French 1: Beginner is designed for true beginners — no prior French required. Each week combines spoken practice with the grammar, vocabulary, and writing skills you need to build a real foundation in the language, not just a few memorized phrases.
Using Alter Ego+ A1, a leading French-language method built for adult learners, the course follows a clear, structured progression while staying lively and conversational. By the end, students can introduce themselves, handle everyday situations (shopping, directions, routines), and read and write simple French with confidence.
