NaperFrench French Language School uses a unique, proven, and customized curriculum that can be tailored for all levels, interests, and goals, from beginners to advanced. The curriculum is customized for individual needs and goals, including professional, travel, migration, or personal development goals, and is available for teenagers or adults. Classes can be completely adaptable to platforms like Skype or Zoom while keeping the same immersion as conventional classes, and students can start at any time and move at their own pace. The program offers customized 1 on 1 French classes, immersion in the language, and an engaging curriculum, and it has served students of all ages, families traveling to France for business or pleasure, executives and business travelers, and leisure travelers.

The program is led by Anne Cottez (also referred to as Anne Cottez-Jones), a native French teacher who was born and raised in Reims, France and settled in the United States almost three decades ago. She has over 19 years of tutoring experience, has taught in language schools, and created a full-fledged business dedicated to teaching the French language to children, teens, students, and adults. Her mission statement explains that every person has a unique motivation for learning a new language and that her goal is to make students achieve theirs, offering a space to be expressive and free while learning and aiming for students to express themselves in French the same way they communicate in English or any other language they know. Anne Cottez has taught French to American and French families in the suburbs of Chicago and in Naperville, and offers follow-up and practice of the French language to expatriate families.
Testimonials describe experiences at NaperFrench French Language School, including a past student who studied with Anne for about a year and a half and used what was learned as a healthcare worker with native French-speaking patients, and another student who has been learning French with Anne for eight years starting at age ten and reports being able to converse with native French speakers during a trip to Paris. Other testimonials mention Anne’s patience with an adult learner over 60, support for a college student whose grade improved from a D to a B+, and comments that she is proficient in teaching, understands expectations at various academic levels, is patient and engaging, and develops strong rapport with students.
