French - Beginner
This course is ideal for:
Anybody who has the very basics of French and wants to make rapid progress with an immersive day of French. Maybe you studied French a very long time ago and you’re feeling rusty. Or you’ve been doing a lot of Duolingo but you still can’t seem to speak much French or put sentences together. This is a post-beginners, one-day immersive course that covers all the content of Beginners 2 French in a single day, with a light French-themed lunch included!
By the end of the day, you’ll have
– learned lots of new vocabulary (and you’ll go away with word cards to practice with)
– touched on some fundamental grammar points
– had a number of mini conversations in French with your fellow learners
– played games, done written exercises, and learned memory techniques to help the language stick after the day
After the one-day course is finished, you’ll go away with all your materials and access to the online learning environment where you can remind yourself of what you’ve learned with videos, online tests, and more.
There’ll also be the opportunity to sign up for Beginners 3 in September 2025 (the more traditional, slow version – weekly classes!) at a reduced rate.

Course Teacher
I’ve always had a passion for languages and words! When I was a pre-teen, I decided to teach myself Russian using an old language book from my local library (I didn’t get too far, though!). Family holidays in France and a wonderful French pen-pal in Brittany sparked my lifelong love for French. This led to studying in Paris, marrying a bilingual French/English speaker, and having three kids with dual nationality. Helping others go from feeling flustered to fluent is something I truly enjoy and feel privileged to do for a living. I’ll never forget what it’s like to be a beginner myself, tongue-tied and unsure (I’m currently trying my hand at Romanian, so I know the feeling well!). What I love about Language for Fun is how its methods build confidence in speaking the language from day one, all without putting learners on the spot.
