I took a few lessons before travelling to Paris. Besides improving my French, he also shared helpful advice thanks to his experience in a travel agency, which made planning my trip much easier.

I prepared for the DELF C1 exam with him and the lessons were very helpful. The classes helped me improve my confidence and structure my ideas better in French. Thanks to his support, I was able to pass the exam. I highly recommend him.

Found Matisse on iTalki and honestly, he’s been a total gem. I love that he’s not stuck in the past - he uses cool tech and apps during lessons which makes things way easier to wrap my head around. I travel a ton, so we clicked instantly. What’s really cool is that it’s not just him teaching me; he’s actually curious about the places I’ve visited and we just end up having these great deep dives into different cultures. Every lesson feels super personal and tailored to what I’m actually into, not some boring textbook stuff. If you want a tutor who’s actually a vibe, go with Matisse

Matisse is a fantastic teacher who really knows how to get you speaking. We met through iTalki.
In my case, I had a pretty rough time with previous tutors/teachers, but Matisse hit the mark perfectly. He’s very supportive and never makes you feel bad for a wrong word or a shaky sentence. I love how he keeps me engaged by asking thoughtful questions - I’m basically talking for the entire session! There’s always a sense of genuine curiosity from his side, which makes the lessons feel very natural. He’s definitely a tutor I’m happy to keep coming back to!!
