My approach

Learning a language should feel like an adventure, not a lonely struggle.

Let's be honest: You've probably tried learning French before. Maybe you downloaded an app full of good intentions. Maybe you bought an online course that's still sitting in your browser bookmarks.

And then... life happened. Work got busy. The lessons felt repetitive. You got stuck on something and there was no one to ask. Slowly, quietly, you stopped logging in.

It's not your fault. Research consistently shows that self-paced online language courses have notoriously low completion rates: most learners abandon them within weeks. A 2015 study in the International Review of Research in Open and Distributed Learning found that completion rates for self-paced online courses typically range from 5-15%.

In contrast, courses with live instructor support see dramatically higher completion and success rates. Research also shows that instructor presence significantly improves both completion rates and learning outcomes (Jaggars & Xu, 2016). You can read the article here 

Why? Because learning is social. We need accountability, encouragement, and someone to turn to when we are stuck. Humans are not designed to learn in isolation, we learn better together, with guidance, with someone who believes in us even when we lack confidence. And because, you are learning a language to speak. To speak with real people, in real life.
