FRENCH CLASSES IN LANGUEDOC
ABOUT ME
Originally from Béziers, France, I spent most of my adult life in the United States. During my years in California, I first worked on projects for internet companies such as Google and Yahoo, before going into business for myself, teaching French to teenagers and adults. In 2014, I founded Bay Area French Tutor , a French tutoring business located in the San Francisco Bay Area.
I hold a Ph.D. in Egyptology from Yale University, and a Master’s degree in French Literature from West Chester University.
I am perfectly bilingual and at home in both cultures. Now that I am back in my native Languedoc, I continue to teach French to English speakers, online and in person.
I also offer language immersion stays to students who wish to improve or perfect their knowledge of the French language.
The French immersion stays that I offer take place at La Noria, the property where I live near Béziers. For more details on my immersion program, click on French Immersion. If you would like to know more about La Noria, visit Your Stay at La Noria.

Testimonials
Here are the testimonials of two of my more long-time students. Both now speak fluent French!
Pascale is an excellent teacher. In the time she’s been working with me, I’ve gone from two or three words of poorly articulated French (and zero ability), to being able to read, write, speak and comprehend at a level I previously thought impossible. She is experienced, organized, intelligent, encouraging, detail-oriented and highly efficient. She makes French fun (and non-threatening for us with no prior experience). Highly recommended !

My focus is French Conversation, and I have been complimented by my native French speaking friends on how much I have improved. To me, I have improved grace à Pascale. She has hauled me through 3 traumatic years of having to get up and speak French in front of native French speakers every month. She is supportive, kind, knows her grammar up and down, and finally, she goes the extra mile for her students.
