INTRODUCING:
THE FRENCH CONVERSATION CLUB

Practice your spoken French with a supportive, international group of Francophiles

Do you want to converse in French with more confidence?

When it comes to learning a language (or anything, for that matter), practice makes perfect. And that’s why I created The French Conversation Club!

No more holding back because you don’t feel confident in your French conversation skills. It’s time to use the French you’ve put so much time and effort into learning!

The French Conversation Club allows you to regularly challenge yourself to speak in French and activate your brain, all within a safe community of likeminded Francophiles.

With The French Conversation Club, you get to…

✔ Practice up to 36 times a week

✔ Connect with an international community of people who love French as much as you do

✔ Learn from highly qualified French teachers

✔ Stay connected with French culture and French life

All so you can get build your confidence, get better at speaking and understanding spoken French, and activate your brain on a consistent basis.

MEET YOUR TEACHERS

Each practice session is held by a qualified, Francophone teacher, handpicked and trained by me, Géraldine. You will love them!

Their qualifications go WAY beyond what I dreamed for The French Conversation Club, and they bring so many fresh ideas and skills that I could never bring to my students on my own. 

Watch the video to hear them introduce themselves to you, and read about why I think they make amazing French teachers.

Pauline

Pauline is a very bubbly teacher, and I love her big expressions! She loves to give students little tips to help them understand the grammar points they’ve been struggling with for a while. Most of all, though, she’s all about French culture, bringing an extra cultural layer to what she teachers. She’ll happily tell you about French TV series and books, and makes learning even more interesting for Francophiles.

Fabien

Fabien’s speciality is making you feel more confident in your French conversation skills. He is a patient and kind teacher, and can easily adapt to different learning styles. His passion is helping beginners, and he really loves helping people build the confidence they need to actually speak French. When they’re new to French, many students don’t think they know enough French to express themselves – but he will show you that you can! Originally from Toulouse, he has also lived in Scotland, Australia, and is now based in the US – so he brings an international experience that greatly benefits our global student base.

Milica

Milica is originally from Serbia, but was surrounded by French-speaking people her entire life. While she may not be a native speaker, her French is better than mine! She has lived in Lyon, France for many years. Since 2013, she’s taught French to students of all ages, backgrounds, and countries. She adapts her teaching method to suit each individual student’s learning goals, and brings an impressive technical knowledge to the Club.

Garance

Garance has been teaching French for almost 15 years, and it’s easy to see that she is passionate about it. Originally from Paris, she lived in Japan for a number of years before relocating to San Diego with her family. She’s very enthusiastic about French culture and is so excited to meet Francophiles around the world to help them learn more about the French language and culture.

Lucie

Lucie is originally from Toulouse, and has been teaching French to students from all around the world for several years now. I really love the unique cultural perspective that Lucie brings to the Club, and her passion for dance, art, and the way that language evolves helps us bring fresh new angles and topics to our sessions. Any student who does a session with Lucie is sure to walk away feeling cared for, informed, and intellectually nourished.

Julie

Julie is from a town near Nantes in Northwestern France, but currently lives in Mexico. She earned her Master’s degree in 2020 and has been teaching French ever since. She loves meeting people from all over the world and is excited to talk to you about all things French culture. She particularly loves swapping stories and anecdotes with students in Conversation Club sessions.

weekly schedule

The French Conversation Club has 36 weekly sessions, and you can attend as often as you’d like! 

(This includes 10 beginner sessions, 14 intermediate sessions, and 12 advanced sessions.)

Think of it like a gym membership for your mind + French conversation skills. You can “visit the gym” once a week… seven times a week… somewhere in between… whatever feels good to you! 

Here’s our current schedule:

A SAMPLE WEEK INSIDE THE FRENCH CONVERSATION CLUB

Each week, we’ll focus on a different theme to help you speak French more fluently.

Each Saturday, before the week starts, you’ll be sent a document containing… 

  • A list of resources from around the web that you can discover
  • Vocabulary lists
  • Extra quizzes and activities (for extra practice, if you wish)
  • Conversation practice questions to use with your partner
  • Your teacher’s notes from the lesson

All of the resources will have been created by Comme une Française — so it will be the exact style you know and love from my paid programs + weekly lessons 🙂

(The above button will redirect you to a Google Doc containing lesson information. If you wish to join The French Conversation Club, you’ll have to return to this page, using the ‘Back’ button on your browser.)

We’re here to help you every step of the way. Here’s how we support you, as a new member:

 

  • New members to the club will be invited to private orientation sessions. These are real sessions, just like you’ll experience throughout your membership, but oriented for new members with more guided instructions.
  • You’ll have the chance to do a level evaluation in your orientation session, so you can feel 100% confident that you’re in the right place. This will help you better understand whether to join “Beginner”, “Intermediate”, or “Advanced” sessions.
  • We’ll check in with you every couple of weeks during your first few months to help you set clear expectations for yourself and your progress and set clear, achievable goals – all so you can make real, obvious progress in your ability to speak and understand everyday French.
  • You’ll also be given a worksheet (as seen on the right) that you can use at the end of every French Conversation Club session, helping you make note of the things you’ve learned, better gauge your progress, and set realistic goals ahead of your next session.

