A French tutor in Montreux, two minutes from the station
The subject that weighs on all the others.
French is not one subject among others: it is the tool of all the others. Understanding an instruction, structuring an answer, writing without losing marks: everything goes through it. At our Montreux centre we work on the four pillars together, comprehension, spelling, grammar and expression, because none of them progresses durably without the others.

The work is done togetherTwo minutes from Montreux stationWhy French decides so much
What we observe among Vaud students, from primary school to gymnase.
It is everywhere
A misread instruction in maths, a poorly structured answer in history, a badly written report: marks lost “in French” are lost in every subject. Strengthening it strengthens the whole report card.
It is at the heart of Vaud exams
From the ECR to the Year 11 exams and gymnase admission, text comprehension and writing weigh heavily. These exercises are prepared with method, not the night before.
Writing is built
Spelling and composition do not progress by miracle but by regular, corrected practice: write, be corrected, understand the correction, rewrite. That is exactly what the structure of a lesson allows, and what home rarely does.
Results we measure
95%
of our students followed across the year passed their school year in 2025-2026.
Behind that number, a method: initial assessment, tested and supervised teachers, a report after every session, continuous adjustment of the programme.
The centre
Your SOS centre in Montreux
Quiet rooms for one-to-one and semi-private lessons, and a supervised study room staffed by several teachers. Lessons follow the Vaud curriculum, from primary school to secondary II.
Our third centre, opened for the eastern Riviera: two minutes from Montreux station, easy to reach by train and bus, so students can come on their own after school.

Discover the Montreux centre →Also at home and online
Our teachers travel to homes (Montreux, Clarens, Territet, Veytaux, Villeneuve and the heights above town) and also teach online. The hourly price is the same as at the centre; only travel costs are added at home.
The method
Four steps, no improvisation
The free educational assessment
At the centre, at home or online: it establishes your child’s real level, identifies the origin of the difficulties and leads to a clear recommendation. It takes two minutes to request, with no commitment.
A tested teacher, chosen for your child
Every teacher passed a teaching test before their first lesson: mastering the subject is not enough, you must know how to explain it. They are chosen according to the student’s profile, and their work is followed by teaching supervisors.
Followed-up sessions, a report every time
In French, every session weaves comprehension, language and expression together: read and understand, correct spelling and grammar on the student’s own texts, then write and rewrite, up to the demands of the ECR, Year 11 exams and gymnase. After each session you receive a written report: what was worked on, what is understood, what remains fragile.
A programme adjusted continuously
Teaching supervisors regularly review sessions, reports and progression. If the pace or the teacher does not fit, we adjust: replacement is simple and quick.
