"Mrs. Aurélie Auberval is truly an incredible French tutor. She is extremely punctual, caring, and engaging. She put my son in ease to listen and speak in French. I highly recommend this amazing lady as a French tutor."
"Mrs. Aurélie Auberval is an excellent French tutor. She introduced me to the French literature and gave me some interesting books to read. She was always encouraging and I enjoyed my lessons with her."
"I had the opportunity to practice and learn French with Lily. Not only was I able to practice conversationally, but she also helped me with my reading and writing. She was very thorough in hitting all the core foundational aspects of learning a language and an amazing support. Lily is wonderful, and always went above and beyond during our lessons. I am able to watch movies en français as a result! I highly recommend for any beginner, or if you have some proficiency in French and you are looking to improve or maintain, Lily is the best choice."

Beginners students are those who show the best progress in a few amount of time. Based on your age, your sessions are tailored for you to learn the basics of French. Your tutor follows a curricular and prioritize your learning sessions so you get introduced first to the basics of French in various topics and everyday life situations. When students start to feel comfortable in their learning, sessions always include grammar, tenses, and specific aspects of the language in the curricular.
For children who are not readers yet, learning French is based on games and child friendly educational material throughout the sessions. Lilie has a wide variety of materials to teach French to your child in a fun and playful manner. As they learn how to speak French, they also absorb tones of vocabulary, right enunciation, and develop their listening comprehension.
Learning apps can be an excellent additional tool to practice on your own after each class. However, there is no substitute for face-to-face learning. While apps can help to reinforce your vocabulary, the personalized class provided by a native speaker is invaluable, and better helps reinforce your learning. You not only get the right accent, but you can apply your learning to actual everyday life situation and experiences. Not to mention the ongoing feedbacks!
For young children, Lilie highly recommend face-to-face classes, in particular for children who are not able to read yet. For older children and adults, students can choose a mix of both although we highly recommend to include as many face-to-face sessions to your curricular as possible.
Each session follows a schedule:
From Lilie's experience, it depends on the student. A good reference guide is provided by the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR):
When applicable, students will be directed to a language test offered on online at no cost on a reference website.
If your child has specific needs, parents or guardian should discuss with the tutor prior to purchase a package. Lilie will do anything possible so your child can start their journey in French learning.
Pep French does not offer Cajun French tutoring. However, if your goal is to reconnect with Cajun French, learning standard French will be your first great step in this journey. You will develop a solid knowledge of the core language skills, including vocabulary, grammar, and conversational abilities. You will use it as a strong base that can then be applied to learning Cajun French or other regional dialects. Additionally, Standard French is likely to be more widely useful if you plan to use the language for travel, work, or other purposes outside of the Cajun region.
Lilie is also fluent in Canadian French. So students with French Canadian origins can enjoy additional complementary education on the specifics of the language.
Students have the option to pay by credit card, debit card, bank transfer, in cash, cheque, or Zelle.
