ESL and FSL support
Outside Quebec, almost all French Immersion students have a mother tongue other than French, so many parents can't help with French homework. That's where a tutor helps most: your child's certified teacher works with them in French, explains grammar in plain terms and builds speaking confidence.
Certified teacherOnline, home or libraryStatistics Canada's 2021 Census found that almost all school-aged children in French Immersion outside Quebec do not have French as a mother tongue (Statistics Canada, 2021 Census).
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
In Ontario, core French starts by Grade 4; other provinces vary. Tutoring builds vocabulary, verbs and the confidence to speak up.
French Immersion
Most subjects are taught in French. Tutoring keeps reading, writing and grammar on track in every subject.
Immersion homework, made manageable
The teacher works through your child's Immersion or Extended French homework in French and explains it in English when needed, so you don't have to.

Most families notice it at homework time or when a report card comes home.
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.
Speaking French is one thing. Knowing how children learn it is another. Teachers are trained in pedagogy, the practice of teaching. They assess your child's French, adapt their approach and build on existing skills, while following your province's French program.
