The group's focus is on culture and traditions in French-speaking countries.
During COVID-19 precautions, Zoom sessions focus on light conversation using casual French everyday phrases. If your French is beginner's level or a bit rusty, this is the perfect time to join us! We will speak slowly and translate as we go.
