A short, focused reset for your French

This A1 French CrashCourse is for people who want to stop feeling lost and start speaking with more confidence.

In five focused hours, you'll learn how French actually works: the sounds, the structure, and the sentences that matter in real life. Everything is taught step by step, in a small group, so you can ask questions, practice speaking, and feel supported throughout.

This isn't about learning everything. It's about building solid foundations that finally make sense, and leaving with a clear path forward, including a 4-Week Confidence & Consistency Builder to help you keep going without losing momentum.

How the CrashCourse works

4 live sessions across 4 consecutive days. Each builds on the last. You always know where you are and where you're going.

1
Day 1

Sounds & First Words

Get comfortable with French sounds and pronunciation: the part most courses skip. You'll start speaking from the very first minute. By the end of session one, you'll already be forming real sentences out loud.

2
Day 2

Building Sentences

Discover how French structure actually works, clearly and without overwhelm. You'll understand the patterns that make everything else click. Grammar that finally makes sense, because it's taught the way your brain absorbs it.

3
Day 3

Everyday Life in French

Cafés, introductions, daily conversations: the French you actually need. We practise real situations together in a relaxed, warm environment where making mistakes is part of the process.

4
Day 4

Putting It All Together

Consolidate everything you've learned. Leave with solid foundations, real confidence, and a clear plan for what to do next, so French stays in your life, not just in your notes.

"Taking lessons with Kenia is a real pleasure — it's honestly become one of the highlights of my week. Starting from absolutely zero, after just 5 lessons I can already see and hear the language. Kenia is extremely patient and very skilled at explaining things. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to learn French!"

Bonjour, moi c'est Kenia.

I'm a French tutor with 8+ years of experience helping people speak French with clarity and confidence. I've worked with learners from complete beginners to advanced levels, always focusing on what actually matters: speaking, understanding, and feeling comfortable in real conversations, not just memorising rules.

My teaching style is structured and intentional, but always kept light, fun, and engaging. You'll start speaking from the very first session.

Over time, many of my students and I have built real connections beyond lessons. I've met some of them in person, shown them around Paris, and shared everyday moments in French together. For me, learning a language is about creating experiences, not just studying it.

Alongside teaching, I work as an actress across theatre and film, and it strongly shapes how I teach: clear pronunciation, natural rhythm, and real-life expression.

Frequently asked questions

Is 5 hours really enough to learn French?
5 hours won't make you fluent, but it will give you solid foundations that finally make sense, real speaking confidence, and a clear path forward. Most students leave knowing far more than they expected. The 4-Week Builder keeps the momentum going after the sessions end.
Is this right for complete beginners?
Yes, 100%. This course is designed specifically for complete beginners and A1 learners. No prior knowledge required. Come exactly as you are.
What makes this different from apps or traditional classes?
Apps give you words without context. Traditional classes often move too fast or too slow. This CrashCourse is live, small-group, structured and adapted to your group's pace, with real speaking practice from day one and a follow-up plan so you don't fall off track.
Will I have to speak during the course?
Yes, speaking is at the heart of every session. But the environment is relaxed, supportive and beginner-friendly. Nobody is judged for mistakes: that's how you learn. You'll never be put on the spot in an uncomfortable way.
Can I join with a friend, partner, or colleague?
Absolutely, and it's a great way to learn together. Just mention it when you sign up and I'll make sure you're in the same group.
What happens after the CrashCourse?
You'll receive the 4-Week Confidence & Consistency Builder: a self-guided plan with daily micro-tasks, weekly real-world adventures, WhatsApp group support, and access to a companion app for independent practice. You won't be left wondering what to do next.
What if I miss a session?
Get in touch and we'll work something out. The sessions are designed to build on each other, so attendance matters, but life happens. Email me at kenialabpro@gmail.com and we'll figure it out together.
