"What a great time I am having learning French. This is the best way to do it, on my own time and at my own pace!" Recia B. - Hotel Reception

"I wanted to share how it's been for my first few lessons with Cedric. When I had my 30-minute trial lesson and assessment, I felt very good that Cedric understood what I was hoping to gain from future lessons. Since then, he has been everything I hoped for and more. My hope was to have someone who could help me "dust off" my French and help with some of the finer rules that I have forgotten, vocabulary, and so on. I do not need to study for any exam. This is purely for my own personal growth. Cedric has done a fantastic job with maintaining conversations with me, being patient when I try to remember an old word and encouraging me at the right times with the correct word or phrase. I had originally asked for him to be honest with correctly when I got a phrase wrong or got the wrong gender for a word, and so on, but not to stop me mid-sentence because that would be unnerving. Cedric is the model for how all tutors should be. Here's an example of how he handled that request. I was sharing a story of when I lived in France and introduced myself to a group. I used a literal translation of "i introduced myself." He let me finish the story and then politely said, "Just for your own knowledge, everyone would understand that phrase. To sound more native, we would say "I presented myself" instead of "I introduced myself." He has been like that all along with me so far. He doesn't "correct me", he will just subtly step in when needed to say, "To sound more native, here's what I suggest." He creates such a relaxed environment where I feel like I can grow and advance. My goal was to be able to have little lists of questions that arise that we can discuss, to have good conversation, to have my vocabulary stretched, and to THEN worry about a lesson if we have time. I have no need for a structured lesson. Again, I'm not studying for anything. This is a treat for myself. So, he provides a lesson. If we get to it, that's great. If not, it's because he's been free with letting me go through my list of questions and to discuss what was on my mind. Like, for this week, I saw a documentary about the big fire in the Notre Dame Cathedral. The interviews were all in French, and I had learned a few new words. He verified that I had understood them correctly. We talked about accents and various regions and went through my long list of questions. I left the lesson beyond satisfied. He is exactly what I had wished for. I have already been telling people about Live Lingua and trying to get them to sign up!" Michael M. - Unknown

"Thank you very much for the great service provided by your company, and the fabulous instruction I had with Cйline. I was taking lessons to brush up on my French in preparation for an exam. I had the exam this past Friday, and I got the score that I needed. So a great success! I would highly recommend Cйline, she was great at focusing the lessons on what I needed to succeed. And, quite enjoyable to work with! I would definitely use your company again if I needed language training in French or any other language in the future, and happy to recommend you to anyone else in search of language instruction."
