About Jonathan
I'm a native French speaker with 15 years of teaching experience, including a long run at the University of Georgia. So, I know how to make learning French engaging and successful, whether you're a complete beginner or looking to brush up your skills. I believe in active learning. Forget boring textbooks! We'll dive into interactive games, role-playing, and creative projects. I also bring real French culture into the classroom, using recent popular culture, because I believe you should be learning the language as it's actually spoken. During my time at UGA, students consistently gave me high marks. They loved my clear lessons, helpful feedback, and the fact that I was always there when they needed help. Many even said my classes were their favorite French courses ever. I know how to create a supportive and stress-free environment where you can truly thrive.

I believe learning French should be fun and engaging! My teaching method uses lots of talking, games, and creative activities like making videos or music. We might play bingo, battleship, watch French YouTube, read cool graphic novels, and even act out scenes. I'm a native French speaker, so I bring real, up-to-date French culture into our lessons, like popular shows and music. A typical lesson starts with fun games to get you speaking, then we work on reading and listening with real French materials, and finish with more creative stuff like role-playing or singing. I make sure it's relaxed and stress-free, but we'll still work towards your goals. What makes me different is my unique, playful approach. I can teach anyone, from kids in elementary school to adults, and I adapt my lessons to fit your level. My goal is to make you fall in love with French!

Jonathan is a fantastic tutor! His hands-on approach and cultural immersion make learning French engaging and effective. It helps you understand both the language and modern French culture. Highly recommend!
Dr. Baillehache was my French professor at UGA and he was an amazing professor! I enjoyed his teaching style, and he is enthusiastic about immersing yourself in the French language in order to learn. He is very enthusiastic and helpful. He won't just give you the answer if you mess up, but he will lead you to it and explain why so that you know better for next time. While he was my teacher, he used a combination of learning styles so that we could all benefit. We played games in French and this helped me a lot, as I have a kinesthetic style of learning. He took the extra time to cover things that seemed harder for students and didn't mind repeating himself when it was necessary for understanding! He has a creative approach to teaching and ensures students are on the same page before moving onto more complex topics.
Great professor! I felt like my ability to speak French improved immensely under his instruction compared to other professors. I also loved how entertaining and engaging he made his lessons. I took French rap with him at UGA and it was a lot of fun!
