Yes. Most French Immersion families in Canada don't speak French at home, and that's exactly where a tutor helps most. Your child's certified teacher works with them in French, explains grammar in plain terms, and builds the speaking confidence that homework alone can't.
French help looks different depending on your child's program, so your child's teacher starts by finding out which one they're in and where they feel stuck.
Older students can also prepare for the DELF, the internationally recognized French diploma that many Canadian school boards offer in high school. A certified teacher knows what each level asks for and how to practise the speaking and writing parts.
Core French
A daily French class, often from Grade 4. Tutoring builds vocabulary, verbs and the confidence to speak up.
French Immersion

The instructions are in French, the answers are in French, and you're left guessing at the kitchen table.
Your child can read the words out loud but can't tell you what the story was about.
They follow along in class, then freeze when it's their turn to answer in French.
Wanting to drop French Immersion is often a fixable gap in reading or grammar, not a lack of ability.
Your child's teacher follows your province's French program and your child's pace. Here's what French tutoring typically covers at each stage.

On our side, we cover the costs of maintaining the platform, marketing, and ensuring families have access to a trusted network of vetted educators. This model allows teachers to maintain independence while benefiting from the exposure and support that Connect Education provides.
