Benefits of learning with a private tutor

A French teacher will guide you as you try to learn French. The first benefit is defining and clarifying your goals. Goals are very important when we learn something as it is what keep us motivated. The second benefit is consistency: learning with a teacher and having weekly sessions will keep you focused on your work and your progress will be more consistent. A third benefit might be tackling the different areas of the language. Learning a language consists primarily in being immersed in it, and to do so we have to listen to it, read it, write it and speak it. Learning with a teacher will tackle all of these areas.

Finally, your level is important and a teacher will tailor his or her lessons to your level. They will give you references to movies, books, TV shows, etc that fit your level of the language so you can have a good time while you learn.

Learning with a teacher and having weekly lessons is a great set-up to learn a language. It is a great opportunity to get out of your comfort zone and begin exploring a new skill that will serve you for life.

Benefits of learning to read French

Learning French opens the door to a world of content. In philosophy you could read writers and scholars such as René Descartes, one of the first modern-age philosophers, or Post-structuralists such as Michel Foucault, or existentialists like Jean-Paul Sartre or Simone de Beauvoir; reading their works in the original language as invaluable. The works of writers such as Albert Camus, Alexander Dumas, Marcel Proust or Honoré de Balzac will also be available to you - reading the literature of Albert Camus for example is an immense joy, since it is simple to read yet the stories and its dramatic events are quite impactful.

You will have access to dramatists such as Molière or Victor Hugo, whose work is ingrained in the annals of history. All of these writers and their works have been translated into many languages and probably you could find their translations into English, but there is a certain joy and realisation that comes with reading authors in their original language, a sense that you are not missing anything and that it is quite an achievement.

Learning French can be quite a challenge, especially when it comes to syntax - the order and the structure of sentences. Learning to read French and spending time with that activity will give you a better understanding of the way sentences are structured in French, it will be easier to assimilate the inner workings of the language itself and finally, it will be a significant tool when it comes the time of expressing yourself.

In order to navigate these oceans of books and essays of major thinkers, it would be wise to have someone to guide us.

This is why having a teacher that will help us find the right book for us, tailored to our level, is fundamental in our process of learning.
