About Me

Bonjour and welcome 👋

Have you ever wondered where you can really learn to speak French, not just memorize vocabulary?

I’m Anissa, a native French teacher with over 10 years of experience helping teenagers and adults speak French with confidence, authenticity, and ease.

I hold a Master’s degree in Education and a certified diploma in Teaching French as a Foreign Language (FLE). Over the years, I’ve taught students from all over the world, including professionals, entrepreneurs, creatives, and motivated learners at all levels.

I believe that tools and apps can support learning, but real progress comes from human interaction, personalized feedback, and real conversation. My lessons are designed to help you actually use French in real-life situations.

🎯 How my lessons work ?

Each lesson is fully adapted to your level, goals, and interests.
We focus on communication, understanding, and confidence.

During our classes, you will receive clear explanations, immediate corrections, and practical feedback to help you progress faster and feel more comfortable speaking French.

I can help you if you want to:
- Speak French more fluently and naturally
- Improve pronunciation and confidence
- Prepare for an exam, interview, or professional presentation
- Learn French for work, travel, or personal pleasure

I also support students following international programs such as AP French, IB Diploma (ab initio & B), and A-Level. I help them strengthen their language skills, prepare for oral and written assessments, and gain confidence for exams.

In 2017, I created French Start to offer a fresh and modern approach to language learning, combining real-life communication, cultural insight, and human connection. This philosophy is at the heart of all my lessons.

If you are looking for a supportive, personalized, and human approach to learning French, I would be happy to guide you.

Book your first lesson and let’s start your French journey together.

À bientôt,
Anissa

Lessons are designed for teenagers (14+) and adults.

My trial lessons

During this 30-minute trial, we’ll get to know each other and talk about your goals and expectations. Through natural conversation and a few short exercises, I’ll assess your level (listening, reading, grammar, and speaking). Within 48 hours after the lesson, you’ll receive a personalized learning plan tailored to your needs and objectives.
