About CécileBB

Bonjour, I’m CécileBB 👋🏽 I’m a bilingual French teacher helping adults take their French from pants to fancy-pants. I’m half French, half English and was born in Canada before settling in Yorkshire as a child. I studied French and Psychology at university, trained as a secondary-school languages teacher in 1996. Since 2012, I have been teaching French to adults. After years of learning and teaching languages, I know just how frustrating learning French as an adult can be. In one ear and out the other! My lessons focus on practical, everyday conversational French and, most importantly, building your confidence to actually use it. I explain grammar clearly and use humour, daft memory hooks, amusing visuals, sound effects and the occasional grimace to make tricky French easier to remember. My lessons are informal and entertaining, but they’re also carefully structured and progressively challenging. The idea is for you to experience that wonderful moment when a French sentence suddenly pops out of your mouth and you think, “Where did that come from?” I run small-group and 1:1 lessons via Zoom, from beginner to B2 level. Whether you regularly travel to French-speaking countries, have made your home in one or are simply learning French for the challenge, I’ll help you improve your French and build the confidence to just have a go, step by step. Learn French with me, CécileBB, and take your French from bof to oh là là ! 🇫🇷 I’ll be there to teach you, support you, encourage you and cheer you on. Merci beaucoup !
