FAQ
Your questions, answered
I'm an adult beginner, is it too late to learn French?
Absolutely not. Adult learners often progress faster than children because they understand context and patterns quickly.

Mostly English at first, with French introduced progressively. By B1, lessons naturally shift to French.

With consistent weekly lessons, most beginners reach A2 (basic conversation) in 3–6 months.
Do I need to buy any textbook or material?
No. Camille provides everything you need.
