French for travel, work and life abroad, from your first bonjour to C2.

A complete course for adults, taught in animated videos by Madame Colette. Six levels take you from ordering a coffee to running a meeting in French, with DELF and DALF practice on the way.

Start freeTry the first lessonFind your level

Free during launch. Everything included, no card needed.

Your turnThe video stops here and waits for you.

In a bakery, you first say…

Every unit runs the same four stops

Watch it, practise it, read it, then prove it. Pass the unit's Bilan and the next station opens.

  1. Watch the video

    Madame Colette explains, Gaston gets it wrong so you don't have to, and the video stops for your answer. Captions on or off, and chapters to go back over.

    190 videos, more than 10 hours in all, with 581 questions that wait for you.

    Unit 1, « Bonjour ! »: 5 videos

    1. 1SaluerSay hello, goodbye, please and thank you.3 min
    2. 2Se présenterGive your name and ask someone theirs.3 min
    3. 3Ça va ?Ask how someone is and answer.3 min

  2. Do the lesson

    12 kinds of exercise: listening, speaking, building sentences, typing with an accent keyboard, sorting, and real documents like this one.

    New words join your spaced review, and anything you get wrong comes back before the lesson ends.

    From the A1 lesson « L'heure officielle et familière ». Read the timetable, then answer.

  3. Read a book or a story

    Each unit ends with a reading picked for what you know by then: illustrated books with Zoé, her little brother Léo and Gaston to begin with, graded stories set across the French-speaking world later on.

    Tap any word for its meaning, hear the page read aloud, and keep the words you want for review.

    BOULANGERIE

    .

    Tap a word. Grey letters are silent.

    From « Le croissant de Gaston », a picture book with Zoé, Léo and Gaston.

  4. Pass the Bilan

    A 20-question test drawn from the unit's lessons and its reading. Get 14 right and the next unit opens.

    Already know the material? Take the Bilan straight away and move on.

What's in it

190 video lessons
more than 10 hours, with 581 questions to answer
190 lessons
in 38 units, each closed by a Bilan
51 books and stories
25 picture books and 26 graded stories
6 mock exams
in the DELF and DALF format, A1 to C2, with course certificates
10 games
plus 4 pronunciation tools, dictation and a writing coach

How it's checked

  • Built on the CEFR. Every unit states what you'll be able to do by the end of it.
  • Every spoken line is checked. Each line in the videos is played back through speech recognition and compared with the script. Anything it can't confirm is flagged to be checked by ear.
  • Every lesson is tested. Automated checks run over all 190 lessons for answers missing from their options, duplicate choices, and words a lesson lists but never teaches.

Practice that answers back

Around the lessons: write and get corrected, record yourself, and review at the right moment.

Writing coach

Pick one of 32 writing tasks, write, and get your text back corrected, with every mistake explained in plain English.

Example. The A2 task « Un e-mail à votre propriétaire », with the kind of feedback the coach gives. Written for this page, not a live correction.

Madame, Je vous écris parce que le chauffage depuis lundi. Il fait très froid dans l'appartement et est malade. J'ai appelé l'agence mais . Pourriez-vous envoyer un technicien cette semaine ? Je suis le matin. Cordialement, Sam

Style

ne marche pas becomes ne fonctionne pas

Marcher is fine with friends; in a letter to a landlord, fonctionner sounds more formal.

What went well
A clear email: greeting, problem, request, sign-off. A polite request with « Pourriez-vous… ».
Work on next
Practise negatives with personne, rien and jamais: in writing they always need ne.

Pronunciation lab

  • Paires minimalesHear tu or tout, vent or vin, and pick the one you heard. Then say it and see if the recogniser agrees.
  • ShadowingListen to a sentence from the course, record yourself saying it, then play the two back to back.
  • Les sons du françaisNine hard sounds, with a moving diagram of the lips, tongue and soft palate for each one.
  • LiaisonsSee where words join (les‿amis), where they slide together (elle‿arrive) and where they must never join.

Review, dictation and games

Words come back just before you'd forget them, your mistakes get a second go, and dictation trains your ear. When you want something lighter, 10 games use the words you've learned:

  • Métro Rush
  • Genre Express
  • Le Croissant
  • Le Boss des Verbes
  • Les Bulles
  • L'Oreille d'or
  • Les Paires
  • Mots croisés
  • Mots mêlés
  • Le petit bac

Exam prep built into the path

Every level has a full mock exam in the DELF or DALF format: listening, reading, writing and speaking, timed and marked. The B2, C1 and C2 lines each end with a unit on the exam itself.

  • DELF A1
  • DELF A2
  • DELF B1
  • DELF B2
  • DALF C1
  • DALF C2

Finish a level and print a course certificate. The exam material is original; only the format follows the real exam.

Questions, answered

What level can I start at?

Any. Complete beginners start at A1 with the first lesson. If you already know some French, the placement test (15 questions) opens every level below yours, and you can take any unit's Bilan early to skip ahead.

How long does it take to go from A1 to C2?

It depends on where you start, how often you study, and how much French you hear and speak outside the course. The CEFR describes what you can do, not how long it takes. For a sense of scale, the videos alone run to more than 10 hours, and every video comes with a lesson, plus a reading and a Bilan for each unit.

Is it really free? Will it stay free?

Yes: during launch everything is free, and there's no card to enter. Paid plans may come later. If they do, they'll be announced on this page first, and your account and progress stay yours either way.

Which devices does it work on?

Any recent browser on a phone, tablet or computer, with nothing to install. Sign in on each and your progress follows you. Speaking exercises need a microphone and a browser with speech recognition, such as Chrome, Edge or Safari.

Do I need to sign up?

Yes, a free account (email or Google) opens the course and keeps your progress. You can try the first lesson and the placement test first, without one; what you do there comes with you when you sign up.

Is there exam preparation?

Yes. Every level has a full mock exam in the DELF or DALF format, timed and marked across listening, reading, writing and speaking, and the B2, C1 and C2 lines each end with a unit on the exam. The material is original; only the format follows the real exam, which you sit at an approved centre.

Who makes French Ultimate?

It's an independent project. The lessons, videos, books and stories were written and drawn for it. Questions and feedback are welcome: write to opeoluwagiwa@gmail.com.
