Sound familiar?
You know some French.
Let’s help you use it.
You recognise the words, but putting a sentence together in the moment is another story.
A weekly class gives you time to practise out loud, ask questions and try again, with people who understand.
For the moments you came to France for
Take part in the life around you.
The grapes you want to buy. The appointment you need to make. The neighbour you would like to know. Bring those moments to class before they happen in real life.
What you’ll practise
From knowing words to using them.
Build your own sentences, understand spoken French and rehearse the exchanges you want to have in real life.
Introductions, questions and invitations. Put words together, even when your grammar feels rusty.
Linked sounds, liaisons, prices in euros. Train your ear and learn how to ask for repetition.
Markets, appointments, eating out and making plans. Practise the whole exchange, with time to try again.
Themes follow the group’s questions; grammar comes in when it helps you speak.
The people beside you
Good company makes French easier to try.
Join from the U.S., Canada or wherever home is now. Practise the everyday conversations you will soon have in France.
Bring the moments you face each week. Practise the words together, then try them in real life.
One circle of like-minded people. Speak, laugh and stay connected on WhatsApp.
“When I first arrived in Paris, I felt quite lost and isolated. Olivia quickly helped me gain confidence, not only with French but also in everyday situations. The group classes have also been a great way to meet people and create connections.”Lola · group learner
Your teacher
Meet your online teacher.
Parisian and international, Olivia brings a background in translation and theatre to your online classes. Patient, attentive and playful, she gives you time to try, make mistakes and laugh along the way.
The invitation
Come as you are.
Keep going together.
Join a familiar online group for practical speaking and listening. The themes can follow your questions; grammar comes in where it helps.
Start together in November. After the Christmas break, return to the same friendly faces in January. Your WhatsApp group stays open between classes.
Questions before you join?
Can I join before I move to France?
Yes. You can practise everyday situations before they happen in person. The class is online, so you can join from abroad.
I learned French at school ages ago and feel I’ve forgotten it all. Is this for me?
Yes, if you feel you are still near the beginning. The group welcomes complete beginners, people who have studied a little on their own, rusty returners, and those who know some French but still hesitate to speak. You do not need to start from zero or arrive confident. Your teacher adapts the practice to the people in the room, and the everyday themes let you practise at your own starting point.
What if I’m not ready to speak in a group?
You do not need to be quick or fluent. Your teacher gives everyone room to try and ask for repetition. You can join in at your own pace.

A few quick answers
Is this your kind of group?
Can my partner and I join together?
Of course. You are both welcome, but each person needs their own place, signup and payment for the group. If you would prefer to learn together in a private lesson, ask us about French classes for couples.
Why is each class 75 minutes?
A private lesson can be shorter. In a small group, 75 minutes gives everyone time to speak, listen and try again without rushing. There is room to relax, get to know one another and enjoy the conversation.
Is this an A2 exam course?
No. This group focuses on everyday speaking and listening. If you have a formal A2 deadline, contact Déborah to discuss the right route.
What happens over Christmas?
The last December class is 15 December. The same group returns on 5 January. The WhatsApp group remains available for classmates to stay in touch during the break.
How does the two-month commitment work?
You commit to November and December: €160 at enrolment for November and €160 due 1 December (€320 total for seven live classes). From 1 January, €160 renews monthly unless you cancel before the next charge. The cancellation route will be shown before you pay.
Clear from the start
A few practical terms.
If you miss all or part of a class
There is no separate make-up class, credit or refund for a learner absence. You will receive the private recording link so you can catch up.
Class recordings
Every class is recorded for this group only. A private link is shared with enrolled learners and stays available for 30 days. Recordings are for personal catch-up, not sharing or publication. Your voice, name or image may appear; you may keep your camera off.
If we cancel a class or the group
We will offer a replacement class. If that is not possible, we will refund the relevant part of the fee. If the group does not start, all payments are refunded.
Your payment
Two-month starting commitment: €160 at enrolment for November, then €160 on 1 December (€320 total). From 1 January, €160 renews monthly until you cancel before the next charge. Scheduled breaks are shown in the calendar above.
To cancel after the initial November–December commitment, email Déborah before your next charge. You have 14 days from enrolment to withdraw: email the same address with your name and enrolment date. Your statutory rights are unaffected.
