Yes! Students enrolled in our level 0 to 5 classes will receive and use a custom textbook that contains the entire course curriculum including homework. A physical copy of the textbook is included in any in-person group class registration, and a digital version of the course booklet is included in any online group class registration. Students enrolled in an online group class have the option to purchase a hard copy of the textbook for $25, if they wish.

Level 6 and 7 are conversation-based classes and do not use any textbook. In those classes, we will use various resources (articles from francophone newspapers and magazines, podcast episodes, video clips, etc…) to fuel our discussions.

Our classes are limited to 8 students to allow for enough individual attention and maximum speaking time to develop or polish your French skills in a supportive community setting.

If after your first lesson, you realize that the class level is not the right fit for you, just let us know and we’ll help you find a better class option. Please note that there are no refunds for group classes after you attend your first class, but we will do whatever we can to find another class for you.

While some of our teachers might not have been born in a French speaking country, all of our teachers are bilingual and fluent in both French and English. All of our instructors have also lived for an extended period of time in France and in other French-speaking countries.

Our teachers come from diverse backgrounds and while not all of them hold a French as a Foreign Language teaching certificate, all have years of expertise in teaching French all over the world, and have been trained to use our method.

Bonne question ! The answer varies greatly from student to student. Some may find it easier than others to learn French. It really depends on many factors such as your age, your first language, your environment, your motivation and of course the time you can dedicate to learning French. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself! Have fun with it, try to incorporate French in your daily life, and you’ll start seeing results!

Most of our events are open to people of all levels of French, but some might be open to beginner or advanced levels only. Make sure to always check the event description.

Yes, your teacher will usually assign a reasonable amount of homework to practice what you covered in class.

For group classes, we can let you attend a different class of the same level to make up for the session you missed, providing that we have a class of the same level, and that the class isn’t full.

You can also book a private make-up lesson with your teacher for $65/hour.

Oui ! Besides our in-person classes, we also offer online classes, which means that you can take a class with us from the comfort of your home, and basically from anywhere in the world. Our class times are in CST, so make sure to pay attention to the timezone.

In the event of low enrollment for a group class (3 people or less in a 10-person class), we might postpone the class to a later date, combine two groups, or shorten the duration of the class as we see fit. In this case, students will have the option to transfer their credit to a different class, or to get a refund if the new dates do not fit their schedule.

Private lesson packages are valid for 6 months from the date of purchase.

Oui bien sûr ! Select our semi-private lesson rate when booking a class for two people. Our semi-private lesson rate is 1.5 times the regular rate
