What might a lesson look like?
Build French fluency through a real task.
Make a polite request in a shop, then adapt it to a client email.
Speak, receive focused feedback and try again with fewer prompts. We can examine pronunciation, intonation, flow, grammar, syntax and register, selecting the most useful priorities for this learner.
