Students Testimonials

"My daughter struggled with French in school and was really worried about her Junior Cert exams. After starting lessons with French Grinds, her confidence and understanding improved dramatically. The tailored approach, focusing on the exam requirements, really made a difference. She felt supported and prepared, and her grades improved significantly. I can’t recommend Loïse enough for anyone needing extra help with French. The progress has been remarkable!"
Ann
“I started taking private French lessons with French Grinds to help with my work as I often travel to French-speaking countries. I had struggled with traditional classes in the past, but the one-on-one sessions were a game-changer. Each lesson was tailored to my needs, and I quickly gained confidence in both speaking and comprehension. The flexibility to fit lessons around my busy schedule was a huge plus. Thanks to Loïse, I now feel much more at ease communicating in French, both professionally and socially.
