Stop worrying about sounding "perfect" in France. Start speaking French with confidence.
You've been dreaming about your France trip for months (maybe years).
You've tried Duolingo. You've watched countless YouTube videos. You might have even taken a class or two.
But when you imagine yourself actually speaking French in Paris — ordering at a café, asking for directions, buying train tickets — you simply freeze up!
Yikes!
What if you say it wrong?
What if they don't understand you?
What if your accent is terrible?
Here's the truth: You don't need perfect French to have an amazing trip to France and beyond.
You need Travel Ready French — the practical phrases, confident pronunciation, and real conversation skills that work in actual French cafés, train stations, and shops.
And you can learn the essentials in just 3 weeks.
Here's What Is Possible ...
Imagine this... You walk into a Parisian café. The server greets you in French.
Instead of panicking and pointing a the menu you smile and say: "Bonjour! Je voudrais un café crème, s'il vous plaît."
They Respond. You understand. You respond back. (oooooh, look at you!)
You order exactly what you want. You Pay. You Say thank you.
You did it. In French. Like it was no big deal (you go sis!)
That's what being Travel Ready in French can feel like. And it's available to you in 3 weeks.

What Makes Travel Ready French Different?
Sound-First, Grammar-Later
We start with pronunciation — it's the foundation that makes everything else easier to understand and interpret. You'll learn the key French sounds that English speakers struggle with the most, plus my personalized "funky spelling" guides that make French feel natural and easy.
Conversation Practice Over Memorization
No vocabulary lists.
No flash cards.
No memorizing the same five words over and over again like "un chien, une banane et une pomme."
Instead, you'll practice real scenarios that matter for your dream trip like: ordering coffee, asking questions, navigating train stations. The words stick because you're using them.
The "Connective Tissue" You're Missing
"Even though I can pull out the words, it's the connective tissue that I miss — those words that allow you to have conversation."
— Debbie, Pop Up French student
We teach you the linking words (parce que, alors, donc) that make your French flow more naturally instead of sounding choppy.
Small Group Practice
Limited to 12 women only so that you can practice with partners, ask questions throughout, and get personalized pronunciation feedback — not sit passively watching a screen.
Beginner-Friendly, Travel-Focused
Designed for A0/A1 level learners or in other words - "Super Beginners" and "Upper Beginners."
Everything is relevant to your trip: cafés, transportation, asking for help, handling real situations and more... just attend live and ask!