The Price

The cost of The French Conversation Club is €69 per month (plus VAT, if applicable to your country). 

This gives you access to 36 1-hour live practice sessions every week. Each week we’ll focus on a different theme to help you speak French more fluently.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Click the arrow next to each question to reveal the answer.

The truth is, if you think your French is rusty then The French Conversation Club is perfect for you! The main goal of the Club is to help you become more confident in using your French, so you can “clean off” that “rusty” French and make it shiny and new again 😉 ! 

Please don’t worry about slowing others down. As a newcomer to the Club, you’ll have the chance to meet other “newbies” — and trust me, 90% of them also feel like their French is rusty. You’re in great company.

The teachers also know which students are new, and they’ll reach out to you if it seems like you need extra support.

Not to mention, we have sessions for ALL levels – beginners, intermediate, and advanced speakers. You’re guaranteed to find your “people”.

My best suggestion? If you’re really passionate about not just learning French but actually using it — give The French Conversation Club a try. I’m sure you’ll love it. And if you decide it’s not for you after all, you can stop your subscription anytime in one click.

The level recommended is A2-B1-B2 (according to the CEFR level reference). 

Don’t know your “official level”? If you feel like the words get stuck in your brain when you try to speak and/or you don’t feel confident enough to speak French because of your mistakes and/or you think your French is rusty, then this is for you.

As a new member, you’ll have the opportunity to join “orientation sessions” where your teachers will evaluate your level and let you know if you’re best suited for the beginner, intermediate, or advanced sessions.

If you’re more of a complete beginner and would like a program suited to your needs, click here for information on my French for Beginners program.

The teachers and I have made a deliberate effort to ensure there is at least one weekly session that works for all time zones. 

The best way to check is to click here to see the full Conversation Club schedule. You can use the dropdown menu at the bottom of the calendar to change it to your time zone.

Online! Each practice session will be held using the video conference software Zoom. 

Downloading and using Zoom is free for you. I pay a licence for Comme une Française. You can use Zoom on your computer, tablet or phone. The teachers will help you use Zoom during the meeting.

Each French Conversation Club session lasts one hour. 

In each session, you’ll be welcomed by the teacher who will re-introduce the topic of the week. Then they’ll put you in groups of two to three to practice your French with a fellow student for 15-20 minutes.

Your teacher will come to listen to parts of your conversation during the practice. 

There will be a 10 minute break at half past the hour to fix mistakes, ask questions, and get new vocabulary. 

Then you’ll start again with another 2-3 students, for another 15-20 minutes. The teacher will then do a recap of the lesson at the end.

The number of students in each session will change, as you have the option to come to as many or as few sessions as you’d like! 

However, your small practice group will only ever have 2-3 participants. This gives everyone plenty of time to practice speaking.

The computer / Zoom will pair you with your conversation partner(s) automatically — which, yes, may mean you get paired with someone who is less or more advanced than you.

This is great news for your progression. Practicing with people at a lower level will help you cement your skills, and practicing with people at a higher level will inspire and push you! 

There will never be more than 3 people per small practice group.

No! You can attend as many (or as little) sessions as you’d like.

You can think of The French Conversation Club like a gym membership for your mind + French conversation skills. You can “visit the gym” once a week… five times a week… somewhere in between… whatever feels good to you!

No problem! Just come next week :). There will be no replay available, as this is a conversation practice program, but you will have access to the teachers’ notes.

We do not offer refunds on your membership to The French Conversation Club. Once you purchase a monthly, 6-month, or annual membership option, you are fully committed to that option and will not be refunded for any unused time.

Monthly memberships automatically renew each month, but you can cancel at any time with a single click. The cancellation link will be available in every French Conversation Club email. If you do wish to leave, you’ll have access to the French Conversation Club for the rest of the 30-day period (which started on the day you registered, and every 30 days after that) and you won’t be charged again. 

6-month and annual membership are not automatically renewed, so you don’t have to worry about cancelling. We will not charge you again at the end of your membership period. Instead, we will email you at the end of your membership period to ask if you wish to re-join for another 6 months or year.

This policy allows us to fairly compensate our teachers and provide the best possible experience for all French Conversation Club members. Thank you for understanding!

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.

I love the weekly themes and materials to prepare in advance, along with the applicable vocabulary shared by the teachers. And, of course, the practice with a partner and teacher correction that follows!
I already listen to many French podcasts, but this practice has given me more confidence when speaking with my French tutor. Try it!  You’ll love it.

I have made some friends in the club, and it is so great to see those same faces in the sessions, day after day. They offer wonderful encouragement! The profs are excellent — so knowledgeable, kind, patient and fun. 
The most important aspect of the club for me is that I have overcome my intense fear of speaking French. I am now speaking freely and am no longer afraid of making mistakes.  Wow! That’s huge for me!!
Now, I write my grocery list in French, I talk to my dogs in French, I watched all 5 seasons of Un Village Français, and I now have regular contact with one of my convo club colleagues via FaceTime.
