Why learn with me

Real French, taught with care.

Not textbook French recited by rote — the living language, from someone who grew up in it and knows how to pass it on. Here's what that means for you.

Native & real

The living language

I grew up speaking French in Switzerland — so you learn real pronunciation, real expressions, and how French actually sounds, not just what's in the book.

All ages & levels

Kids to adults

From a child's first words to an adult picking it back up, complete beginner to nearly fluent — every lesson meets you exactly where you are.

Built around you

Your goals, your pace

Conversation, school and university coursework, or exam prep (AP, placement) — relaxed but structured, and shaped around what you actually need.

French Tutoring

Real French, from someone who lives it.

I grew up speaking French in Switzerland, and I earned my school's English poetry prize as a native French speaker — so I know both the language and how to teach it across cultures. I tutor conversational French, help with school and university coursework, and prepare students for exams.

Lessons are relaxed but structured, tailored to your goals, and available in person around Boulder–Denver or online by video anywhere.

Cami, native French tutor in the Boulder–Denver area

About me

Hi, I'm Cami.

Most people here call me Cami — it's easier to say, and I like it. I grew up in Switzerland speaking French, then moved to Colorado and fell in love with English along the way — enough to win my school's English poetry prize as a non-native speaker. This fall I'm starting at CU Boulder, studying Communication with minors in Journalism and French.

Teaching French is what I love most — sharing a language I grew up in, and watching it click for someone else. Having learned English myself, I know what the hard parts feel like from the inside. Whatever your goal, you'll get someone reliable, warm, and easy to reach. I'm also Red Cross certified in first aid and CPR, in Switzerland and here in the US.

Questions & answers.

How do French lessons work? +

We start with a quick chat about your goals and level, then I build lessons around them — conversation, grammar, coursework, or exam prep. Lessons run in person around Boulder–Denver or online by video. I teach all ages, from young children to adults.

What are your rates, and how do I pay? +

French tutoring is $30–50/hour depending on level and format; babysitting is $20–30/hour; pet care is $20–35 per walk or visit. Payment is easy via Venmo, Zelle, or cash. Ask about package rates for regular lessons or weekly dog walks.

Can you help with homework in other subjects? +

Yes — alongside French, I can help with Spanish and general schoolwork during babysitting. If you'd like, I can weave a little French or Spanish into the kids' time in a fun, low-pressure way.

Are you insured for pet care? +

Yes — Peaks & Paws carries pet-care liability coverage. Current rabies vaccination is required, and we care for one household's dogs at a time, never a mixed pack. We'll meet your dog first at a free intro.

How does a first lesson work, and where do we meet? +

We start with a short call or message about your goals. First in-person lessons happen in a public place — Norlin Library on the CU campus, Boulder Public Library, or a busy café — or online by video. After that I can also come to your home. For students under 18, a parent or guardian stays in the home during the lesson, and I keep a parent on every text and email thread. It keeps things clear and comfortable for everyone.

How far do you travel? +

I work across the Boulder–Denver corridor — Broomfield, Boulder, Louisville, Lafayette, Superior, Westminster, and nearby. French tutoring is also available online anywhere. If you're a little outside these areas, just ask.
