I´m enrolled in a one year transformation course from level 0 to TEF/TCF exam. The course is well structured and giving you a lot of information. It goes without saying that there´s a lot of self-study needed outside of the course, however, you can always ask for a help from your teacher or study group. I spent my first 6 months of the course with Frédérique and I´m so grateful for everything I learnt in her classes. Her teaching style and positive attitude made classes easier. Even though the learning process was difficult (obviously, because it´s French), I had a lot of fun during the lessons.

Transformation
In Their Words
Our students tell it best. Watch real stories from learners who started from zero and now speak French with confidence.

I'm a learner of online courses from level 1 to level 6. The entire program is professionally designed, both challenging and rewarding. Under the guidance of my charismatic teacher, Anne, it's truly possible to go from not being able to pronounce anything at the beginning to communicating confidently within six months. I was indeed a complete beginner with zero background knowledge.
I was enrolled in the French levels 4-6 course with Maïwen over the last few months. All the students were very kind and all the material were explained clearly. Due to the small class size, every student has abundant opportunity to participate and practice the newly learned concepts, often in relationship to real life scenarios. Overall, I really enjoyed my time here and improved tremendously.
I loved taking French classes with Maï! Learning a language can be challenging but Maï made it a very enjoyable experience. She is incredibly detail oriented and does a wonderful job of creating engaging course material based on one’s learning style and interests. She helped me improve my French from an A2 - B1 in 3-4 months!
I completed Levels 4-6 in person and have just finished 1 month of TEF/TCF Prep. My experience has been extremely positive and I would fully recommend Learn French in Vancouver. Our teacher, Maï, uses her empathy and energy to create an environment where I have felt comfortable to make mistakes and push myself. This has helped me improve my French a great deal. Maï's lessons have been fun, engaging, and she is able to adapt the level of challenge for each class member.
I had an outstanding experience learning French with Maiwen at Learn French in Vancouver. From the very first class, it was clear that Maiwen is not only highly knowledgeable, but also deeply passionate about teaching. She creates a warm, encouraging environment that makes even the most challenging aspects of the language feel approachable. What really sets Maiwen apart is her ability to tailor lessons to each student’s needs. Whether you’re a complete beginner or looking to refine advanced skills, she adapts her teaching style so you’re always progressing at the right pace. Her explanations are clear, her examples are practical, and she brings a lot of cultural context into the lessons, which makes learning much more engaging and meaningful. Thanks to Maiwen, my confidence in speaking French has improved dramatically. I would highly recommend Learn French in Vancouver to anyone who is serious about learning the language in a supportive and inspiring environment.
