Fantastic experience: I just finished up French Survival 2 and 3 and am looking forward to starting Level 4. After retiring, I'm taking French classes to accomplish my lifelong goal of being able to speak French fluently. The online classes provided by the French Academy have been excellent, with the instructors truly caring that we are learning the language. My most recent teacher, Sabrina, was encouraging, supportive, and also really wanted to make sure we understood concepts before moving to the next lesson. It was a small class which gave each of us plenty of time to practice speaking. I highly recommend the courses offered and am looking forward to my continued learning!
Dear Michele, thank you so much for this thoughtful review, it truly means a lot to us.
We love hearing about your journey, especially with such a meaningful goal after retirement. That kind of motivation makes a big difference, and it’s wonderful to see you moving from Survival 2 to 3 and now continuing to Level 4!
I’ll make sure to share your kind words with Sabrina, she will really appreciate it. She puts a lot of care into making sure each student feels supported and progresses with confidence.
As a small school, reviews like yours genuinely help us grow and continue offering these small, personalized classes, so thank you again for taking the time to write it.
Warmly,
Natacha
Fantastic experience: Really enjoyed the instructor and the class -- it was the right level of challenging for me (an extremely rusty French student) and I felt I grew as the class went on.
Dear Matthew, merci beaucoup for your lovely review!
We’re so happy to hear that the class felt like the right level of challenge and that you could feel your French improving along the way. Your feedback means a lot to us. As a small school, it’s wonderful to know our approach is helping students rediscover their confidence in French.
Thank you

Fantastic experience: I’ve been very happy with my lessons with French Academy so far. I’ve had both in-person lessons in Alexandria and private lessons online, and the quality is excellent. The classes are small, and while they do go quickly, the teachers spend a lot of time making sure you understand the material. I feel they do a great job with beginners, especially with various skill levels and previous understanding of French. I can highly recommend teachers Magali and Karyne, and I can’t speak highly enough about my tutor Maja. I’ve now switched from an in-person class to an online class due to my schedule and will update my review after I’ve finished, but I’m sure it will also be excellent. I’d also like to put a plug in for the owners and staff of the school. I found them to be highly flexible and accommodating, working with unique circumstances and schedules. It’s been very appreciated.
Dear Kimberly, Thank you so much for your kind words! As a very small school, it truly means a lot to us to know that our hard work and flexibility are appreciated. We do our best to make every student feel supported, and I’m so glad you’ve had a great experience with Magali, Karyne, and Maja. Your feedback encourages us to keep going and means the world to me.
With gratitude,
Natacha
