About Isaac
Hi, I’m Isaac!
I’m a Computer Science student at Toronto Metropolitan University, and I’m bilingual in English and French. I love helping students discover that French can be fun, not just a subject to survive.
I’ve been tutoring since 2022, and I spent a term supporting students in French at an elementary school in Toronto, working with small groups across different grade levels. I know how to adapt to different ages, learning styles and paces, and I’ve seen how quickly confidence grows when the pressure comes off.
I remember what it’s like to feel lost in a class, so my lessons are patient, encouraging and judgment-free. Mistakes are part of learning, and no question is too small.
Looking forward to meeting you!
Isaac

How I teach
We start with the student. In the first session I get to know the student: their interests, what they enjoy, and what feels hard about French. A comfortable student talks more, and talking is how languages are learned. I then build my examples around what they like, whether that’s games, sports, animals or music.
Understanding first, then the rules. I explain why French works the way it does (how sounds, spelling and sentences fit together) so reading and writing stop feeling like guesswork.
Guiding questions, not answers. I ask questions that lead the student to the answer themselves, which builds real confidence.
Learning to find answers. I teach simple habits for looking things up, such as using a dictionary and checking the text, so they become more independent.
A typical lesson (45 to 60 minutes)
10 min: Friendly check-in, plus a quick review
20 min: New concept through reading, speaking and examples
15 to 20 min: Guided practice (reading aloud, writing, conversation)
5 to 10 min: Recap and a small goal for the week
The first session is mostly about getting to know the student and finding their level.
What sets me apart
I’ve worked directly with students in a school setting, where the teacher noticed more engagement from the students I supported. I’m bilingual, so I can explain in English when something is confusing and then move back into French as the student gains confidence.
Who it’s for
Elementary students (reading, speaking, writing and homework support)
French immersion and core French students
Students who feel shy, behind, or anxious speaking French
Parents who want steady progress and clear updates after lessons
