Speak, connect and live French — live from Paris. The most advanced conversational level: tell real stories, hold an opinion, and keep up with the easy, witty flow of Parisian life.
This is spoken French at its most alive: telling stories, holding your own in a debate, catching the humour. No grammar — just the confidence to truly live the language.
No grammar drills. You learn by listening and speaking in real situations — French goes in through your ears and out through your mouth.
Pair work, small-group exchanges and role-plays in every single lesson. You’re talking, not taking notes.
A perfect companion to our French through Culture courses — the spoken counterpart that brings structured French to life.
Repeat, recycle and extend key phrases until they’re instinctive. You leave each lesson sounding more like yourself, in French.
Four Parisian moments at their most fluent — storytelling, opinion, nuance and play. No grammar to memorise, only French to live and speak.
Hold the room with an anecdote — timing, detail and that very French sense of drama.
Debate food, fashion and the latest favourites — opinions, nuance and a little playful disagreement.
Keep a table talking for hours — the art of French conversation over a meal.
Talk neighbourhoods, culture and city living like someone who truly belongs here.
Our learners don’t study French — they speak it, from the very first lesson.
“After three lessons I ordered my whole dinner in French — the waiter never switched to English. That feeling is everything.”
“It’s not a class, it’s a conversation with friends in Paris. I laugh, I speak, and somehow I’m fluent now.”
“No grammar drills, just talking. By lesson five I was speed-dating in French and loving it.”
“I’ve tried apps for years. One lesson of speaking with a real Parisian teacher did more than all of them.”
The pedagogical strength of a national institution — brought to adult learners worldwide, live from France.
