Where they started, where they got to

Four students, four different goals

From knowing to speaking

Barbara started putting her French into conversation.

She already knew vocabulary and grammar, but struggled to join a conversation. During her first three months, friendly, non-judgmental feedback helped her use that knowledge and build confidence speaking.

Barbara

An advanced learner’s exam goal

Louise joined at B2. She later passed her C1 exam.

Louise joined in June 2025 and completed three months of coaching with François, with writing support from Sabrina. Her coach confirmed her C1 pass in December, and she later returned for more coaching.

Louise

French for a real trip

Anne took her French into everyday life in Québec.

She wanted private coaching focused on everyday conversations. After twelve weeks, she reported speaking confidently with locals during a trip to the Gaspé region, from shops and restaurants to telephone calls.

Anne

Deeper connections in France

Karen felt closer to her French-speaking friends.

After moving to Paris, she found conversation challenging despite knowing grammar and vocabulary. With coaching adapted to her interests, she became better able to express herself and described deeper relationships with her French friends.

Independent reviews

What students write on Trustpilot

Excerpts from reviews on our independent Trustpilot profile, where you can read every review, positive and critical.

Trustpilot · September 2026

My sessions with Charles, my coach, are the highlight of my week. Not only do I have the opportunity to speak, but it serves as a focal point for the written and audio work I do during the week. Charles is kind and patient and an excellent language teacher. It’s really motivating to have one other living person care about my progress. It makes all the difference.

Trustpilot · September 2026

My bespoke personalised programme was devised once my levels of understanding had been ascertained, and it truly was an excellent fit. … Throughout the programme I received detailed and insightful feedback regarding my written exercises and audio recordings. Each session was meticulously planned and was supplemented with extensive feedback on my achievements and what I needed to focus on. … My language skills and confidence have improved immensely.

Jem
Trustpilot · June 2026

Before joining, I had a basic foundation in French, but I often felt overwhelmed by everything I needed to learn and wasn’t always sure what to focus on next. I was extremely insecure about my speaking in particular! … My coach, Jonathan, is also a huge part of my success. … Today I feel so much more comfortable having conversations in French and navigating daily life in France.

Tracy
Trustpilot · May 2026

Talk in French has really accelerated my French progress. You just cannot compare to immediate feedback from a coach, and Jerome has been extremely helpful in improving my pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary in our one on one sessions. I’ve also really appreciated the feedback on my essays from Sabrina and truly feel that this has been one of the most valuable parts of the program.

Catherine
Trustpilot · May 2026

Love how it’s organized yet friendly. Structured but allows self paced learning too which I appreciate. Totally love the quick and honest lesson feedbacks from tutors. They are so patient and dedicated to see improvements. I recommend!

Pat
Trustpilot · May 2026

My tutor Khaoula has been outstanding and is exactly what I was looking for; … the general structure of the program and activities outside of the actual tutoring sessions, the community, Sabrina’s challenge activities, the editing, and Frédéric’s e-mails, all point to a program that is well designed and well run. … Everyone associated with this program has been extremely supportive and helpful.

Trustpilot reviewer
Trustpilot · April 2026

My two coaches prepared resources and tasks that required me to extend my French and do more than converse about familiar and easy topics. … I enrolled in the FLA program last year to prepare me for a visit to France. I wanted to arrive in France and be able to converse easily with French people. … This happened, I was so surprised by the number of positive comments that I received, about my spoken French.

Susan
Trustpilot · May 2026

I have signed up again for 12 weeks. I mainly use the 2 sessions a week of coaching, listening to French news the rest of the time. I am 83 so it is going slowly but I notice the difference in my comprehension of conversational French and I am quite satisfied.

David
Trustpilot · May 2026

The learning pace is constant but unforced and the staff are super-friendly and helpful. Topics allow for self-expression and interest.

Louise
Trustpilot · March 2026

The coach is smart and communicative and knows my goals for learning French. He and the admins are quick to respond to any problems I might have (despite the 8-hour time difference), basically personalizing the course for me. … The French Language Accelerator Program is way better than any other language learning I’ve attempted.

Diane
Trustpilot · February 2026

If you are serious about learning French, this is it. I tried everything I can find to learn French for years. … The program is tailored to the individual’s level and goals. I feel like I am in a formal language learning school, but conveniently learning at home. … At the beginning I chose to meet my teacher once a week for an hour, I enjoyed it so much that I decided to meet her twice a week to speed up my learning.

Lu
Trustpilot · February 2026

I’ve searched for years through books, CDs, and online courses, but abandoned each, as none of them really gave me confidence that I would progress in learning and speaking French. But I now have confidence, enthusiasm, and support. … My French speaking, reading, and writing has improved so much, and I’m going to keep going!
