Are You Afraid of Speaking French?

Howard Yu

I recently finished a private FIDE preparation course with 10 lessons, and I’m really happy with my experience. My teacher, Marjolaine Moulin, was super kind, patient, and very organized.

Marjolaine quickly identified the areas where I needed improvement and helped me focus on the specific skills required for the exam. We practiced exactly the kinds of tasks I would encounter, especially in speaking and listening. I felt well-prepared on exam day and was able to achieve the B1 level.

I’d definitely recommend Prêt à Parler to anyone getting ready for the FIDE test. The support and teaching were at a very high level!

I really enjoyed my lessons with Super Prof Vincent. Vincent is a miracle worker, very professional and patient and he made learning French fun. Thanks to him I just passed my FIDE exam and exceeded my own expectations plus I have gained so much more confidence in speaking French. The whole PaP team are very enthusiastic and lovely to work with. Highly recommended!

My teacher has been wonderful! I passed the FIDE test with B1 in both writing and speaking. I am sooo proud of myself, I cannot believe it.

I want to THANK Basile with all my heart and soul for the patience and the speed with which he poured knowledge into my head. Each session was like 5 sessions with other teachers before. You are an amazing teacher, Basile!

To any expats hesitating to reach out to Prêt à Parler — don’t wait! This has been one of the best French learning decisions I’ve made. The lessons were great: dynamic, well-structured, and tailored to my goals. My teacher, Basile, was incredibly supportive and skilled, and the preparation for the FIDE exam was spot-on. I felt confident, ready, and really enjoyed the process. It’s absolutely worth the price, not just for passing an exam, but for feeling comfortable speaking French in real life.

Prêt à Parler CH is a wonderful option for those looking for a highly customized and flexible learning environment. My schedule made it very difficult to take traditional French courses. Prêt à Parler CH's remote option meets all my needs for this, and my French professor, Marjolaine, created a very custom program to meet my French language needs. I look forward to working with Marjolaine and Prêt à Parler CH in the future to continue my French language journey.

I recently took the FIDE online group lessons with Prêt à Parler to prepare for my FIDE exam, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. The lessons were absolutely fantastic: practical, engaging, and perfectly tailored to the exam format. The teacher created a supportive and dynamic atmosphere that made it easy to participate and improve quickly. Thanks to this excellent preparation, I passed the FIDE exam with flying colors! Highly recommended for anyone who wants to feel confident and ready.

J’ai fait la préparation pour l’examen FIDE et j’ai trouvé le cours très utile. Le SUPERPROF Brice est très gentil et, chaque semaine, nous avançons avec les différents thèmes et la pratique pour l’examen.

I can't speak highly enough of Marjolaine! She's been a fantastic teacher, endlessly patient, informative, and engaging. She has built my confidence and ability to a level I didn't think was possible when I began.
It might seem a little daunting at first, and it's definitely a commitment, but cast your doubts aside, make the call, then dive in and take the lessons with Prêt à Parler—you won't regret it! I've found all the lessons interesting, varied, and very relevant to the Fide test. When I take it, I feel I'll be as well prepared as I can be!

I took a course to prepare for the fide test. I have significantly improved my knowledge and I am well prepared for the exam. I passed the B1 exam at the first attempt! I could not have done it without Prêt à Parler. I highly recommend this firm to anyone who wants to improve their spoken French, understand grammar, develop their vocabulary and pass the exam.
