Many students, whether because they are brushing up semi-forgotten skills or because they feel safer
listening than talking, tend not make the most out of their opportunities to engage in French
conversation or participate in a discussion when abroad or in a group,
even when their French is really very good. Why?

Some time ago I decided to set up a series of sessions aimed at getting people together to overcome their
natural reticence at speaking in front of a group and join forces with other learners to share experiences of
French life and learning the language, whilst learning the kind of phraseology and practising the listening and
speaking skills that make piping up in French less of a 'butterflies in the stomach' experience!
