I joined this course as a complete beginner, but the content was far too fast and overwhelming. Too many new words and concepts are introduced in each lesson, making it very difficult to grasp the basics. The claim of going from beginner to B2 in four months is unrealistic for true beginners. I struggled at the initial level and had to hire a private tutor because my exam is only two months away. The course is very expensive (400+ CAD), and my refund request was denied due to a strict 3-day policy, despite genuine effort on my part. I would not recommend this course to beginners.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are genuinely sorry to hear that the course did not meet your expectations, and we appreciate the opportunity to clarify a few important points and offer support.

After carefully reviewing our records, we were unfortunately unable to locate an enrollment or refund request under the name provided in your review. To ensure we can properly assist you, we kindly invite you to contact us directly at info@frenchtransformation.com
so we can confirm your enrollment and review your situation together.

1) Course Duration & Learning Goals:
- Our French Transformation (6-month) program covers Levels 1 to 6, helping students progress from beginner to B1. To reach B2, we offer an additional 6-month program, for a total of 12 months of learning.
- For exam preparation, our TEF course for beginners is designed to help students reach CLB 7 within 12 months, not in a shorter time frame.

2) Pace of the Course & Learning Support:
We are sorry that the pace felt overwhelming for you. Learning a new language, especially while preparing for an exam, can indeed feel intense. To support our students, all registrants receive:-
- Full access to course materials and class recordings, allowing review at their own pace
- Homework after each class to reinforce learning
- Ongoing support via a WhatsApp group to ask questions and stay consistent

Language learning requires commitment, and we strive to provide the structure, resources, and guidance needed to help students succeed.

3) Refund Policy & Flexible Alternatives
While it is true that we do not offer refunds once registration is finalized, we do provide several flexible options to support our students:
- The ability to repeat a level if it feels too challenging
- The option to pause classes for up to 6 months to allow time for review
- In exceptional cases, the possibility to convert course credit into private classes

These options are always communicated and handled via email. Because we limit class sizes to ensure quality instruction, registrations are final.

For students seeking more flexibility, we also offer month-to-month enrollment, multiple payment plans. For example, with payment in full, our online 12-month program comes to approximately $330 CAD per month, making it a competitive option for long-term learning.

It is the best way to learn a language, with a great tutor who guides you step by step. Mai is the best instructor I have ever worked with. She helps you improve your weaknesses while also showing you what you are capable of achieving at the same time. She knows exactly what you will face in exams and throughout your journey of learning French in real life. Finally, she pass on this motivation,energy in you and keeps you on the right path, even when our personal lives become challenging!!!

My experience with L’Atelier French has been very positive. The environment is welcoming and supportive, which made learning feel less intimidating and easier to stay committed to. The lessons focus a lot on real-life French, not just grammar, and that made a big difference for me. My lecturer, Mai, is a huge part of this experience. She is patient, attentive, and genuinely cares about her students’ progress. She explains things clearly, corrects mistakes kindly, and encourages us to keep trying. After almost three months learning with her, I feel more confident writing in French, and I’m gradually becoming more comfortable expressing myself. I would definitely recommend L’Atelier French to anyone looking for a serious but friendly place to learn French, especially with teachers like Mai.

Fantastic Tutor Merci beaucoup! Maiwen is an excellent French teacher. Her classes are clear, well-paced, and easy to follow, and she has a way of explaining concepts that makes them feel natural. Petit à petit, j’ai gagné plus de confiance en parlant et en comprenant le français. She creates a comfortable learning space and is genuinely invested in her students’ progress. Je recommande vraiment ses leçons, elles ont fait une grande différence pour moi.

I took classes from Level 1 to Level 6, and it was truly a wonderful experience. My teacher throughout the entire program was Maï, who is incredibly friendly, kind, and dedicated. Spending six months learning with her was amazing as she is genuinely interested in each student, always caring, patient, and encouraging. I started from zero, and now I’m able to communicate my ideas in French, which is a huge milestone for me. Our group was always fun and cheerful, and the classes were engaging, dynamic, and well structured. I’m planning to come back next year to continue studying with Maï in preparation for the TEF exam, and I’m very enthusiastic about it. If I could suggest one improvement, it would be to extend the lessons to two hours instead of 90 minutes, as they often felt too short given the amount of material, questions, and interactive activities covered. Highly recommended! 🙌🏻❤️

For anyone looking to learn enough French to give the TEF within a year, I cannot recommend Daria enough. Her dedication to seeing her students succeed and humorous manner kept our class engaged throughout. Time flies in Daria's class when you’re having fun!

I’ve only had amazing experiences here! I have taken classes with both Maï and Delphine and they are both fantastic! The TEF preparation courses are very well organized and Maï really knows how to help us individually and as a group to improve any areas that need practice. She encourages us to speak French everyday and will correct any mistakes with patience and care. Delphi has also been amazing for my TEF preparation and overall French learning experience since she curates every class for my needs while keeping it super interesting!

I have been taking Learn French in Vancouver's Level 1 - Level 6 group classes with Mai as the French Instructor, and I can confidently say that it has been such a great experience learning French here! The location of the school is quite convenient, since it is located near Waterfront station and some bus stops. The inside of the building is nice as well, although I wish there are more rooms with bigger sizes to accommodate bigger class sizes. My instructor Mai is very enthusiastic and very helpful! She is patient and empathetic towards her students and I really appreciate that! :) The only other critique I have is the price of the course. I do wish it could be a tad bit cheaper for the amount of classes per week and class duration (which is twice a week, and 90 minutes per class). But with the quality of learning here, I think it makes up for it if you can afford it. All in all, I recommend learning French here, either if you are planning to learn French for TEF, or for general foundations of the French language!

I’m taking the TEF preparation course here, and it’s been a really good experience. I took the TEF before, but I didn’t feel fully prepared at that time. Maï, my instructor, has really helped me understand the test and focus on the areas I need to improve, especially my expression orale et écrite. I feel more confident now, and I’ll take the TEF again in a couple of months. This time I feel much more ready thanks to her and the school. 100% recommended!

For me Maï is both a cool and excellent French instructor who uses an effective pedagogy, the student-centered approach mixed with personalized teaching. In contrast with my previous French classes with another French institution, she gives more focus beyond our usual lectures, more on what we need to improve on the most. If she knows you need to improve your speaking, she does not hesitate to call you during recitations to read or speak out. You can't hide! haha! Even if the class time is shorter in Learn French in Vancouver compared to my previous French school, Maï is able to efficiently dedicate time to practical speaking and listening exercises, not just theory. So far I'm liking this skills-based method and with Maï's targeted practices using actual TEF questions. I believe this kind of technique ensures us to be well-prepared not only for TEF exam, but also for real-world interaction. Thank you Learn French in Vancouver especially to Maï!
