Do you want to understand Spoken French?
Yes?? Then you are in the right place.
Does this sound like you?
When you hear French people talking, you feel overwhelmed.
They talk too fast.
You can't understand a word of it.
Well, I am going to give you the Keys to Spoken French.
I am going to unlock the mysteries of spoken French, so you can finally understand it.
Bonjour ! My name is Catherine.
Welcome to The Keys to Spoken French! I am so thrilled to welcome you to my new course!
I heard you say:
“I can understand written French, but I can’t understand spoken French.” And “French people speak too fast.”
That’s why I created this step-by-step course to help you understand the French spoken today.
I will give you all the keys to spoken French. In module 1, we’ll go over the liaisons, the ones we do, the ones we don’t, and in module 2, we’ll talk about the dropping of the E.
These 2 modules are also going to help you sound more French when YOU speak.
In modules 3 and 4 I’m going to go over informal French — not necessarily for you to talk that way, but for your understanding of spoken French.
I’ll go over the disappearance of letters, even words, the contraction of words, abbreviations and different types of slang.
When you complete this course, spoken French will no longer be a mystery to you.
You'll be able to understand the dialogues in your favorite Netflix series or the chitchat of your Parisian taxi driver.
I can’t wait to see you inside!
In this course, The Keys to Spoken French, I will help you master your understanding of spoken French!
If you feel lost when listening to spoken French, it's not just because it's fast.
It is also because of the shortcuts and liberties we take with grammar.
Don't worry! I'll address them step by step in simple terms in this course.
You can listen to French without feeling overwhelmed in a matter of days, not years.
Meet the Instructor
Bonjour, my name is Catherine, and I am the founder of Speak like a Parisian, a company that teaches French through tutoring and educational materials.
I have 6000+ hours of experience teaching French. I am a French native teacher from Paris.
I was born, grew up, and received all of my education in the Paris region.
Then I lived in Paris for 20 years before moving to the United States with my family.
I am familiar with the frustration and discouragement that come with learning a new language.
I went through all of this when I came to the US without speaking English.
I learned the hard way without guidance -- it took forever -- and I don't want you to have to go through the same thing. :))
Let me help you sound more French when you talk and master your understanding of spoken French. 🇫🇷
Here are a few testimonials from my students:
“I'd been struggling to learn French on my own for many years. But after working with Catherine, things finally started to make sense. I've absolutely loved working with her and highly recommend her to anyone who wants to take their French to the next level.” – J. W.
"Bonsoir Catherine. I am here in Paris and having a great time! You would be proud on how much I'm practicing my French thanks to your teachings 😊. When I get back let's start the lessons again." -- S. C.

"I have tutored with Cat in the past and I can tell you she is amazing! I highly recommend her for anyone wanting to learn French or practice their skills. The lessons she chooses are engaging and helpful. I will be practicing with her again in the future." -- R.N.
“Madame Cat has been a great tutor over the past few years. She has helped me understand topics in my classes, has helped me improve my French speaking and writing, and goes in depth into new topics to stay ahead of the curve.” -- H. B.
"She is so relieved to actually learn French - she said she was never learning it before working with you." -- Mother of M. A.
Feel confident understanding spoken French and sound more French when you talk in the process!
Imagine the pride of engaging in small talk with your waiter or having a conversation with your taxi driver.
Imagine the joy of finally grasping the meaning of your favorite French song or that part of dialogue you never got.
It's possible with The Keys to Spoken French!
You'll be aware of the liaisons, you'll identify the words hidden in the French shortcuts and you'll be able to recognize the abbreviations.
