About Gift of the Gab French Language Services

As a second-generation teacher and translator, I bring a lifelong foundation in precise bilingual communication. My parents met at the House of Commons, where they served as translators and simultaneous interpreters for the Debates, providing me with early immersion in the standards of professional language use in Canada's public service. At age 11, I became the youngest candidate to win the local French language composition championship for the Outaouais across all high-school levels. My mother's origins in the South of France, with deep Occitan roots, have given me a nuanced understanding of France French, enriching the Langue d'Oïl standard with Langue d'Oc influences. Growing up in the French-Canadian context of the National Capital Region, combined with my experience as a former programmer at the Government of Canada and multiple diplomas in education-related fields, has equipped me with intimate knowledge of administrative and professional French terminology and its critical role across public service domains.

With over 10 years of experience teaching French and having worked with major language schools, I identified their limitations—particularly the application of child-focused pedagogy to adult learners. This insight led to the creation of an award-winning program grounded in andragogy, leveraging your existing English knowledge to deliver the most effective and efficient French training tailored for Government of Canada professionals.

About the Program

The program follows a clear, progressive path designed for adult learners using andragogy principles — respecting your experience and focusing on immediate professional relevance. Unlike traditional pedagogy suited to children, our method delivers instruction in English to leverage your existing linguistic knowledge, enabling quick, comfortable, and confident acquisition of French.

It begins with Things in Common, building on shared English-French elements (nouns, adjectives, verbs, adverbs) to establish authentic conversational foundations quickly and with certainty. Next, Verb Tenses (and Their Respective Uses) explores tenses in practical context, mastering their application for true conversational fluency in just 4–5 hours. The program then shifts to targeted SLE preparation, using authentic Government of Canada Écrit practice materials (as used in NCR schools) and focused Oral Niveau B training, while introducing Niveau C requirements through progression from concrete descriptions to abstract expression (opinions, advice, professional scenarios).

Stress-free training: Motivated learners always tend to succeed in this stress-free environment, where progress is optimized when calm and enjoyable. Gabriel teaching “I tend to get the best out of people when they are calm and enjoying themselves.” — Gabriel.

Total effort is typically under 35 hours, with lifetime access, exclusive apps, and nearly 100% success for BBB/C goals.
