Understand everyday French and finally speak it without fumbling for words.
In just 15 minutes a day, you practice speaking somewhere no one’s judging you, so the fear of making mistakes fades and your next conversations in French feel a lot less daunting.
Built on language acquisition research: listen, practice, interact.
Nice to meet you
Since 2019, I've helped students who freeze when the conversation speeds up.
"I understand you when you talk on YouTube, but the moment a native speaks fast, I freeze." - the feedback I hear most often.
The problem isn't your motivation, your memory, or your vocabulary. It's that no one ever taught you the contractions, swallowed sounds, and natural speed of everyday French.
So I built this course around everyday conversations, more than 150 role-plays, and guided scenes with Jean to help you follow conversations and respond without freezing up.
The 360 Conversation Loop · 3-step method
Three connected stages that take you all the way to real conversations.
With the 360 Conversation Loop, you stop jumping between random exercises and speaking practice that has nothing to do with them. You follow one guided path I designed around everyday spoken French, where each stage prepares the next.
01
Decode
Get used to how French really sounds.
Start with dialogues written and recorded by native French speakers. Not artificial voices, not unnaturally perfect textbook French. Word-by-word karaoke lets you follow every sound, replay difficult passages, and finally understand the words that used to disappear.
Sounds that used to blur together start turning into words.
Eight connected activities help you practice the same dialogue in different ways: pronunciation, dictation, grammar, vocabulary and role-play. Your pronunciation is scored word by word. Then you speak with Jean, your personal AI conversation partner. He knows what you’ve been studying, and you can hesitate, make mistakes and try again as often as you need. The best part? Jean never judges you.
This is where you stop just listening and start speaking.

Au fait, la dernière fois tu me parlais de ton voyage prévu à Lyon. Tu y vas quand exactement ?
You · speakingJe vais avoir... euh... je vais partir en juillet, pour une semaine.
D'accord. Et tu as déjà une idée des restos que tu veux essayer, ou tu improvises une fois là-bas ?

Connect
Put your French to use in real conversations.
Practicing alone is valuable. But eventually, you need to speak with people who don’t follow a script. Every week, you join a small group of learners on a video call. Jean starts the conversation, offers discreet help when you’re stuck, and gives you a private feedback report afterward.
Nobody expects perfect French. You’re there to practice.

Our students, in their own words
What my students say about their progress.
Dave KobrenskiUnited States 360 French Immersion student
“Despite all my efforts, I felt like I would never understand native speakers when they spoke at their usual pace! Luckily, I met Elisabeth and Mathieu and discovered their 360 French Immersion program. It changed everything. I can finally understand and speak French without stress, even when I’m in France.”
