“When I retired, I decided to take educational courses. I always wanted to increase my knowledge of French. I enrolled in a course in “Recreational French” for Adults, with Veronique Triaire. Veronique is a very personable teacher and has a sense of humor which makes the lessons enjoyable and easier to understand. Veronique is patient and eager to help. I will be taking further lessons with Veronique as I want to speak French fluently.”

“Veronique made French lessons fun and helped me plan my itinerary in Paris. She is a friendly instructor and a great resource to have when planning a special trip to France. I was better equipped to learn and understand the French language making my trip more enjoyable.”

I first started learning with Veronique with the sole purpose of being accepted into the IB program at Bayview Secondary School but the significant amount of progress I have made throughout the 6 months have benefited me in more ways that I had imagined possible. Her clear explanations and wide variety of helpful worksheets helped me to improve quickly which eventually lead to my acceptance in the IB program. Without Veronique’s help, I could not dream of such an accomplishment.

Véronique is an amazing French tutor. I have been using her assistance for over 3 years and have gained a new level of knowledge when using French. I just finished grade 10 French at Stephen Lewis Secondary School with 89% which is a significant improvement from my passed years. Véronique provided me with practice and review to help me grasp the concepts I had trouble understanding better. Likewise, she explained grammatical concepts and writing techniques to help me improve my level . Today, my younger sister and I, both use Véronique’s help and hope to continue with her service for the years to come.

We have known Véronique for almost four years. And this means a lot in the business. In grade one, my daughter had problems with reading and expressing herself in writing. Véronique helped to identify problems that my daughter had, and solved them in a professional manner with a personal approach. We are very pleased with the results. Being in grade 4 now, my daughter is among the kids in class who can successfully do grammar exercises with no mistakes. Her reading skills (comprehension) also significantly improved thanks to the homework and explanations that Veronique provided. We would definitely recommend Mme. Veronique as a very good, professional teacher how cares about her students success.

Dear Véronique,

I just wanted to let you know that I received my results from the French exams, and I got a 6 (90-95%). I would like to thank you for all your efforts in making my French much stronger. It was a pleasure working with you.

Thank you again,

Veronique is an amazing tutor, without her help, I truly have no idea how I would have done so well in my French exams. Whatever misunderstandings I had from school, Veronique was there to guide me and teach me. She clarified any mistakes I made and I knew she was always there to help me reach my full potential. She enhanced my reading, writing and oral skills and gave me a great deal of confidence when communicating in french. Her encouragement was a driving force for me to continue practicing my French to this day. Thank you Veronique so much for helping me pass my IB French exams with flying colours. I have no idea what I would have done without you!

Raya has been Véronique ‘s student for around 2 years and had difficulty in reading and writing. She improved significantly her skills and marks in these two areas and her math level and marks raised too. Since she started private tutoring with Véronique, Raya gained so much confidence to participate in class activities. I also found that some difficulties in Raya’s math which came from reading and writing’s skills.

Raya had a private teacher before but the amount of work she has done (an hour a week) with Véronique is not comparable with other teachers. Véronique established priorities to work on with Raya durint the assessment session and she designed a curriculum specifically adapted to Raya’s needs and learning style. This sets Veronique apart from other tutoring organizations such as Kumon or Oxford. Right now, Raya’s teacher is so happy about her level and participation.

I have been with my tutor, Véronique Triaire since grade seven. I am now in grade nine, and I have had a dramatic increase in my French marks. My average for French now is 88%. She has helped me so much these past two years. Tests, homework, projects etc… She offers great practice sheets that can help me increase my French marks. In school, I do grade ten French and Veronique always gives me great practice and helpful notes so I can study more efficiently. She is definitely an excellent tutor!
