I love to teach through conversation, stories and fun activities. Depending on what your desired level will be for the lesson, I use technology in my classroom to engage my students. I believe there is an important balance between practice and conversation that is necessary to communicate well. First, I would like to get to know your circumstance in order to tailor make the lessons to fit your needs. Secondly, I will develop a plan of appropriately leveled activities where I will push you to try things you hadn’t before and encourage you to make mistakes and learn from them. Mistakes are a part of the process, they are proof that you are putting in the effort and if you can learn from them, that will be when you will see the most growth in your abilities to communicate in French! You’re well on your way!!!

Monsieur Doucette taught me French for two years at my high school. He was fun, efficient, willing to help me further when I struggled in areas of the language, motivated, super super nice and easy to get along with. Monsieur Doucette makes it fun and easy to learn French.
Honestly the best French teacher I've ever had!M. Doucette was my French teacher for three years in a row and taught a great mix of the language and French culture that enriched my understanding and love of French. I still practice French using the techniques he taught me and I’m hoping to study abroad in France in college. He’s great at tailoring his teaching style to how his students best learn. His classes were both challenging and fun and I highly recommend him as a tutor!
Tim was my high school French teacher for 2 years and was amazing! He constantly pushed me to do my best, and at the end of the first year I had improved on my speaking, writing, and reading skills. He was always there for extra help when I needed it, and always kept it interesting! Learning French was easy and fun!
I had a wonderful experience with Mr. Doucette in my two years of being taught by him. I learned more French in those two years than I thought possible. I have retained that knowledge to this day. I would highly recommend him as a tutor!
Tim Doucette taught me in high school and also served as my advisor. He connects with students very well, allowing them to feel comfortable to ask questions and push themselves. He is a knowledgeable, friendly, patient teacher and a great guy!
