Speaking French in a group
You understand French. You read it, you watch films in it, maybe you even think in it sometimes. But when the moment comes to actually speak, the words are slower than the conversation. The Live French Club fixes that. Every week, you join a small online group, led by a native French teacher, where the only thing you do is speak French about something worth talking about.

Who the Live French Club is for
The Live French Club is built for adults at B1 level or above:
expats keeping their French alive abroad | professionals who use French at work and want to stay sharp | francophiles in love with France’s language and culture | DELF or DALF candidates who need spontaneous speaking practice | returning learners who understand far more than they can say out loud
If you’re a complete beginner, or if you’re looking for a structured grammar course, the Club isn’t the right fit. Start with our French for Beginners course instead, then join the Club once you reach B1.
What a Live French Club session looks like
30-minute sessions, on Zoom, in French only. A maximum of 12 participants, plus one Live French teacher who guides the conversation.
Each month follows the same rhythm:
- a session on a French grammar point that gets used in real conversation, not the textbook kind.
- a session on a French culture topic like a film, a tradition, a regional habit, something you'd actually discuss with French friends.
- a session on a free conversation theme, often suggested by members.
- a guided conversation or debate to trigger discussion in a supportive environment
You’ll hear different accents, different ways of building a sentence, different cultural references. You’ll learn to listen and respond in real time, which is exactly what happens when you’re in France.
“The Club is something I genuinely look forward to every week. We share opinions, we practice, we listen to people from completely different countries, it makes learning French fun, not homework.”
Elena, Italy
Schedule
Sessions run on Mondays and Tuesdays at 7:30 PM Paris time. Each session lasts 30 minutes. You book the slot that fits your week, and you can switch between Monday and Tuesday from one week to the next.
