Learn French 
the
natural way

No textbooks, no grammar drills. 
Just real French, made understandable.

French isn’t something you memorize. It’s something you absorb, little by little, through exposure, until it starts to feel familiar and natural.

That’s how we learn our first language. And that’s how we can learn another one.

Real language, 
made comprehensible

You learn from real French. No artificial dialogues. No isolated word lists.
The content is adapted and supported to remain understandable through context and explanations.

Understanding before speaking

​Instead of forcing output, the focus is on comprehension. With enough exposure, you start recognising patterns. Things begin to sound right. Speaking develops naturally when you’re ready.

Guidance
without pressure

Learning is structured and supported, but never rushed. No comparison. No deadlines. No pressure to perform. You follow your own rhythm, with clear direction instead of constant correction.

Salut, c'est Elsa ðŸ‘‹

I was born and raised in France. A few years ago, I began teaching French to my husband so he could understand everyday conversations with my friends and family. That experience completely changed how I see language learning.

​

I realised that languages aren't learned by memorising rules, but by understanding real language in context, again and again, until it starts to feel natural.

 

This is what led me to create the Piece of French YouTube channel in 2019 and, later, my courses. I help learners understand real, spoken French through content that's clear, meaningful, and pressure-free, so confidence can grow naturally over time.
