Performance French coaching in Connecticut
We're not just another "legacy school". We're a no-nonsense, progress first, forward-thinking French coaching service that enables adult learners master French by means of the highest level of bilingualism available.

Hi, I'm Chris. The owner of OuiCommunicate LLC.
Connecticut is home to one of the only true bilingual French coaching services for adults in the United States.
This is where you'll find Personal French coaching that even the big cities can't rival.
Small State - Big Potential
At OuiCommunicate, we coach adult learners from all over the United States and Europe.
We’re one of the only – if not the only – purely bilingual French coaches in the whole of the United States. We mean by this a coach who is as much a native speaker of English as of French and who can coach you according to your first language for best results.
What are the odds that little Connecticut shelter such a unique service? Sounds unlikely.
This is your chance to discover that we have something that even the big cities like New York or Los Angeles can’t match or rival. There is nothing remotely modest about these French classes!
Chris is a European expat who grew up speaking French as a native. He absorbed the French language and culture since his earliest childhood while doing the exact same for English.
A true oddity in the world of language coaching, he holds a wealth of experience in private coaching as well as a Masters in Linguistics and Literature, a Post Graduate Degree in Education, and is the builder of ouicommunicate.com which counts over 30 hours of French instruction videos and over 900 pages of PDF exercises.
He has the State endorsement to teach English in CT high schools and French (in the coming weeks). His relentless reflection on language learning has led to a unique method to acquire French as an adult.
Could this be the new you?
The lady in this video is originally from NY and wished for us to help prepare her move to France.
Today, she is fluent and happily lives in France where she meets new people and uses French daily.
This could be the “new you” – a speaker of French who is fluid and confident.
Where we fit in the CT language school landscape
Not all language schools were built equally.
While some might be “better” than others according to personal taste, the true difference is in the purpose they each serve.
- There are language schools for the casual learner. (hobby classes)
- There are language schools for young learners
- There are language schools that prepare us for official tests (DELF)
- There are language schools that focus on group classes and that include cultural elements (French food or history)
According to your purpose, it is important to know that all schools have their merits and strengths. But not all can accommodate all needs.
OuiCommunicate LLC was specifically founded as a performance coaching service for adults.
Our target customer is the learner who wishes to acquire French with a purpose. We offer a full program with a starting point and end point towards French fluency.
On this website, you will find a full French program comprised of videos and worksheets. It was built under a bilingual angle to enhance clarity and understanding.
Students can learn French round the clock by means of instructional videos that contain the core skills they will need.
We propose a “no fluff” approach to French. No games, no French stereotypes and no time wasted. Only results and an “A to Z” plan on how to claim French as a new skill.
A new and more targeted way of learning French
“When will I know that I know French?”
Our answer: when you’ve finished our program and passed all the personal assessments with Chris.
Their answer: the majority of schools or online apps were not built with a finishing line in mind. Schools lock students in imaginary “levels” while apps just go on eternally.
Contrary to the vast majority of schools, we’ve dedicated time to reflect on teaching traditions and had the courage to speak out against ineffective methods.
- We said before anyone else that hour-long classes are mostly wasted.
- We said that a French teacher who is not a native of English will miss many of your mistakes.
- We challenged the traditional role of the tutor and gave a more active role to the learner.
- We said that language levels benefit schools’ sales and found no relevance in reality.
Your French classes in Connecticut can (and should be) of all types to suit different needs.
What OuiCommunicate does differently is place you on an active path towards French.
We don’t see a class as something to be sustained. Nor are they the place where you come to learn French.
Our French classes are 20 minutes in length and only serve to fine-tune your learning. You learn in the background (at home) and show up when you are ready to discuss your progress.
We are constantly pushing forward and always following the goal of covering all the necessary parts of French.
We offer full online support for questions and act as personal coaches who guide you through French according to your level.
Instead of “being in the process of learning French”, our eye is rather on “having learned French” and doing everything we can to make it happen.
