About this program

Immersion support from people who did Immersion.

French Immersion moves fast, and it rarely slows down to let a student catch up. A verb tense that never quite settled in Grade 5 turns into a writing problem in Grade 8 and an oral-exam problem in Grade 11. The content keeps arriving in French, so a language gap quietly becomes a marks gap in every subject taught in French.

Our Kitsilano French tutors work on the actual classroom material — the novel study, the exposé, the grammar unit due Friday — not a generic language course running alongside school. Several of our French tutors are Immersion graduates themselves, which means they have already made the mistakes your child is making.

We support the full range: students in Immersion who need to keep pace, Core French students building toward a Grade 11 or 12 credit, and confident speakers who need written accuracy for provincial assessments.

We tutor in person at 3317 West 4th Avenue, Vancouver, BC V6R 4R9 and online across BC, serving Kitsilano, Point Grey, Dunbar, Fairview, and West Point Grey.

Frequently asked

Questions parents ask.

Immersion students learn other subjects in French, so a language gap becomes a marks gap across the timetable. Core French students take French as a single subject. We support both, but the plans look quite different, which is why we assess first.
Yes, and this is the single most common Immersion request we get. Oral fluency and written accuracy are different skills. We focus on verb tense, agreement, and structure — the areas where confident speakers lose the most marks on written work.
Yes. Our French tutors are fluent, and several went through French Immersion in BC themselves, so they know the programme from the inside as well as the language.
Yes. Senior French assessments weight speaking heavily, and it is where otherwise strong students freeze. We build speaking practice into every session and rehearse the assessment format specifically.
New students start with a $34 plus GST Learning Plan Session — a 45-minute session where a senior Keats tutor works through real schoolwork with your child, pinpoints the gaps, and gives you a written learning plan, covering reading, writing and a short spoken component. We’ll walk you through package options after the Learning Plan Session.
