A Different Approach to French

Optimizing your conversational skills is a powerful gateway to breaking down barriers and forging meaningful connections in French.

If you're a Francophile, this one-of-a-kind course will take your journey to the next level. Although I usually teach this material to students well-versed in formal, written French, this course is conducted in English (& French), welcoming anyone with a genuine interest in authentic French to reap its tremendous real-life rewards :)

Simple Habits for Radical Results

"Mastering the Art of Spoken French" was designed to be a positive and impactful learning experience. The course starts with the basics of spoken French (accentuation) and works its way up to the advanced concept of dislocation, which is prevalent in conversations yet not taught in regular French classes. The video lessons are short, concise and to the point. They will provide you with strategic tools to improve your understanding of spoken patterns in record time and bring you closer to fluency. Several practice activities will also help you process your new skills along the way.

Conversational French Coach Christelle Rolland

I'm a native French speaker with 15+ years of experience teaching at the University level in the US. For me, teaching French extends far beyond helping people discover a foreign language and culture. It's an incredible journey of witnessing their growth as they tap into their hidden potential, amplify their voices, and forge their own distinct paths of self-discovery.
