Whether you want to learn
French for personal pleasure, for travel or business....or desire to

I
pride myself in making French "easy to learn!" Private or small
group instruction is available and is personalized and tailored to fit
your needs. If you are a student, I can take the "mystery" out of
studying grammar and help your with homework.

country! It would be a pleasure to share this excitement with you!

Here's what people have to say:
You are an incredible teacher and we extend to
you our gratitude and thanks for giving our son the confidence to openly
have a conversation in French (something he did not do until he received
lessons with you). Now, he speaks French freely in the home and is
improving each and every day! Mom and Dad

Madame Diane is
a fabulous teacher. My daughter (6 years old) and I go for
private classes with Diane. We learn a lot in a day (40minutes) in a
very enjoyable way. We are always greeted with a big smile and the
table is ready for an unique way of learning for that day. Diane
adjusted the format and duration of the class so that it is easy for a
six year old who is coming after a day of school. Following are some of
the comments my daughter made after recent classes "That was very
short!!" (time flies when you are having fun and my daughter believes
all time should be play time) and "I like French''.
Diane is a Francophile and who better to learn French from. Yes,
sometimes in class during winter we dream of being in the French
countryside!! As an adult I had no confidence that I can learn any new
languages. I have realized that with the playful way Diane teaches my
daughter (games, puzzles, acting), I have memorized a lot of French in
an year. At 6yrs old my daughter is learning to read, write and speak
French. I am sure my daughter and I will look back at the sweet
memories of going to French class and she as a 6yr old always getting
higher scores than Mamma (wink!!).
I am grateful that I met Diane. Former and continuing client
My experience with French tutor, Diane Sands, has been a wonderful
experience! Diane is knowledgeable, helpful and patient. She lets the
goals of her students guide the pace of study and seamlessly brings the
daunting experience of learning a foreign language as an adult student
to a manageable pace based on individual needs. I would recommend Diane
to anyone who wants to master French language and culture in an
enjoyable atmosphere. Former and continuing client
