Learn French with Miss Marie And Co

😅Can you guess the French sentence? We played French charades in class, but with a twist.

This is one of our favourite ways to practise French in class.
Instead of simply memorising vocabulary, students have to understand a full sentence, act it out, listen to each other, make guesses, and try again.
It’s funny.
It’s interactive.
And yes, sometimes the guesses go in a very unexpected direction.
But that’s exactly why it works.
Because when you laugh, move, repeat, and connect the sentence to a real moment, the French stays with you.
French doesn’t have to feel scary.
Sometimes, it just starts with a little game.

🇫🇷 Which expression was new to you?

They all introduce yourself, but they don’t all sound quite the same.

That’s one of the things I love about languages.

Learning French isn’t just about learning words. It’s about understanding people, situations, and the little cultural nuances that make conversations feel natural.

And honestly, that’s often what helps learners move from “textbook French” to feeling comfortable in real conversations.

So tell me, which one are you most likely to use? 👇

…If you’ve never joined one of our 🇫🇷French Walk & Talks before, you might be wondering what actually happens.

We explore different corners of Bristol while chatting in French.
Some people come to practise the language.
Some come for the walk.
Some come because they’ve recently moved to Bristol and would like to meet new people.
Most come for a bit of all three😄.
That’s what makes our French Walk & Talks such a lovely part of our community.
The French is rarely perfect, and that’s completely fine.
What matters is showing up, giving it a go, and enjoying the process.
If that sounds like your sort of thing, we’d love to see you there.
