About me
Teacher
Tutor from France
My name is Gurvan, I am a friendly native French tutor for children and adults!
My speciality is teaching online French for kids beginners!
I live in Le Havre in France and I have been teaching online French since 2014.
I was an animator in France with children and this experience helps me a lot in my teaching because now, I use games to teach French.
I have traveled a lot: Ireland, England, United States, Bulgaria…
I was a French teacher at Samara University between 2014 and 2017 in Russia.
My specialty is the Russian language. I also speak English and a little Bulgarian.
I am a self-taught person, I like to learn constantly, I am very curious and I practice personal development regularly.
I am a very positive person and I help young people to have confidence in themselves.
By speaking to me, a French guy, I show them that French is easy and interesting and that they can speak authentic French right away!
They will have to be careful when they travel as they will be understood !

В данное время прохожу обучение.Meruert Ussen07/11/2023I highly recommend French Teachers' lessons! It was a great pleasure to start learning French language with teacher Gurvan! He is patient, explains things in an easy to understand manner. J'ai vraiment aimé les cours de français avec le professeur Gurvan. C'est le meilleur professeur! Шетел тілді меңгеру қаншалықты жеңіл бола алатынын Гурван сабақтарында түсінуге болады. Гурван өзі де жан-жақты болуға, жаңа шетел тілдерін үйренуге өте ынталы. Уроки преподавателя Гурвана проходили по интересной методике с погружением в общение на французском языке. При этом, нюансы по грамматике и лексике разъяснялись преподавателем сразу. Большой плюс был в том, что фразы и слова, которые сложно было понять на французском и английском языках, преподаватель Гурван объяснял и на русском языке, так как знает его в совершенстве. Желаю удачи Гурвану и его школе французского языка!Justin Durel24/10/2023J'ai le privilège de travailler avec Gurvan depuis plusieurs années, notamment dans l'édition de ses vidéos, ses cartes cadeaux (dont je fournis quelques photos) et de son livre exceptionnel. Ayant assisté à plusieurs de ses cours, je peux attester de son approche innovante, de son enthousiasme et de la qualité irréprochable de ses leçons, particulièrement adaptées aux enfants. Il a une singularité amusante : c'est le prof qui porte toujours un chapeau ! Je recommande vivement ses cours de français, que vous soyez russophone, anglophone ou bulgarophone (en attendant qu'il apprenne lui-même encore d'autres langues !)Elvira Elvira10/09/2023Нашему 9 летнему сыну нужно было за лето изучить французский язык с нуля, чтоб он мог осенью чувствовать себя достаточно свободно во французском колледже. Мы обратились к Гурвану. Занятия длились 3 месяца. В настоящее время начались уроки в школе и ребёнок может уверенно объясниться на французском и понимает очень многое из того, что говорят учителя и другие дети. Ему очень помогли занятия с Гурваном, благодаря которым он увлёкся языком и достиг хороших результатов за короткий период. Спасибо за интересные и весёлые уроки.Vanya Cot05/09/2023Синът ми учи френски с Гурван една година. Гурван съобразява уроците на децата с техните интереси и прави уроците забавни. Целта ми беше синът ми да се престраши да използва езика, да разбира хора, на които езикът им е роден, и да води елементарни разговори с тях. Благодарение на уроците, синът ми се отпусна, получи увереност и започна да използва френския.Анастасия Анастасия28/06/2023Мой сын, подросток, занимался с Гурваном почти два года. Сын стал свободно говорить по-французски, на любые темы, а не только школьные))) без ошибок. Занятия дали ему уверенность в разговоре и своих знаниях. Гурван - грамотный преподаватель, прекрасный человек и находит к ученикам индивидуальный подход!maria11/02/2023Много съм доволна от Гурван. Има добър подход към децата, прави ученето на френски интересно занимание.Afina Karasavova28/01/2023Мой ребёнок занимался с Гурваном французским в течении года, преподаватель использует нестандартные подходы к обучению, смог заинтересовать ребёнка языком, все занятия проходили с большим удовольствием! Спасибо за помощь в освоении французского!Александра Апасова08/11/2022Прекрасный опыт общения с носителем языка! Было безумно приятно и легко! С Гурваном можно вести диалог не стесняясь, не боясь ошибок. Если нужно, он всегда поможет и объяснит. Merci à vous!
