Highly experienced native French tutor French teacher at London - Cecile

Cécile tutored me for A-level French. She explained everything really well and helped me gain more confidence with my speaking. I highly recommend her, she's a great tutor! :)

I used Cecile in the lead up to my A- Levels. By focusing with her solely on grammar I was able to target my weak spot and significantly improve it. She was on hand with good help and provided useful worksheets and exercises for me to carry out. She was on time and reliable.

Cecile was my tutor for a two week business French course, which was made up of oral and written exercises. I found her to be excellent in all aspects of her teaching and I would highly recommend her in this regard.

I can very strongly recommend Cecile Raguin as a tutor of French, for individual and small group teaching. She did several hours of French teaching for the French Department of Maynooth University Ireland during last academic year while I was head of department. She is highly qualified as a teacher of French as a foreign language; she has a pleasant manner with students and colleagues; she is very up to date with the latest methods and technological tools.

I attended for two years the lectures held by Cecile. I was a beginner in learning French and I really appreciated the very professional method adopted by the teacher in accomplishing her role.

I met Cècile in 2002: I was attending French classes at the Centre Culturel of Milan (Italy) and she was my French teacher. With some other students we also decided to have private lessons with her in order to improve our French knowledge and we manged to do that for three years (unfortunately I had to stop beacause I moved to another city). She is definitely a patient, enthusiastic, engaging and commited tutor; she has a very serious and precise teaching method but at the same time she manges to make lessons entertaining and easy to follow. Studying with her was a real pleasure.

Cecile has been my teacher of French for around two years and she has been very dedicated and effective in sharing her passion for the French language and her deep knowledge.

I had the opportunity to learn some french with Mrs. Raguin in 2013. She was very patient, has good teaching skills and managed to make me enjoy learning a new language.

A few years ago I was working for a big Italian Publisher - Milan, Italy, and I had to learn French very quickly. I had to take lessons at lunch time in order to fit my learning into very busy, I wolud say hectic days. It was hard for me. I felt I had no time for me at all. Cecile was, to me, not only an envolving and motivating teacher, but also an inspiring person, able to communicate more than words, always showing up with a positive attitude and with a smile that would break any learning filter and that would make unforgettable my lunch-time lessons.

I had Cécile as French language teacher for two courses at the Centre Culturel Français in Milan, Italy.

The course was in the evening after work and I had no real pressure to learn the language (I was studying French just because I liked it). These are the circumstances in which one would get to the course already too tired to feel like learning something, soon get bored, and just give up after a few classes.

With Cécile nothing like that happened. She has been able to communicate her passion for the language and we ended up learning French while having fun and looking forward for the next class. And, believe me, having fun while you're learning French grammar is not to be given for granted.

Cécile has just been the best language teacher I have ever had, and she is a reliable and trustworthy person.

Cécile is both an excellent teacher and tutor. She listened to what I wanted to learn and created a vision for how I could meet my goals. She then provided the structure needed to make progress and the opportunities to challenge me. I would recommend her to anyone wanting to learn and enjoy French.

I am extremely lucky to have found Cecile as my French tutor. It is many years since I used the language yet I am surprised how quickly Cecile assessed my ability and pitched my tuition at just the right level.
It is fair to say that I will be staying under Cecile's tutorship for quite some time to come; at least the next 2 to 3 years as I feel she can guide and coach me towards an excellent command of the language due to her thorough and comprehensive tuition.
