French group classes

It’s time to learn the language of love, culture and gastronomy!

Small group online courses: Beginner French (A1), Intermediate French (A2+/B1), Advanced French (B2) and Pronunciation (A2-B2).

Since it is unrealistic and not always relevant to group learners who have exactly the same level—in writing, speaking, and pronunciation—I have divided my language courses into three levels: Beginner A1, Intermediate A2+/B1 and Advanced B2. I have also added a Natural Pronunciation and Conversation course accessible from level A2 but intended for all learners who want to understand and speak like native speakers (and no longer like tourists).

If you want to learn French from scratch or prepare for a French language exam (Delf, TCF, etc.), contact me here.

Group classes September - December 2026

french online class beginner A1
Beginner A1

“I want to learn the basics of French.”

You know very few—if any—French words. You want to learn how to form your first sentences to talk about yourself, your daily life, and interact with people.
Every Tuesday, from 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. (France)

level-a2-french
Intermediate A2+/B1

“I want to speak like an adult, not like a baby”

You are starting to speak French but still need to learn the basics of grammar and vocabulary and communicate in everyday situations.
Every Monday, from 5:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. (France)

level-b1-french
Advanced B2

“I want to improve and stop repeating the same mistakes.”

You know the basics—in theory—and you can have conversations in French, but you want to speak more fluently on a variety of topics (society, ecology, education, etc.).
Every Tuesday, from 5:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. (France)

french-pronunciation-native
Natural pronunciation

“I want to speak like the French, not like a tourist.”

You want to understand the French when they speak in real life (expressions, slang, language tics) and speak naturally yourself.
Levels A2 to B2
Every Wednesday, from 5:15 p.m. to 6:45 p.m. (France)

How are the classes organized?

The language classes (A1, A2+/B1 and B2) last 1.5 hours and are divided as follows: 

  • Week 1: Grammar
  • Week 2: Vocabulary
  • Week 3: Conversation about French culture
  • Week 4: Review Test


Of course, I alternate between different types of activities: quizzes, listening comprehension, writing and translation exercises.

All in a friendly atmosphere 🙂

french-classes-grammar-vocabular
french-classes-pronunciation

The natural pronunciation class also lasts 1.5 hours. You will learn everything that is not normally taught in traditional language books and classes: slang, colloquial expressions, abbreviations, verbal tics… but which make all the difference!

I alternate between activities: interviews with French celebrities (actors, singers, writers…), song lyrics, English-French translation exercises, and analysis of spoken French.

  • Week 1: Listening Comprehension (Video) or Reading Comprehension (Book)
  • Week 2: Film Club
  • Week 3: Conversation on a current topic in France
  • Week 4: Speaking


I also review the basics of pronunciation: nasal vowels, the R, the E…

If you think your French is too theoretical or formal, this course is for you 🙂 From level A2 to B2.

When I arrived in France Alice helped me to be ready to talk to the French family I was about to visit. She was a well prepared French teacher, who adapted the lessons to my skills, interests and to the French that I needed for the family wedding which I was going to attend. She also gave me a friendly introduction to Lyon. I highly recommend that you take lessons with Alice.

The Alice Academy is an excellent way for those interested in getting to a higher level in reading comprehension and speaking. Alice is a wonderful teacher- very well organized and helps with specific weekly goals to support our efforts (sometimes, the internet can bombard you with vignettes and videos that just overwhelm you). Whereas I could not understand French podcasts and movies- she helps us break it down- and voila- the learning begins. We work with a small group to speak every week- and Alice ensures we all speak (as opposed to some "meet-ups" where levels are all over the board- and certain people dominate all the time). Alice is exceptional- and I am looking forward to the fall to continue my dream. I am not only learning the language- but the culture and customs and history- around France. Fun and Interesting!!

I would like to thank Alice Academy for their excellent technique they have to teach us French, Alice is an excellent teacher that has taken the time to prepare and present a perfect method to teach French according to your needs, Alice has designed her own material that she will send it to you with each lesson of group of them under the same subject. It is great because you do not have to buy any books, etc.The only thing you have to do is be on time for her lessons on line personalize class of 1 hour per session and follow her instructions for preparation for the next class. Alice, she is very professional and personable. I had several French teachers but never I have encounter nobody as fully commit it and identified with the needs of his/her students. My name is Alba Holleman and I feel very lucky to have Alice as my French teacher.

