EXCELLENT Based on 14 reviews Posted on Google AliasTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We can recommend Monsieur Tanguy without hesitation. Our son had private online French lessons with him for almost two months and made remarkable progress during that time—far more than through language school alone. Monsieur Tanguy is an outstanding teacher: highly professional, reliable, and an excellent educator. He adapted each lesson perfectly to our son's level, challenged him appropriately, and continuously encouraged him, which greatly improved his confidence and spoken French. Two guided walks through Strasbourg were an additional highlight. They combined language practice with cultural discovery and were a wonderful experience for our son. If you are looking for high-quality private French lessons—especially online—we wholeheartedly recommend Monsieur Tanguy. He is an exceptional teacher, both professionally and personally.Posted on Google Natalina HermanoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tanguy's French classes are highly recommendable. If one is looking for a safe space to practice, make mistakes and move forward with someone who's clearly passionate about languages and how to teach them, Voilà Français is the place to go.Posted on Google Réka KáraiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I joined Tanguy’s group classes and was very satisfied with both the teaching method and the overall atmosphere. The classes focused on developing speaking skills while also addressing some of the trickier aspects of French grammar.Posted on Google Andrew Bedford (Roo)Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an irrational fear of learning French. I finally joined Tanguy's classes and, although challenging, I wondered why I didn't start sooner. His flexible and easy going approach easily adapts to any side questions that arise during the class and opens up a confidence to try I hadn't had before. I would highly recommend his classes to anyone regardless of level. I knew some French and he very quickly found my level to maximise on what I knew and build foundations for improving. Thank you Tanguy!Posted on Google Liga LoszachTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

He is truly exceptional — patient, friendly, and incredibly skilled at adapting each lesson to our speed and level of knowledge. His teaching style is engaging and encouraging, making every class enjoyable and productive. Tanguy has a great personality, creates a comfortable learning environment, and genuinely cares about his students’ progress. If you’re looking to learn French with someone who is professional, supportive, and fun to work with, he’s absolutely the right choice!Posted on Google Mike MatheouTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been taking French lessons with Tanguy since January 2022 with the objective of improving my abilities to understand spoken native French and participate in conversations with native French speakers while I spend extensive periods of time in France. I have been delighted with both Tanguy's approach to the lessons, and the results which the lessons have enabled me to achieve. Tanguy has been excellent at finding interesting subjects for us to talk about each week, usually based around a French video or audio podcast. I feel that he has delivered a very personal service, tailoring the lessons to meet my objectives and to my skill level. My French friends have commented on a number of occasions how much my language skills have improved. Highly recommended!Posted on Google Bonsitu KitabaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a fantastic experience working and learning from Tanguy. I had some prior French knowledge but Tanguy’s one on one attention and techniques really helped me understand the concepts and be more confident in my learning.Posted on Google Kmeczó TiborTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tanguy is the best private tutor I have ever met. I started taking French lessons from him during Covid and we have been meeting weekly ever since. The lessons are absolutely relaxed, he helps you exactly in the way that best serves your development. He always arrives for lessons on time, he is always prepared, the topics are tailored to you. While learning, you are constantly learning about French culture, history, and public life. He is always tolerant, pays attention to every detail, and you constantly receive feedback and motivation from him. In the meantime, my children are also learning from him. I recommend him with all my heart, whatever your level.
