Group sessions
It’s by speaking that we learn!
Why group sessions?
The main goal of learning a language is always communication.
After leading several small-group immersion stays in France, I am convinced of the benefits of group conversation practice, and I wanted to recreate this powerful and enriching exercise in my online offer.
☝️Build confidence to speak up in a conversation.
✌️Give priority to fluency over adherence to grammar rules.
These group sessions are the perfect setting for you to assert yourself and enjoy the knowledge you’ve already acquired to engage in interesting conversations on a variety of topics.
Program
8 themes to enjoy the French language and culture!
1 week = 1 theme
After 8 weeks, we repeat the themes, but the topics change.

Resources
We'll use authentic resources to speak like French natives!
All the resources we will use as a basis of the conversation during our sessions are made for native speakers and reflect one aspect of the culture.
Podcasts, songs, cooking recipes, short videos & articles will be provided or freely available online.
Full movies and books will be purchased or rented by the participant if interested; otherwise, a short extract will be studied during the class through screen share.
