Mar 19 2013 Hello everyone. My name is Joshua and I've been back to states after spending approx 4 years in Paris. I was working with IBM during that time. I have some great tools that I brought back from Paris, but ultimately, my goal is to teach you how to speak French as the Parisians do. We will cover of course key grammar points, but the idea is to talk as they talk. If you think this would interest you, please give me a call or shoot me an email. My rates are $25/hour. Talk soon.
