About

Over the course of the week, we will cover grammar, reading and writing, listening, speaking, and tips and tricks for success in YOUR French class. This bootcamp is meant for students who have a basic understanding of French or are going to take French 2/3 this year. If you're at a higher level, you are still welcome to join, as we will be covering foundational as well as advanced topics. Get ready for school with this fast-paced French Bootcamp!

Tutor Qualifications

I've been learning French for the past four years and will take AP this year. I’m a platinum and gold award winner on the National French Exam. I also recently achieved the Seal of Biliteracy on the STAMP test. As a polyglot, I have experience with language learning and teaching it to others, so I can't wait to conduct this bootcamp!

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Since this is a bootcamp, it will only run for five days, so please do not miss more than one session! If you cannot maintain this attendance, you will be withdrawn from the series. Please message the tutor in advance for any absences!
