OUR TEACHING PHILOSOPHY
I've helped thousands of French language lovers just like you...
Hi, I'm Devy, the Founder and Head Teacher of French Speak. I'm passionate about teaching the French language, and over the past 25+ years I've had the privilege of helping thousands of learners across the world.
While French Speak is headquartered in Australia, my students are all over the world: the USA, Canada, UK, New Zealand, Switzerland, and even The Congo!
So many of my students first make contact after lessons with other language schools. They are frustrated by their lack of progress and confidence when it comes to conversing!
My teaching philosophy is captured in French Speak's name: I want to get you French Speaking! I'm obsessed with finding fun and brain-friendly ways to teach French to adults. So we keep it simple and focused on the language elements that actually make you conversational.
I'm really proud of the impact my unique teaching style has on my students' learning, and know it can help you too!
