Chez Géraldine – Join Now

That’s entirely up to you! Like a cruise, you can participate in as many or as few activities as you wish. We expect that most members who see real progress will engage with the content for about 3 hours per week, but this truly depends on things like your learning style, level, and personal goals.

We recommend being at least an “advanced beginner” to join Chez Géraldine, and we provide content and support all the way up to the most advanced speakers! While we’ve charted a clear course that will take you from “spoken French novice” to “confident conversationalist”, you can also get your personalized learning path based on your own level and goals.

That said, if your French is rusty or you want to review your spoken French basics, you can start with our Spoken French Essentials course.

Absolutely! Many of our students return to French after years (or even decades) away. Chez Géraldine is designed to help you ease back in gently, with clear guidance and supportive resources—no judgment, no overwhelm.

All of the content, learning resources, and community features are available in our private learning platform, which can be accessed at school.commeunefrancaise.com from any device — computer, tablet, or phone. You don’t need any special software or apps, just an internet connection!

Live sessions with Géraldine and Fabien will be hosted on Zoom. If you aren’t sure how to access Zoom, you can email us at help@commeunefrancaise.com and we’ll send you some resources to help.

No worries. You can submit your questions in advance and watch the replay at your convenience. You can also ask questions in the community forum or below course lessons at any time.

No. Going forward, the Chez Géraldine membership is the only way to access our premium courses and content. Individual programs will no longer be sold separately (except possibly on rare occasions). The good news? This all-inclusive model gives you a much more comprehensive, flexible way to improve your fluency, with content that grows with you over time.

Don’t worry, you’ll maintain access to any courses you’ve previously purchased prior to May 2025, even if you cancel your membership later. As long as you’re a member of Chez Géraldine, you’ll also gain access to everything else in the membership, including all future content!

Because the membership offers such high value, we aren’t offering additional discounts for previously purchased courses.

Yes! As long as you maintain your membership without interruption, your 30% founding member discount will continue for life. This is our way of thanking early supporters.

Yes! Monthly memberships automatically renew each month, but you can cancel at any time with just one click. If you cancel, you’ll keep full access until the end of your current billing period, and you won’t be charged again.

Annual memberships are a full-year commitment, meaning you’ll pay upfront for 12 months of access. After that, your membership will renew each year unless you cancel. We will send you at least two notices before your renewal date. 

For both monthly and annual plans, you’re protected by our 30-day money-back guarantee. If you’re not happy for any reason, just cancel within your first 30 days for a full refund—no questions asked.

Comme une Française welcomes eager students regardless of gender.

No problem! Just send us an email at help@commeunefrancaise.com and we’ll be happy to answer that for you. We answer emails Monday – Friday.
