French Reading Program for beginners & struggling learners

Is your child at a French immersion or Francophone school? Are they learning to read or struggling with French reading? Are you unable to help because you do not speak French? Is private tutoring too expensive? If so, THIS is the PERFECT program for you! I am a French teacher with over 25 years experience. I created this French reading program for parents that can't help their child with French reading and can't afford to pay a private tutor. My COMPLETE, Step-by- Step, 27 lessons VIDEO COURSE covers: -All the French blended sounds and how to put them together to build a SOLID FOUNDATION -Sight words to build fluency and confidence -Mini lessons within the lessons to build on pronunciation, comprehension and understanding ****Included is a full workbook, and access to me anytime via email for any questions/concerns you may have. This course is made for beginners and struggling readers because it has a lot of repetition and visual cues to help them retain the language and sounds. I also teach PRIVATE CLASSES (reading, writing, grammar, comprehension, speaking and FSL) or can offer a mix of tutoring support while doing the video lesson course.

I am happy to meet to discuss your child's personal learning needs to best see how I can help them :) Below are some reviews from parents that are using or have used the course: I would highly recommend the Reading program of French Reading Essentials. The videos were very engaging, I noticed the girls were able to follow the words and read after Mme Karine. It helped their understanding of the sounds faster and I am glad the girls looked forward to watching the videos. The activities also gave them something to work with, which is great for their learning. It really helped their reading and learning of all the French sounds that they were lacking in school. Thank you so much!! Warm regards, Toyin L. Oladele (Calgary, AB.) So far, the video course has been so good for Angie’s learning! :) Angie has been working on the lessons for about three weeks now. She enjoys the videos a lot and follows along the materials pretty well. But sometimes she doesn't get things right away so it is great that she can watch again and again. There are lots of things I really like about your course. I like the way you teach by going through the sounds combined with each alphabet and repeat the sounds that were taught in previous lessons. Highlights and drawing makes the class more interesting. The dictee is effective in making her apply the sounds she learnt. Her phonics is weak and I feel she is benefiting a lot from your classes. She is gradually getting better everyday. :) Your pronunciation is very clear so it makes it easier to understand. Initially, I had to watch the videos with her. Now, she brings up the video and goes through it herself. I can tell she likes it a lot because she is very engaged. Thank you so much! I really recommend this for parents that cannot help their child to learn to read in French. It helps me and my daughter so much!! -Carmen Wong (Calgary, AB.) My daughter was new to French and I was seeing she had problems with learning the French vowel sounds and pronunciation. Madame Karine’s Video course helped us a lot with this. My daughter was very happy to do the course because it was easy to follow and she could do all the activities on her own. It became something she wanted to do and would ask me about it. This made me so happy that she was taking responsibility for her learning. She has grown in her reading confidence and speaking in French. I highly recommend this program!!! Aisha Kotok (San Francisco, CA.) My 6 year son is from an English speaking family and we live in Zambia in Southern Africa We choose to send him to a French school at 3 years old Zambia is not a French speaking country and the only place my son gets submerged in the language is at school during the school day With CoVid he was out of school for a very long period and lost much of his fluency of a language he was starting to grasp By the time he turned 6 and started first grade we found that many of the foundations of the sounds to assist him with reading were missing I was totally besides myself and had no idea on how to support him My sister came to my aide and sent me a link to French reading essentials We immediately reached out to Karine and set up an appoint to discuss tuition for Christopher on line . We decided to purchase Karine course but went a step further to have one on one zoom lessons for an hour every week . These lessons in addition to the course have been the foundation of rebuilding the gaps that were missing to help our son improve his reading skills We are currently half way through the course and when I look back from where we started and where we are today I am truly grateful for the help we have received to build up our sons reading in French Karine is able to keep him engaged and focused for a whole hour on line at the end of his day as with the time differ her mornings are our evenings . She is a natural with kids and has mastered how to get the most out of them via on line learning I have had many experiences with on line learning over CoVid and I can say to engage young kids is not easy for that length of time Be rest assured that the course with Karine support has been the turning point for the better in our child’s learning. Her teaching methods are fantastic and will definitely yield results for any child who needs help to improve Wendy Findlay Tiemann
