About the Teacher

I’m Aurélie and I’m the founder, course creator and teacher at The Love of French. I’m French but spent 15 years in San Francisco teaching French.

I created The Love of French after returning to France with my French-American family. I believe it is more important than ever for people to stay open to the world around them, to be curious about other cultures, languages and customs, to have more empathy and critical thinking. Learning a new language is the first step in this direction.

And I would love to help you get started on this journey.

My goal, as a language teacher, is to empower students to become independent learners and feel confident communicating in French.

I focus on real spoken French while giving students a solid foundation to continue learning on their own.

Credentials & Testimonials

I have been teaching French to English speakers for more than 20 years: in Universities, City Colleges, Alliance Françaises, and as a private instructor. I hold a Master of Arts in Teaching French as a Foreign Language.Testimonials will be added once my courses are live but in the meantime feel free to check out my reviews from my University of  San Francisco students here.

How It Started

The Love of French started as an idea to help people learn French remotely when Covid hit.  

At the time, I believed it was more important than ever for people to stay open to the world around them.

I think this is as true today as it was then. We all need to be curious about other cultures, languages and customs, to have more empathy and critical thinking.  Learning a new language is the first step in this direction.

And I would love to help you get started on this journey!

I decided to keep this enterprise a family business for the moment, and deliver a very personal service to my students.
