Why learn French with me, Madame Karine
I was born in France and moved to Canada at 6 years old. I got my Education degree at the University of Calgary. I have been teaching for over 20 years now.
My teaching journey has inspired me to create a program that empowers students to master the fundamental skills in French reading. The method I have used, both in the classroom and in my tutoring, has helped and continues to help many struggling readers. I would like to share my expertise with you and your child through my French reading online courses and classes. A strong reading foundation is the key to building success.
Reviews
What my students and parents have to say about my French reading classes.
“As a parent of two kids who Karine helped with their French reading and French grammar, on several occasions over the years, I whole-heartedly recommend Karine to other parents whose kids need that extra push. When our oldest, Eitan, was in grade 1 in the French Immersion program, he fell behind in French reading. Being a purely English-speaking household, we could not help our boy in a meaningful way; so, we were very fortunate to find Karine, who came very highly recommended. Karine quickly identified the gaps that she needed to focus on and worked with Eitan until he became comfortable and gained the confidence to continue developing his French reading skills on his own. When our daughter Ariel hit the same roadblock, we knew the person to turn to – Karine! Karine also helped Ariel with the grade 3 French math.
My kids are now in junior-high and are doing well in their French subjects. Having said that, our relationship with Karine continues: Ariel recently approached me and asked to reach out to Karine to help her with her French verb groups. It has been a month since the two of them have been working together, and Ariel’s progress is evident.
​
On a final note, in addition to being a wonderful teacher, Karine is a warm and friendly person who puts kids at ease, which helps their motivation and increases their willingness to attend the lessons and to put in the work. Thank you from all of us Karine!.”
