Private French Lessons with Roger

No teacher means no one corrects you.

Apps teach you to tap tiles. YouTube teaches you to watch. Neither will hear your pronunciation, answer your weird grammar question at midnight, or tell you why you keep getting “du” and “de la” wrong. Roger will. He made the same mistakes when he moved to France in 2012. That is exactly why his explanations work for English speakers.

Roger is one person. Not a platform. Not a rotation.

He wrote every guide on this site. He learned French as an adult, moved to France in 2012, and has now spent 13 years living and working entirely in French. He failed B1 twice before he figured out the logic. That failure is the reason his teaching works.

He holds a Linguistics degree from the University of London in Paris and a French with Marketing degree from Northumbria University. He speaks English, French and German fluently. He has been teaching English speakers since 2015.

Roger remembers what tripped you up last week. He picks up where you left off. No wasted time re-explaining your goals to a different face every session.

Not worth €9? Money back. No form. No questions.

Roger has taught French since 2015. He does not take students he cannot help. If the 25-minute trial was not worth it, he refunds you within 14 days. Zero risk for you. The only risk is waiting another week and practising your mistakes alone.

Adieu to apps. Bonjour to Maîtrise.

Three things no algorithm can give you.

Apps teach recognition.

You need production. Nobody has a conversation by tapping tiles. Roger makes you speak from minute one. That is where the Savoir-faire begins.

Roger explains the logic.

He did not grow up bilingual. He figured out French grammar as an English-speaking adult. He knows where you will get stuck because he got stuck there first.

One teacher. Every week.

Not a marketplace. Not a rotation. Roger remembers last Tuesday. Every lesson builds on the one before. That is how you acquire L’Art de Vivre.

Someday is code for never.

The €9 trial is 25 minutes. Roger checks your level, answers your questions, tells you what he recommends. No pressure. No pitch.
