Who is this e-Course for?
Anyone who wants to learn French and actually be able to use it in real life, especially if you’ve tried to learn before and have some of the basics already.
The reason why most French students struggle with actually holding a conversation is because they never practice speaking with someone. I’ll show you how to find friends to practice French with and how to converse with them.
As long as you can dedicate a few hours a week to learning French and you’re ready to meet some new francophone friends, I can help you speak French like you’ve always wanted to.
Who is it NOT for?
Anyone who doesn’t want to meet new people. I don’t think you can’t really learn French all alone in your bedroom. Languages are tools for communication, so if you don’t want to practice with other people it’s going to be very difficult for you to learn French.
It’s ok if you feel nervous or you’re a bit shy (so was I when I first started!). I have a lot of techniques to help you get over your shyness and ease into it, I only ask that you be willing to get out of your comfort zone and try new things,
This course is also not for anyone who only wants to learn academic French. Our main focus is conversational French which is often very different from the French you’ve may have learned at school. A lot of what you learned in a textbook is correct, but it’s often way too formal or old fashioned sounding for everyday situations.
