Fall 2026 Adult "Chez soi" French course

Sale Price: $449.00 Original Price: $499.00

Join us for the fall season of this 2026-2027 year’s series: Find your /vwa/ (voix, voie) en français.

This current season’s topic is Chez soi /ʃe swa/. Students will practice talking about themselves, whether at the surface level or deeper.

How you express yourself will depend on your language level:

  • Are you at a more foundational/basic level in French? You can still learn to find and create meaning. Join level A.

  • Or are you ready to add more complex structures, vocabulary and flourishes, working towards something meaningful? Join level B.

  • Ready to deepen your practice, taking turns leading and encouraging each other, letting go of structure and find joy in conversation and interaction? Join level C.

One hour weekly on Zoom for 8 weeks beginning the week of September 21. The one-hour class will be sometime between 9:00am and 1:00pm Eastern depending on each cohort’s availability.

  • Level A Fondations/Foundations: Tuesday

  • Level B Floraison/Flourishes: Wednesday

  • Level C Flânerie: Thursday

The live zoom will have opportunities for structured practice side by side as well, time together, and small group interaction.

Recordings and extra activities will be provided so you can practice on your own and with others in your life.

You will have access to our Padlet classroom and Circle community where you can continue to connect and grow.

Each 8-week session is designed to bring my adult students together and build the common skills that are relevant to them at this time. It is an opportunity to see what they have in common, grow from each other’s questions, and practice with members of the Minimax Maison community. It unites speakers of varying backgrounds to create a common foundation where they can see, hear and feel the language — how it’s both pronounced and written. It is the perfect introduction, refresh, or deepening of your expression in a curated space to foster your growth and build community connections.

Payment methods:

Pay in full now and receive $50 OFF: $449

Prefer to pay little by little? Put down a $149 deposit now. And then 2 $150 payments in September and October.

Interested in practicing with me more than once a week and immerse yourself regularly?

You have 2 options:

  • Join multiple levels: Classes will build on each other over the course of the week. Level B will be great structured practice for Level C conversation. And even if you wanted to refresh your foundations and do level A for extra support, you could do all 3, building a consistent, regular practice.

  • Most of my students do one-on-one lessons where we tailor the practice to their desires and needs. Happy to talk about what that might look like for you.

Ready to jump in and commit to the full year?

Ask me about what I have in mind for the upcoming sessions this year. I have a sequence in mind and it will develop further with your help.

Dans le passé:

The 2025-2026 French Foundations Refresh had a seasonal arc:

  • fall 2025: Practical pronunciation practice with the IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet)

  • winter 2026: From pieces to phrases through children’s picture books

  • spring 2026: Prêt.e à Partir - Ready to leave! travel edition

The new 2026-2027 year arc (Find your /vwa/ (voix, voie) en français) has grown out of a growing student base and their common and different needs.
