How it works

How Private Lessons Work

Our private French classes, live online across Canada, are built around you. You reach your language goals faster because every lesson targets what you need. Our tutors have years of experience teaching French for personal growth, academic studies, and immigration.

  1. Tell us your goals and level

    TEF prep? Conversation? Business French? We start with an initial assessment to understand your current level and your goals.

  2. We match you with the right teacher

    Experienced, native French tutors from France and Quebec, with years of experience teaching French for personal growth, academic studies, and immigration.

  3. You set the schedule

    Choose your package: 1, 4, 8, or 12 classes of 60 or 90 minutes, 1-on-1 or with your own group. Pick the days and times that work for you, Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM Pacific time.

  4. Start learning and track your progress

    Your teacher prepares customized content for every session. No two lessons are the same. Regular assessments and feedback show your progress, and when your package ends you simply book the next one.

Private lessons are 100% customized to your goals: your teacher plans every session around what you need. Group classes follow a structured curriculum (Levels 1 to 6) at a fixed pace. Private is best for specific goals, deadlines, or flexibility. Group is best for structured learning and social motivation. Many students do both.
