FRENCH DICTION:
✪✪✪✪✪ I highly recommend Lorraine. She assisted in the French pronunciation with Mark Vincent and Marina Prior for their hit album "Together" for Sony Records. She was a great communicator, and very effective in getting the right results. And her easy and enthusiastic demeanour proved to be very effective for Mark. Thank you Lorraine!

✪✪✪✪✪ Lorraine recently helped me to prepare the French pronunciation and diction for a choral work I wanted to teach my choir. As someone who has never studied French I find it very difficult to correctly follow phonetic guides in this language. Lorraine was patient and clear and persisted with each phrase until I could say it correctly. She also made a fantastic voice recording for me to distribute to my choir. I have friends who are native French speakers and help me out from time to time but as choral directors we know that words are treated differently in song and at times words need to be merged or the emphasis on particular syllables moved to fit with the music. For this reason it is ideal to have coaching from a vocalist and choral director who understands these challenges and gives correct advice. Her help has given me the confidence to stand in front of my choir fully prepared for the next rehearsal.

✪✪✪✪✪ I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciated your help with Tant Que Vivray this year! We qualified for our State Competition and received two perfect scores from the judges! They loved the French piece!!!!

FRENCH LESSONS:
✪✪✪✪✪ Great tutor!
Lorraine has been really a wonderful tutor who focuses and adapts to the changing needs of my son's French lesson requirements. My son is very happy with Lorraine and she motivates my son to want to do better in French. She is definitely a great asset and would recommend her 100%.

✪✪✪✪✪ Invaluable resource, a pleasure to work with!
Lorraine has been an invaluable resource in helping me to recapture my French. I learned to speak French as a child but had lost it as I aged and was not using it often. Lorraine organized a lesson plan focused on my specific needs and timing. The lessons are done using Skype which works wonderfully. On a recent trip to France I was able to apply my new learnings and spoke with a lot more confidence. I would highly recommend Lorraine to students of all ages. She is a pleasure to work with.

✪✪✪✪✪ French conversation is geared towards your particular needs
Lessons with Lorraine are like meeting a friend for coffee. She makes the conversation geared to your particular needs and does so with such ease and humor that sometimes you forget it's a lesson! I highly recommend her for those who are interested in taking their French conversational skills to the next level.

✪✪✪✪✪ Learn from the best and choose Lorraine!!
Lorraine is the absolute BEST French tutor that there could ever be. She is a complete and perfect NATIVE SPEAKER which means that if you choose her, you will be starting out at the top. But that’s not all- Not only is she fully able to speak and interact with the language, but she can also write it and understand it phonetically. After only being tutored by Lorraine for one month, I was able to reach advanced proficiency in speaking according to the Oral Proficiency Interview, a college interview for becoming a French teacher. This tutor is the ultimate choice for you because she also will answer ALL of your questions and assist you completely. Moreover, Lorraine is fun and upbeat and she will help you to reach your full potential!!!