Grazie ad Alice ho raggiunto un ottimo livello di francese in pochissimo tempo. Il suo modo di insegnare è davvero professionale e coinvolgente, mi ha aiutato ad avere delle conversazioni in francese migliorando tutti gli aspetti della lingua, grammatica, vocabolario e pronuncia. Inoltre è stata sempre disponibile ad approfondire qualsiasi dubbio o domanda durante le lezioni con pazienza e professionalità. Alice parla benissimo italiano il che ha facilitato ancora di più il mio apprendimento qualora fosse necessaria una traduzione. Consiglio vivamente i suoi corsi per persone che vogliono migliorare/imparare il francese in modo rapido ed efficace. Grazie ancora Alice!

At the conclusion of 12 private lessons with Alice this past fall - mostly à distance - I couldn't wait to sign up for 12 more in the new year. Retired now and an English speaker, I first learned French as a teenager. Although I was able to speak the language reasonably fluently when I first met Alice, I realized my progress was hindered by many gaps in my knowledge and my old-fashioned usage. Alice is all she claims to be: a passionately interested and experienced teacher with a wealth of invaluable information at her fingertips that works incredibly well for remote lessons. Her calm and kindly presence empowered me to express myself on the subject at hand, to ask questions about anything I didn't understand, and to try out newly-learned words and phrases. Alice adapted each lesson and all assignments according to my current needs. She possesses considerable wisdom on how to master a language, and her belief in early-morning contact with it on a daily basis, constant repetition, and focusing on quality rather than quantity are all worth heeding . With Alice, these past few months have been exciting, motivating, joyful and fun. It has been thrilling to encounter so many revelations about this beautiful language. Je te remercie, Alice !

I would highly recommend French classes with Alice. First of all, they are online, so it is possible no matter where you live, then she is very flexible with the timing and the most important is she is an excellent teacher, with lots of experience, and nice personality. You certainly will improve your French with her. I am a busy mother of twins in my 50's, so I do not have time nor a great desire to learn a new language, at this stage of my life. But I need it because I live in France. I noticed that even with a once a week class, and doing the homework Alice gives, listening to her podcast, I am progressing a lot. I do not panic when I hear French anymore. I certainly will continue with Alice. For the ones who care what kind of French she uses, she is from Paris, so it is standard French. Thank you Alice!

Aprender francês com Alice tem sido uma experiência gratificante. Ela não só tem conhecimento no idioma, mas também tem uma habilidade única para tornar cada lição envolvente e agradável. Alice sempre se esforça para garantir que cada conceito seja claramente compreendido, usando uma variedade de métodos de ensino adaptados a diferentes estilos de aprendizagem. Seja através de exercícios interativos, insights culturais ou feedback personalizado, ela faz com que aprender francês seja acessível a todos. Ao criar um ambiente de aprendizagem favorável onde o aluno se sente confortável cometendo erros e fazendo perguntas, a confiança em falar e compreender francês cresce tremendamente. Professora super recomendada.

I highly recommend learning French with Alice:) Her online classes were always energetic and easy to understand. It was a small group so we were all able to practice our French very well.

Frequently asked questions

What is the profile of the students?

My students are generally expatriates in France or other French-speaking countries. They may be in a relationship with a French person or work for a French company.

There are also many Francophiles who do not live in France but want to travel and/or keep in touch with the French language and culture.

Some work, others are retired, and still others take care of their families (which is another form of work!).

This diversity is very enriching 🙂

You have two options to choose from:

  • 1 class per week: A1, A2+/B1 or B2 or Natural Pronunciation – €420
  • 2 lessons per week: A2+/B1 or B2 + Natural Pronunciation – €720 (save €120) 

Payment is made securely by SEPA bank transfer (tax-free in Europe), Revolut or Wise.

Speaking in a foreign language can be very stressful, I completely understand!

That’s why I limit groups to a maximum of 6 students.

You generally have the same fears and inhibitions, so small group classes are a “safe place” to speak French.

If you think you’ll only miss a few classes, the price remains affordable.

In addition, the classes are recorded: at the end of each class, I will send you the replay and the class slides.

If you have very variable schedules due to your work or studies, I advise you to take private lessons: you will be more flexible and you will be able to cancel and postpone the lessons (cancellation must be made at least 24 hours in advance).

Yes, group classes are 100% online via Zoom, unlike private lessons, which can also be held in Lyon, where I live.

However, online classes offer many advantages for students:

  • you learn French from home, from anywhere in the world, in a familiar environment
  • you save money (transport – parking – rental of a classroom – school registration)
  • you have direct contact with a native French teacher even if you do not live in France
  • you don’t waste time before or after class
  • you can study even if you are traveling
  • you learn at your own pace, consulting the course materials whenever you want and as many times as you want

For prospective students I don’t yet know, I always offer a 30-minute Zoom call.

This allows me to assess your level and ensure my classes are tailored to your needs.

You can then try a class with the group for free to make your decision.
