I am so grateful that I have been able to have Marion as my French tutor for the past two years. She has been so helpful in not only walking through specific lessons, but opening my eyes to French culture and music. As a result of having Marion as my tutor, I am more excited for French class and my speaking abilities have surpassed what I thought to be possible.”

I have 2 daughters and Marion has been their French tutor for over a year. She is a very gifted teacher who knows how to work with them based on their individual needs. I appreciate her professionalism and patience. In their time spent together my daughters have grown tremendously as French speakers, readers, and writers. Marion makes learning the language interesting and fun. Her warm personality, positive attitude, and engaging teaching style creates a pleasant atmosphere where students are comfortable asking questions and moving at their own pace. I highly recommend Marion to anyone interested in learning the French language.”

I was lucky to have Marion as a French professor at UCSB. As a teacher, she is patient, clear, and always willing to answer questions. As a person she‘s fun, outgoing and very approchable. I remember I would come see her during office hours and she was always so happy to help students learn the material. Also, she really has a passion for sharing the language with others, which made the class even more enjoyable. I would highly recommend.”

“Mme Marion, as we fondly call her in our home, was our son’s 1st grade teacher at a local French school. She only spent a year with our kiddo, but she left a forever imprint on his heart. He still has a photo on his dresser of her with him and his buddy from the holiday concert. She is a wonderful French teacher and anyone wanting to learn French would be lucky to work with her!”

“Marion is such a sweet soul and perfect for children of ALL ages. My son was taught by Marion for about a year and he still raves about her ‘til this day. He excelled in French and still uses the practices she prescribed to help him thrive with his second language. I highly recommend Marion and I’m happy to have her back for my child.”

“I highly recommend Marion for French lessons. She is a French native speaker and a dedicated and encouraging teacher. I have been impressed by how she has engaged each of my kids based on their interests and learning styles to make sure they are motivated to learn. She is also just a great person and I enjoy my interactions with her!”
