What will you learn with us?
If you have never spoken a word of French, you will start with a Survival course where you’ll be exposed to the language from the very first lesson. Your teacher will give you some tips and tricks to develop your fluency while you learn basic vocabulary and phrases, like greetings (“Bonjour”, “bonne nuit”), thanking others (Merci beaucoup) or requests like “can you help me?” (Pourriez-vous m’aider?). Plus, our native-speaking instructors will also introduce you to the culture of French-speaking peoples to enrich your language journey even more.
More advanced learners will study a tailor-made programme. For instance, our tutors will select the resources and materials to use based on your preferences. If you love cinema, you can work with classic or contemporary movies. If songs and karaoke are your things, our instructors will plan lessons around your favourite music genres, so you always learn in a fun way that holds your interest!

Her videos always start with phrases like ‘Bonjour, j’ai tenté un intro un peu original’, so they are an excellent way to start learning conversational phrases and greetings in French. One great advantage you should consider is that her videos come with English subtitles, so you can understand everything she’s saying, even if you are just a beginner. The videos are quite short (3-5 minutes), so you’ll surely be able to fit them into your schedule. Click here to subscribe.french Youtube Channels
Studio Bagel
As the name suggests, this YouTube channel is not run by just one person but a group of YouTubers that speak about topics as varied as aliens, being in a long-distance relationship and movie trailers. Different from other artists on the platform, there’s nobody talking directly to the camera in this case. Instead, you’ll find short movies and documentaries, presented at a slow pace and using a clear style, that will suit intermediate level learners just fine. Most of the videos do not have any subtitles, so they are more suitable for advanced levels looking to fine-tune their listening comprehension skills. Click here to subscribe.Je ne suis pas jolie

CNews
If you’re a beginner who wants to improve their French listening skills, lexicon and comprehension of different accents, then watching the news is a great idea.

A good option is CNews, a channel launched in 1999 and uses very simple vocabulary, slow cadence and clear enunciation when delivering the news in French. Also, it’s known for being one of the fastest broadcasters to report the news as events happen, so you’ll always be up-to-date! Get started with news in French here!french News

Children love music. This is a great advantage when learning a foreign language, as songs do wonders when it comes to improving their listening and speaking skills. Furthermore, your kids can retain information and new vocabulary much more easily when singing something that appeals to them. Frère Jacques is a great song for children to learn new verbs and the word order in questions. It’s about a friar who mustn’t fall asleep before saying his prayers, so his friends ask him dormez-vous? (are your sleeping?), comptez-vous? (are you counting?) and chantez-vous? (are you singing?) to help him stay awake. Click here to know more about this rhyme.ENGAGING. CONVENIENT. PERSONALISED.
