Learning a language is much more than acquiring words and rules — it’s a human experience, enriching and sometimes even transformative. Every student has their own journey, their challenges, and their successes. Here are some testimonials from those who have trusted me to support them in their French learning adventure.

I have been taking lessons with Mme Bernardini for a considerable amount of time and have been able to really improve my conversation skills significantly.
Mme Bernardini always is well prepared and sometimes sends me short texts to read in order to discuss them in class. I am a happy customer.

I have known Professor Joo since 2019, at a time when my French skills had become quite rusty, and I found myself working as a hospital physician in northern France.
I must say that, thanks to her, I was able to pick up a language I hadn’t practiced in a long time and find my path in a particularly challenging work environment. She also helped me discover how much I enjoy the French language, which is why I continue to study it online with her support.

I have been taking lessons with Mme Bernardini for three years in a professional context, as I work for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Her lessons, structured around a written assignment followed by an oral discussion, are both demanding and enriching.
Her meticulous corrections — focusing on grammar, style, and pronunciation — have allowed me to significantly and sustainably improve my French.
Mme Bernardini is able to adapt to all levels and needs, whether for everyday or institutional use. I highly recommend her lessons to anyone looking to make structured, in-depth, and personalized progress.
