From 1 to 10, how comfortable do you feel to speak French?
If you chose 9 or 10, well done! Maybe we should just get a coffee and chat, because the conversation classes are not really for you.
On the other hand, whenever you want or have to speak French, if you feel...
- embarrassed
- stuck
- nervous
- insecure
- unable to build the "right" sentence
- unable to remember simple words
Or all of the above...
...keep on reading, because the conversation classes are the solution you need!
How are the conversation classes different from the courses?
While improving speaking skills is always an important part in the courses, the main purpose is to LEARN the language (with listening comprehensions,
grammar practice and of course vocabulary).
The conversation classes are the stage for your speaking practice. They are an opportunity to express verbally everything you have learned, to practice your ability to respond and communicate fluently. They are the way to your ultimate goal: speak French.
How does it work?
Each class and its own topic!
Before the class, you will receive a vocabulary list related to the topic so that you can check and revise what you already know, learn a few words and get ready.
During the class, I will ask questions and make sure every participant answer. I will also help with required vocabulary or grammar and give corrections if needed.
The questions are an opportunity to start a conversation between the participants.
At the end of each class, you will receive the recording and the screenshots.
Full disclosure: it will be challenging, perhaps even frustrating at the first class, but at the second one you will already feel improvement!
The conversation classes will allow you to:
-
meet other people at the same level in French and thus feel safer talking.
-
enrich vocabulary in diverse and useful fields
-
learn from others (from their knowledge and mistakes)
-
practice speaking in a supportive and non-judgmental atmosphere
-
maximize all the knowledge you've acquired in the past for fluent speech

About me
My name is Delphine Woda and I am a native and independent teacher for French as a second language (FLE).
I have been teaching French since 2007, mainly to adults, in private and group lessons, in regular classrooms and online.
Through my professional experience but also as I myself learned three foreign languages (English, German and Hebrew), I am fully aware of the challenge, the difficulties, and the frustrations in the learning process.
My goal is to provide you with the tools to learn by yourself and constantly improve your knowledge in order to be able to communicate in French, mostly speak and understand.
The resources you will find here will give you the opportunity to learn and practice the different skills: listening and reading comprehension, grammar, and speaking competence.
Just do it on your own rhythm and contact me for any help.
Delphine guides the class with pleasure, creating a good atmosphere in an attentive and patient group.
Tamar
An intimate meeting of 4 people allowing anyone to express themselves.
Yael Z.
Easy and fun meeting, but you're still learning. Enhance vocabulary and develop conversational ability. Highly recommended!
Galit K.
Studying in a small group allows you to learn quickly and reach easily the stage of building sentences and conversation.

La lecon etait intersante et tres efficace.
Je pense que Delphine est tres sympatique et les explications et traductions qu'elle donne sont tres claires, Elle donne aux etudiantes le possibilite de s'exprimer et parler francaise fluentement.
Merci Delphine pour la lecon d'aujourdhui.

מעולם לא עברה לי כ"כ מהר שעת לימוד של צרפתית. דלפין מחזיקה מרחב מאפשר, נינוח ובטוח להתבטאות.
המפגשים מצוינים. מדהים כמה קשה יכול להיות פשוט לדבר... טוב שיש משוב על דרך ההיגוי של המילים, כי בצרפתית זה ממש קשה וחשוב. האווירה הנעימה והמקבלת הופכת את המפגשים לתענוג
