Cette newsletter grandit 🌱

Our newsletter is growing up

tl;dr: I’m adding a paid subscription plan!

This newsletter was always meant to be a little side-project where I pursued the passion for teaching French while still having a “real job”, but after so much positive feedback, and continued prodding from readers and friends, I’ve decided to double-down and turn this into a real thing 🎉

Starting in two weeks, only paid subscribers will get the all the extras I’ve added to the dialogues. In addition, paid subscriber questions will be prioritised, plus they’ll get a few other goodies (see below). Free subscribers will still receive x2 dialogues a week, but without the bells and whistles.

When I launched this newsletter six months ago, I had no real plan. I knew that I wanted teaching French to be a part of my life, I knew that the colloquial dialogues I made students could help others, and I knew that newsletters had become popular. In any case, this newsletter was always meant to be a fun little side-project.

But while I wasn’t looking, this has turned into a real thing. And the feedback you’ve been sharing with me has been immensely gratifying 🥰

“Signing up was the best thing I've done this year! Amélie makes consolidating the French we use everyday such FUN!! I love her breezy, unstuffy approach.”

“[French with Amélie] makes me feel like I can do this.” 🥲

“The newsletter is so well crafted.. the content is accessible and your passion for teaching shines through the newsletter. Keep it up because you are appreciated!”

“Real, engaging and actually helps me learn/recall my French”

“I get as close to real French as possible”

I’ve been deliberating this for a while, and I’ve finally come to the conclusion that I should give this a real shot.

What’s changing?

Free readers you will continue to get this same newsletter, but only with the text and the translation. If that's enough for you, by all means, stick with it!

Paid subscribers will receive the premium French with Amélie experience 💎

Why should I subscribe?

To supercharge your French progress.

Whatever style of intermediate French students you are:

1. ⏳ Your time is valuable. So my emails are rich as a croissant! Giving your brain everything it needs to make steady consistent progress. And ultimately to become fluent.

2. 🏔️ You don’t want to plateau. My lively, up-to-date, realistic dialogues (always adapted to your level) are the perfect resource to insure consistent progress. As an email newsletter they help you make learning French a habit. You can learn at your own pace, but in a sustainable way.

It’s like having a personal tutor, but for real cheap.

A sampling of recent dialogues:

Quels sont quelques-uns de tes objectifs à court terme ? 🎯✅

À qui tu admires dans la vie ? 🤩

Où t’es allée en vacances la dernière fois ? 🏖️

What will it cost?

$80 per year, or $8/month.

That’s the cost of 1 (very cheap) language lesson, only you get 8 language lessons! C'est une bonne affaire, hein ? My dialogues should easily pay for themselves with the progress you see in your French. If they don’t, you can cancel anytime.

For those of you that can’t afford it, I’ve got a deal for you. Just email me and let me know what’s up. We’ll work something out. I don’t want the price to be a financial burden on anyone.

When will this change happen?

The first subscriber-only post will begin in two weeks! September 28th.

That means 3 more free dialogues with all the extras and add-ons, and then subscriber-only content begins. If you want to make sure that you don’t miss anything, subscribe now and you’ll automatically get the premium content.

you guys flocking to subscribe ?

If you’ve found value in this newsletter, or just want to support the work I’m doing, consider subscribing. It would mean a lot to me. 🙏

Sincerely,

Amélie 💜
