Our comprehensive 5-week program is the ideal fide preparation for A2 and B1 level students. With our Super Profs, you will learn all there is to know about the exam format, content, topics and scenarios so you will know what to expect on the day of the exam. Ready to succeed with flying colors?
Are you a resident of one of the 7 French-speaking cantons of Switzerland and would like to successfully pass your Swiss test in order to renew/obtain your Permis B, C or Swiss naturalisation?
If you want to stay in Switzerland in the long term, you will eventually need to pass the A1/A2/B1 Swiss oral and written tests.
Applicants for residency or work permits in Suisse romande must indeed demonstrate their speaking, comprehension and writing skills in the local language, a pre-requisite in order to later renew or obtain your Permis B, C (régulier/anticipé) or Swiss Naturalisation.
Our online fide preparation group lessons are best for applicants who already have a strong A2 or weak B1 proficiency. If you are unsure of your French level, feel free to contact us to book your free French assessment.

I absolutely love working with Prêt à Parler! The team, especially Lovely and Max, are so friendly, kind, and always ready to help with any request. The group lessons were fantastic—relevant, engaging, and filled with content that sparked great discussions. Max was an incredible teacher—patient, knowledgeable, and always willing to answer our questions. His classes were both fun and insightful. I learned so much and truly enjoyed the experience."

Just do it! The group lessons were really great and very relevant. Iris was an amazing teacher—patient and always ready to correct us when needed. Even though I joined the group later in the sessions, she made me feel completely included. I truly appreciated her approach and the supportive environment!

I found the content of the lessons to be relevant to me. The Super Prof handles the group sessions very well. Each participant is given time to talk.

I initially had no idea what to expect but the way Super Prof Brice handles the group lessons works well for me. This kind of group lesson is exactly what I need. Un grand merci!
Starr Benyon
This is a very affordable, convenient, and effective way to learn French online. My professor customizes my learning materials and the way she teaches depending on my level and progress. Most of all, I have gained my confidence in speaking without necessarily going out of my house.
Yoshiyuki Oshima - Technical Officer / UN Plus Coordinator at UNAIDS
It has been extremely difficult for me to get over the speaking with confidence hurdle. However, I am enjoying the group sessions so far. Isabelle is very clear and connects well with the class! The speed of each group session is just perfect and they are interesting for me.
Ekta Sikder
My Super Prof Brice is very enthusiastic and allows all the participants to participate in the intervention during the course. His passion and attitude helped a lot with my motivation.
Alejandra
I get enough time to speak during the group lesson which is great! The speed is just perfect and I find the group lessons interesting so far.
Sara Schabas
I would highly recommend Prêt à Parler to anyone who either wants to improve their French level or want to take an official test. I used to listen to different Webinars in the evenings after work, while making dinners and did exercises online whenever I could. I also took some lessons with Yohann who is very organised, patient, and funny, and gave me a lot of tips to use in the DELF B1 exam.
Maria Poacher - PàP Client since June 2021
The group conversation sessions have been really good! Isabelle has been really pleasant and I feel like talking in our group sessions.
Paola Andrea Martinez Murillo
Super Prof Brice was a good facilitator, letting the students express themselves as much as possible and only intervening to provide vocabulary and ideas to keep the conversations going. The formula developed by Prêt à Parler for Club de Conversation was very effective and fun!
Tuan Do
Club de Conversation was really enjoyable! I enjoyed the lessons and the teacher's energy. My head explodes with all the grammar rules and writing so finding a group lesson that suits my needs and at my level was a godsend. The group was easy to talk to, and the prof was approachable, helpful, and motivating. The times and dates were suitable as well for work!
Sushma Cherion
Excellent service and support from the whole team. I've been working on my French with super professor Vincent and it has been a great experience. A great company focused on its customers.
