French teacher in a Montreal school for adults, and tutoring government employees for a federal test.

Elie is a wonderful tutor who genuinely cares about his students’ progress. From the start, he quickly identified the gaps in my understanding of French and provided clear, concise guidance to help me master each concept. His explanations are easy to follow, and he always offers practical learning tips that make a real difference.

Elie has also been instrumental in keeping me on track as I work through more advanced material. Thanks to his support and structured approach, I’ve been able to meet the language requirements needed for a job promotion. I’m truly grateful for his dedication, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking to build their confidence and skills in French.

Thank you, Elie, for helping me reach my French language goals.

I’ve had a great experience learning French with Elias. He’s an excellent teacher who has made it easy for me to understand the language. He is also very friendly and patient, always explaining things clearly. I’d recommend him to anyone looking to improve their French.

Elie has studied translation and in his tutoring classes you can tell that he can pick up the nuances in languages. I have had tutoring classes with Elie and it was amazing to see how Elie can break down boring grammar rules to 3-5 words that "stick" and make it easy to apply! He is able to come up with exercises when you need them and appears to be a "walking" dictionary and grammar book. I needed a tutor to refresh my memory regarding the French language and he did an excellent job! Elie walked me through the labyrinth in a short period of time and providing me with a useful road map of grammar rules. I am going to miss the Friday French language sessions with you, Elie!

I have been working with Elie for the past several months, and my French has improved dramatically as a result. He is not only an exceptional teacher who tailors each lesson to my level and goals but also a genuinely nice person who makes learning enjoyable. I highly recommend working with Elie!

Elie is an excellent Arabic teacher! His curriculum is very well organized and provides an intuitive way to learn a foreign language. He moves at the student's pace. He's very patient and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend him.

Excelllent teacher. He personalizes the classes according according to his students needs and goals, so the sessions are truly effective and relevant .

Elie has been an exceptional teacher since I began working with him to improve my French language skills 8 months ago. He creates a positive environment for learning, patient in his approach, knowing when to prompt additional thinking or let me think though the issue. He has a deep understanding of French and can easily convey this to learners. Each lesson is enjoyable and I come away from each lesson knowing more and excited for our next chat.

I highly recommend Elie for anyone wishing to develop their french skills.

Elie is a strategic French tutor. He tailors each lesson to my specific needs and skill level, making the learning process both effective and enjoyable. He explains complex grammar rules in a way that is easy to understand. Furthermore, for a beginner in the French language, Elie stands out as a patient tutor who provides ample time for students to reflect, greatly enhancing the efficiency of the learning experience.

Elie is a fantastic French tutor, who works hard to ensure success for his students. He is able to pick up on language issues and changes lessons plans to accommodate. Elie enunciates well which makes learning the language easier for non-French speakers. He is passionate about language, and creates a very engaging and stress free environment for learning. I would not hesitate to recommend him for French language needs.

Elie is fantastic. He always meets you where you're at, and seamlessly adapts his teaching style to the way you learn best. If you struggle to use formal grammar rules, for example, he'll find a creative way to make it make sense to you by reciting how it will make sense in English. If you enjoy and are more engaged by having conversations rather than following lessons, he'll do that and try to teach you a new lesson too. I strongly recommend Elie. He's also both super reliable and flexible.

Elie is an outstanding teacher. He is patient, adaptable, and provides constant encouragement. For the first time, I feel as though I am actually learning and understanding French. I can't recommend Elie more!

I am very happy with his lesson plans that are catered specifically for my needs.

Elie, is the best French teacher I have ever had. Learning a language for me is no easy task, but Elie is patient and an amazing explainer with many years of experience who has provided me with many tips and tricks to master the language. I highly recommend!

Elie has been teaching me French for over a year and a half now. He is a remarkable teacher! He is always engaged, tailors your lessons to your current skill level, as well as challenging you and helping you to reach the next level. Elie encourages conversation and takes the time to explain concepts that you may be having difficulty with. As a government worker who has been trying to learn French for several years now, I can honestly say that Elie is the best teacher I have had yet. My recent progress has been great and it's all thanks to Elie.

