mode (in-person or video call)

Online lessons are often more affordable while remaining effective.

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 French tutor helps you identify exactly which 20% to focus on for your personal goals and current level.
