Make French a Joyful, Living Language for Your Child or Teen

Imagine your child or teenager discovering Paris as a place where French truly comes alive: choosing a croissant at a bustling bakery in Montmartre, confidently asking a local for directions near the Seine, or sharing laughs during a museum visit at the Louvre. At Bespoke French Lessons, we don’t just teach French — we bring it to life. Through personalized, one-on-one lessons in Paris or online, we help children aged 6 to 17 connect with the language in a way that feels natural, joyful, and unforgettable.

Our approach is simple: French should never feel like a chore. We believe that language is best learned through real moments, curiosity, and connection. Every lesson is crafted to fit your child’s personality, interests, and goals. Whether your child is just starting out, preparing for DELF Junior, or already fluent and eager to go further, we adapt each session to their rhythm and needs.

 

Why Parents Trust Our Private French Lessons in Paris

Language is more than grammar rules — it’s about trust, curiosity, and real-world connection. That’s why our French lessons are designed as moments of discovery, not homework. Lessons unfold in the city’s parks, cafés, or museums, transforming each outing into a playful and meaningful encounter with French.

Even the most hesitant learners begin to enjoy speaking because we meet them where they are — listening to what excites them and showing how to express that in French.

The result? Not just better grades — but a sense of belonging, confidence in real-world situations, and unforgettable memories.

For families visiting Paris, newly arrived, or joining us from abroad, we make French feel like a part of their world, not just a subject at school.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

​​Alex, 15, arrived in Paris with little confidence in French. During a lesson with his tutor Brice at a café near the Jardin du Luxembourg, they talked football. Soon, a few nearby Parisians joined the conversation. Something clicked. By the end of the week, Alex was ordering pastries for his family and even offering to translate. He left with more than words — he left with pride.

Another student, Josephine, age 10, arrived shy and reluctant to speak French. Her lessons became calm, fun moments in the park. With time and encouragement, she started chatting with waiters and asking questions in shops.

 

One more example: Eloise, age 12, spent a week exploring Paris with her tutor Chloé — from the Marais to the Buttes-Chaumont and Luxembourg Gardens, through the Musée des Arts Forains and her favorite figurine shops. They practiced vocabulary and phrases along the way — describing buildings, asking for items, sharing impressions. By the end of her trip, she led her parents through the same streets, proudly naming places and interacting in French as if it were second nature. Chloé became her online French tutor afterward, and within a year, Eloise had grown nearly bilingual.

How Kids Learn French in Paris (Ages 6–11)

For younger learners, we blend storytelling, movement, drawing, and role-play. Whether naming animals during a stroll in Parc Monceau, describing feelings using colors and expressions, or embarking on a treasure hunt in the Jardin d’Acclimatation, kids absorb French naturally and joyfully. The focus is on building comfort, trust, and curiosity — not perfection.

How Teens Learn French in Paris (Ages 12–17)

Teens need relevance and authenticity. We explore topics like music, travel, identity, and social media. A walk through a street art neighborhood can spark a conversation about freedom of expression; a visit to a photography exhibit might inspire a personal story. Sessions often happen in real Parisian settings: chatting at a café, debating a film after a cinema visit, or discussing current events during a walk along the Seine. Our aim is always to help teens feel confident, inspired, and capable of expressing themselves in French, in ways that matter to them.

 

Online French Lessons with a Parisian Spark

For families abroad, our online French lessons carry the same warmth and energy as in-person sessions. The spirit of Paris travels through the screen. Sessions are dynamic, interactive, and thoughtfully crafted for each learner. Tutors use games, stories, music, and meaningful conversation — not just drills or screen sharing. Follow-up notes and light assignments keep progress flowing between lessons.

"Our teen dreaded French at school. His tutor brought it to life through real conversation. He even wanted to visit again to keep practicing." — Charles, father of Alex (15)
