Frequently asked questions

What does a French session look like?

Your tutor starts a conversation in French, about your day, a trip or a topic you pick, and keeps it at your level. You answer out loud or by typing, and a correction appears under each message.

What do the corrections cover?

Gender and agreement, verb forms and the subjunctive, with the corrected sentence and a more natural version. When you speak, each word also gets a pronunciation score. Tap any word to see what it means in your language.

Which levels does the French path cover?

A1 to C1: 143 short lessons and 26 roleplays, starting at the level you choose. Free Talk works at any level.
