How you start speaking French in three steps
You speak French in your first lesson. Instructors teach in French rather than about French, so you practise from the start, downtown or live online.
Place your level
A 20 minute online test sets your level from A1 to C2, so your programme starts where you actually are.
Build the plan around your deadline
A TEF Canada date, an SLE, Express Entry or a bilingual role: your advisor sets the path and the timeline to match.
Speak French, fast
Immersion at our downtown centre or live online with native fluent instructors. Most learners hold a conversation in 8 to 14 weeks.
