Types of French Lessons

• Private tuition - face to face

Private tuition is a good option if you are a HSC student and have chosen French as one of your final subjects, you'll receive face to face personalised lessons, detailed feedback and additional learning resources. Prepare for both your written and oral exams with the support of an experienced tutor by your side.

It's also a great option if you're new to the language and are at a beginner level, private face to face tuition will allow you to master the basics in a short amount of time. Working with a tutor will allow you to learn how to improve your speaking, listening and reading comprehension skills.

Face to face tuition can often be on the higher end of the cost scale, so make sure to consider your budget and see if there are more affordable and financially accessible options. 

• Group Conversation Classes - online and face to face

If you are someone looking to learn French so you can meet new people and engage with new communities and cultures, then group conversation classes are a fabulous way to make new friends and practise your speaking all at once! There is less pressure to speak perfectly when you're in a room surrounded by other beginners and enthusiastic learners.

Group Conversation Classes can often be more affordable and cost less than private tuition as there are more people to cover the cost of the lesson. However you will get less one on one time and feedback from your tutor, but will have other students to study with. 

• Private Lessons - online

Private online lessons are practically identical to private lessons and group lessons if you choose, but they are delivered online. Your tutor may use a digital learning video platform such as Zoom, Skype, or Webex. This is a suitable option for someone who prefers to learn at home, or if you find a tutor who is outside of where you are willing to travel.

Online classes can sometimes be more affordable as you and your tutor won't have to commute. Check out which tutors in Wollongong and the Sydney area are offering to deliver their sessions online today with Superprof.

How can I Study in Between Lessons?

There are few ways that you can support your French learning in between your lessons with your tutor, practising a new language regularly is one of the best ways to make progress in short amount of time. Seeking out online French learning tools and media is a fun way to expand your French vocabulary and develop a repertoire of topics you can discuss in French. 

In order to improve your listening and reading comprehension skills in French it could be a good idea to engage with French print and digital media. Listening to the French news on SBS for example, is a great way to experience listening to native speakers and practise your comprehension.
