A small-group French conversation programme

Fluent & Fearless

Six weeks to go from knowing French to actually speaking it — confidently, naturally, without freezing.

6 weeks · 1.5 hrs/week · Groups of 4–5 · Live online

Founding member price: $197 USD

You've studied vocabulary. You've watched French films. You can read menus, understand song lyrics, maybe even follow a podcast.

But the moment someone asks you a question in French — your mind goes blank.

The problem isn't your French.

It's that you've never had a safe, structured space to actually use it. To stumble, recover, and keep going. That's exactly what Fluent & Fearless is built for.

IS THIS FOR YOU?

This program is for you if...

  • You're at an intermediate level (B1/B2) and you want to start speaking with real confidence

  • You freeze or go blank when put on the spot in French

  • You've studied French for years but rarely get to actually practise speaking

  • You want to connect with French culture, travel, or French speakers in your life

  • You thrive in a warm, intimate group — not a 30-person classroom

Judgment

Mistakes are part of the method. Vraiment.

Bonjour, je suis Marie.

I'm a native French speaker and the founder of Bonjour Brilliant.

For years I've helped French learners go

from frustrated to confident speakers — through YouTube,

personnalized coaching, and now live programmes like this one.

I created Fluent & Fearless because

I know that speaking confidence doesn't come from more grammar drills.

It comes from real conversations, in a safe space, with people who are

on the same journey as you.

I can't wait to speak French with you.

Questions fréquentes

What level do I need to join?

Intermediate level (B1/B2). You should be able to understand spoken French and form sentences, even if speaking feels uncomfortable. This programme is not for complete beginners.

What if I miss a session?

Each session is recorded and available to watch for 7 days. That said, the magic of this programme is in the live conversation — we encourage you to attend every week.

Will sessions be entirely in French?

Yes — and that's intentional. I guide you through any difficulty and you'll quickly find your confidence. A little discomfort at the start is part of the process.

When does it start?

It starts on th 7th of April. Simply check availability and book your spot directly using the link below — spaces fill up fast and each cohort is strictly limited to 5 students.

How is this different from a regular French class?

Every session is built around real communicative activities — speaking tasks, conversation gaps, and interactive exercises designed to get you talking from minute one. There are no grammar lectures, no drills, no waiting for your turn. The focus is always on confident communication over perfect grammar. You'll leave every session having actually spoken French — a lot.

Your French is ready. Are you?

Six weeks from now, you could be the person who speaks French with ease — not perfectly, but fearlessly. That's the difference.
