How to use the Platform

What are the formats of the Lessons?

Lessons consist of 1-on-1 Tutoring Session on Skype. One session lasts 1 hour.

What do I need to teach French online?

You will need a very reliable Internet connection, a computer headset, a webcam and Skype. Skype is the only communication tool permitted by the platform.

You may download Skype here

How do Students book the Lessons?

Students can book the Tutors of their choice, and Ofrench is only an intermediary between the Students and Tutors.

Students are able to book Lessons, by visiting a Tutor page. They have the possibility to buy as many Lessons as they need.

Should I stay connected on the platform?

When you are connected to the platform, a green indicator is visible on your Profile.

Tutors who are online receive on average 5X more Lesson requests, compared to Tutors who are offline.

How do I contact the Student and give the Lesson?

Once the Lesson has been booked and paid by the Student, you will instantly receive an email with all the details about the Lesson (= Student’s Name, Skype account, Date & Time of the Lesson according to your timezone).

The email will also ask you to confirm your presence for the Lesson. Each Lesson must be confirmed, so if a Student books 5 Lessons with you, you will need to confirm the 5 lessons individually.

Once the Lesson is confirmed, you will just have to call the Student on Skype at the scheduled time, in order to start your session.


If you do not confirm the Lesson at least 1 hour before the beginning of the lesson, the lesson will be automatically CANCELLED.


How do I handle Private Messages from Students?

Students often send Private Messages to Tutors, in order to discover more about the teaching method or to indicate their current level in French.

In most cases, Private Message is for the Student the first step before booking a Lesson with you.

So in order to maximize your chances of getting a new Student, we strongly encourage you to reply to messages as soon as possible, in the best manner!

How Ofrench works?

Ofrench provides Tutors with tools to help them grow their teaching potential:

– A constant flow of new students wishing to consult Tutor profiles and book lessons – Customer support offered by a team of dedicated French Staff

– A secure payment system – Specialized content on Grammar, Vocabulary and Methods to help you teach more effectively

Ofrench takes a fee equivalent to 50% commission on your first and second lesson with each new student. For all subsequent lessons, the commission varies between 30% and 15%, depending on the number of hours of lessons given on Ofrench. In short, the more you teach on Ofrench, the less commission you pay.