Elie is an excellent teacher. He knows his stuff, he challenged me to work hard and encouraged me to keep progressing throughout my studies. I was very happy with the level of french language proficiency I achieved while working with him. Highly recommended.

It is splendidly easy to leave a positive comment for Elie. He is a communicative, patient, knowledgeable and encouraging teacher. Elie easily breaks down concepts into interesting sound bites and you will feel both motivated and at ease while learning.

I have had numerous French teachers over years, and Elie is BY FAR the very best that I've had. He is engaging, has complete command over the subtleties of French grammar, and pivots easily in response to questions from this very curious student.

He tailors the content to the needs of each student, spending as much time as is needed to ensure you understand the topic well before moving on, while not spending any longer than is needed. Without exaggeration, my French has progressed so much faster with him than with all of my previous tutors combined. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Look no further; go with Elie. The only thing you'll regret is not having found him sooner.

Elie is a terrific tutor and was very patient with me when he tutored me in French. Would highly recommend his services for students who are looking to learn French.

Elie is a very encouraging and patient French language tutor - he was better than any French teacher I’ve ever had!

He takes the time to understand your strengths and weaknesses to build your skills and confidence. He encourages you to learn the language rather than to complete a requirement.

I had a very rewarding learning experience with Elie and highly recommend him to anyone who may be feeling intimidated and is looking to learn French as a second language!

Elie is a very professional and punctual tutor. Elie structured lessons to meet my needs as a beginner in French and provided helpful resources and practice materials.

Very thorough and meticulously prepares his material. His vast knowledge of English (vocabulary and grammar) helped me a lot when I was a beginner as he would compare how we say things in English vs. how it should be said in French. Very patient and funny as well.

Elie has helped me raised my level of French, starting from a lot of fundamentals. After about half a year of taking lessons my comprehension in listening and reading have improved.

Elie is a wonderful teacher. He is patient, prepared, and helped me enormously with my French.

I had studied French before, but Elie explains things much better than any teacher who taught me before. There are plenty of things that I struggled with before, but I feel more comfortable using now thanks to his explanations and examples. I expanded my vocabulary, improved my pronunciation, and even my poor spelling.

I've taken lessons with him for over a year. He's always prepared, and mixes grammar with textbook and real-life material, to then apply the new grammar points and vocabulary into our conversations. I gained confidence in my speaking and writing abilities. Highly recommended!

I have been learning Lebanese Arabic with Elie for 2 years at a rate of 3 hours per week. Elie adapts his lessons to the needs of his students and thanks to his method I was able to progress quickly. I highly recommend Elie for anyone wishing to learn French, English or Arabic !

I worked on my French with Elie for just under a year. I can say that my conversational and reading ability has significantly improved with his help. He is very knowledgeable, friendly, and is not afraid to correct you when you make mistakes - exactly what you need from a tutor. As a full-time student who works part-time, I found him very flexible with scheduling our sessions which was something very important for me. I would recommend Ellie to anyone who is looking for a tutor!

Elie is a very good teacher. He is pedagogical and his way of teaching allows you to gain confidence and progress quickly. His lessons are very well structured between practice and learning and the feeling of improving after each lesson is rewarding. I highly recommend him!

Elie is a great teacher!! I learned a lot in a short period of time. He really adapts his courses for your needs and is very meticulous. I would highly recommend him.

Hi my name is Cuthbert and from the first day I met Elie he was honest me. I was at the YMCA, where I was studying Arabic for 3 hours per day, one day a week. Elie had said that 3 hours per day would be too much, one and half would be better, 2 days per week, and so for almost 2 years he has been my teacher, a wonderful and great teacher, who has lots and lots of patience. I would not hesitate to recommend any friend of mine to Elie. because of his 2 great qualities, patience and honesty.

As an absolute beginner in Modern Standard Arabic, I benefited from Elie’s tutorship for one year. Our weekly in-person sessions were interrupted by the pandemic, but he proved equally prepared and effective in our online frequentation. I feel we covered a lot of ground; each new session introduced new concepts while consolidating previous learning. I appreciated that he kept me focused on what I needed to know at any particular time along my learning arc, and not concerning myself overly with details that would eventually be encountered at an intermediate level.

I heartily recommend Elie as an Arabic tutor.
