General Program Information
Who is the program for?
The CPF Virtual Tutoring program was created for parents who made a commitment to have their children learn French. The program provides students from 5 to 14 years old with additional support for their French language learning journey.
How does it work?
- The French tutoring program runs for eight weeks.
- Participants will work one on one with a tutor on a weekly basis, with the possibility of group sessions (1 tutor and 2 students).
- Sessions are 1 hour long and will take place virtually via Skype.
- Strong internet connection, a computer, camera and microphone are required.
- Refunds will not be issued for failure to attend one or more tutoring sessions without notice.
- Refunds for legitimate reasons will be processed on a case-by-case basis.
- This program is open to CPF members across Canada. The service is offered at a $40.00 fee and and membership is required to participate in the program.
- Siblings should NOT be in the same room during the same session time. Parents/caregivers should be nearby to support the student if there are any issues or technical difficulties. Students should be in a quiet environment. Missed sessions will be made-up as a grouped session (your child and another child to work with one tutor).
- Students who miss 2 or more sessions without notice will be removed from the program, without refund.
- Students will have a different tutor each time, this allows students to hear different accents from all over the world and the country.
- Timeslot selection is final. All timeslots are in Eastern Standard Time as the program runs in this timezone.
What do students work on?
Tutors come to each lesson prepared with a variety of fun-filled activities that are both engaging and instructional on a specific, interesting topic! Students will work on activities related to reading, writing, speaking, and listening in French. If there is spare time within the one-hour session, students can ask for help on their French homework.
