Parlez Français Video Course
Introducing our flagship Parlez Français video course!
For people who want to speak French fast
Many English speakers spend months or even years learning French, yet still struggle to put a simple sentence together when they want to speak.
They recognise words.
They understand some grammar.
But when the moment comes to actually say something, everything seems to disappear.
The problem is that most French courses focus on vocabulary lists and grammar rules, instead of teaching you how to build real sentences from the start.
Parlez Français was designed to solve that problem.
Instead of memorising isolated words, you learn the key structures that allow you to build sentences immediately, step by step.
Each lesson shows you exactly what to learn and how to use it, so you can start expressing real ideas in French from the very beginning.
Many learners are surprised by how quickly things start to click — often within a few weeks — because the course focuses only on the essential patterns you need to communicate.
If you are an English speaker who wants a clear, logical method for speaking French, without wasting time on unnecessary exercises or confusing grammar explanations, this course will show you exactly how to do it.
Parlez Français is designed to help you start thinking and speaking in French sentence by sentence — naturally and confidently.
Parlez Français Level 1
Designed specifically for beginner English speakers, this course helps you build a solid foundation in spoken French. You’ll learn how to form sentences naturally using key structures and essential verbs, allowing you to talk about everyday topics such as food, travel, work and leisure. The focus is on clear, practical communication you can use straight away. There are 2 study options available: the Guided Interactive Course, and the Self-Study Course.
This course builds on the foundations of Level 1 and helps you expand your ability to communicate in everyday French. You’ll develop your sentence-building skills using a wider range of structures and essential verbs, including the present tense, the imperative and the passé composé. As you progress, you’ll learn to talk about real-life topics such as daily routines, shopping, travel, technology and health, while expressing your opinions and interacting more naturally in conversation. There are 2 study options available: The Guided Interactive Course, or The Self-Study Course.
This course builds up on level 2 and takes your French to an upper-intermediate level (B2), helping you handle more complex ideas with confidence. You’ll learn to form longer, more nuanced sentences using tenses such as the imperfect, future, conditional, pluperfect and subjunctive. You’ll develop the ability to express precise opinions, describe situations in greater detail, and discuss a wide range of real-life topics while interacting more naturally in more advanced conversations.

What students say about the course
"I really loved your course! It really changed my life as far as learning French goes. I've been trying to learn for years on my own and grew up learning it in school, but I struggled greatly. Currently, I need to learn the language for work and living opportunities and your course just clicks with me. I've learned more in this small time with your course than I did years on my own, so thank you very much."
"I love this course and I’m finding it super helpful with speaking French. My only aim is to try and speak the language (I can sort of read basic French but speaking it is another thing. These courses - with your pronunciation and comments (especially the comments) are more empowering than anything I’ve tried previously."
"The course is concise. At first glance, it appears that there is not much text. However, in the course of 30 lessons there are roughly 600 sentences or more! That’s substantial amount!!! If I learned all that, where would I end up!
I like how you organized the material. It is so practical that one can download everything, as well as to watch the videos online. Additional files, such as test, verbs, revisions - are all excellent in my opinion. I find them all extremely useful.
Regarding your videos, I find that it is so time-saving that you don’t have into and outro clips in your recorded lessons. Everything is well organized and easy to follow. It’s exactly how I like it."
"I have purchased both Level 2 and 3 and I really love the way you teach; directly, succinctly, explaining in English (my first language) about how sentences are created in French.
Often hearing French explanations of French sentences are too nuanced for my retention. If I do not understand, they don’t stick in my famously overthinking brain. I feel so clear when you explain briefly. It is with gratitude that I am still using Level 2, repeating each lesson a number of times before moving on to the next. I want to be able to translate without looking at the translation before I move on. Thank you for creating this useful program."
"I am really enjoying the course. I like that you give the sentences in English and we have to come up with the French, as it's more of a real-life situation when trying to speak. I like that you give not only brief, concise explanations, but that you also include colloquial sayings and mention when something is more formal or informal. I also enjoyed the free download that comes when signing up, and appreciate your sense of humor. "
"Thanks for a great course, which was really well structured. It has consolidated my learning very much. I started to learn French from the internet during Covid lockdown, as a pre-retirement project, so I’ve seen both the variable quality and silly prices out there. Your course was extraordinarily good value, in my opinion - even if it were twice the price, it would have been good value. In the final test, I tried to do it properly and reckon that I translated about 60 phrases near perfectly and another half dozen were a good effort but where I’d forgotten a word or format. Only about 4 or 5 were failures, so you should be proud of the learning that you’ve imparted."
"I love the Parlez Français courses! The lessons are well organized, and Claire speaks clearly and slowly enough that I can’t help but learn new words, sentence structure, and grammar, all without feeling stressed. And I appreciate learning the way people actually speak. I’ve also taken private and group lessons with Claire, which I’ve really enjoyed, as she’s easygoing, has a great sense of humor, and always makes learning fun."
"I recently purchased your Parlez Français program and it’s wonderful! The sentences are interesting with just enough difficulty to make one think yet still be successful. I love the fact that you have an explanation for the question I have in my head! Once I have completed this, I will definitely move on to your next teaching tool."

"Loving Parlez Français level 1. What I find so incredibly useful are your explanations as to how sentences are put together, what and how to explain something in French as opposed to how it’s written or articulated in English, for example. One thing that stands out was the ‘I can’t find’ sentence. Obviously, I would have (and did) say ‘je ne peux pas trouver’ and it’s that kind of information that really makes a difference."
"I’m not as young as I used to be so find learning not as easy as it used to be but find your course (level 1) to be just what I have been looking for and have enjoyed learning from it, I’ve learnt more from it than from previous courses including college. Keep up the good work!"
