Strong recommendation. I am a confident beginner and I totally suck at French. My goal Is to be able to ‘get by’ with my French. My Duo Lingo is my sudoku. I have had traumatic experiences learning French in Melbourne with three different teachers that did not work for me. Tears and anxiety just recalling them. Elsa and Nathalie are experienced, talented, and compassionate teachers. The people in the classes have the perfect balance of enthusiasm and fun. Not serious and stern, very focused on encouragement, fun, and inclusion. This is the French school you have been looking for ♥️🇫🇷 Less

Nathalie and her team create an environment where we are all encouraged to speak, to share and to be heard. Learning another language can be really challenging. The course structure is a beautiful blend of thorough and organised yet very creative. It certainly isn’t just sitting there each week, studying grammar. The approach is so creative and fun. We recently had a cooking class, and a movement class is coming up. There is something fun about learning while doing an activity. Each part of the program is creative and certainly not just ‘linear’ learning. Lots of practical exercises, too, ready for our next trip to France. E.g. navigating transport, restaurants, shopping, hotels and getting lost!We are always encouraged, as the team truly understands that confidence is the biggest challenge for many of us. Each week, I step out of my comfort zone yet am always supported and not corrected for every single mistake (which often knocks your confidence). As a result, I am learning so much. I couldn’t recommend Cosmopoli’ French Melbourne enough. Less

From the moment I started my level assessment conversation over the phone with Nathalie, I knew I had found the right French language school for me. She has a way of making her students feel comfortable and supported on their French language journey. I leave each class at Cosmopoli’ French feeling inspired and on a French “high”. Although I have studied French for a long time, what I lacked was the confidence to actually SPEAK French. As a student at Cosmopoli’ French, I feel like I am finally achieving my goal. The class sizes are small and intimate, meaning that everyone has the opportunity to speak and the course outline is engaging and innovative.I have spoken more French in the last 5 weeks of classes than I have in any other French course in the past. Merci Nathalie! Less

I started a Cosmopoli’French course earlier this year and have been very impressed with the support and caring nature of Nathalie, our teacher. The school focuses on learning French in a fun and interactive environment far from the traditional classroom situation. I would strongly recommend this style of learning to anyone who is serious about mastering the French language. Less

I’ve had a fantastic experience learning French at Cosmopoli’French! The classes are engaging and well-structured, making it easy to build confidence in speaking, listening, and writing.The teachers are passionate, patient, and truly dedicated to helping students succeed, and with the small class sizes the learning environment is supportive, which makes all the difference.If you’re looking for a high-quality French language school in Melbourne, I highly recommend Cosmopoli’French!

I’ve been taking French here for about a year, and have loved every moment of it. The classes go through a variety of topics such as food, sports, and travel to keep things engaging. There are also lots of opportunities to speak, and the welcoming environment makes it easy to practice without being afraid to make mistakes. My French has definitely improved here with the help of the wonderful teachers. I would recommend this course to anyone looking to learn French! Less

I feel so lucky to have found Cosmopoli French. I was keen to improve my French but didn’t expect the weekly classes to be so much fun. It feels like a real immersion into French life and culture where for 90 minutes a week you’re totally switched off from the outside world. Nathalie is amazingly patient and helpful. Our class have a lot of fun & I look forward to them every week. Less

I enjoyed my time at Cosmopolitan French. Nathalie is a wonderful teacher, who gives attention to everyone and has a patient and fun approach to learning French. I like the atmosphere of the class, where you don’t feel pressured and not afraid to make mistakes. The bonus of every semester is to attend a fun activity be it a theatre performance in French or le dîner at a French restaurant. Highly recommend signing up. Less

Cosmopoli' french lessons were enjoyable and very engaging. I loved Nathalie's classes so much and looked forward to all the opportunities of speaking French! Less

I've been going to Cosmo French for a year now and will definitely be returning next year!Nathalie is a really kind and supportive teacher, so it's not intimidating to try and speak. The classes are a good size and the topics are interesting.I've improved a lot as a result of Nathalie's teaching methods and can even move up a level as a result.Highly recommend for any level of student 😊 Less

Nathalie at Cosmopoli'French is a friendly, kind and very good teacher of French. She always patiently and clearly explains things to me. She helped in my preparation for the DELF B1. Less

A Truly Exceptional Learning Experience! I am beyond impressed with the quality of education and the supportive environment at Cosmopoli’ French . From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed by the dedicated staff and friendly atmosphere. The teachers are incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and passionate about helping students succeed. The curriculum is well-structured, with a perfect balance of grammar, conversation, and cultural immersion. I’ve made incredible progress in my French skills and feel much more confident in both writing and speaking. What sets Cosmopoli’ French apart is the genuine care they show for each student’s individual learning journey. They take the time to tailor lessons to meet specific needs and ensure every student feels heard and supported. The school also offers great extracurricular activities and events that allow students to engage with the language and culture in real-world settings. I highly recommend Cosmopoli’ French to anyone looking to learn French in a nurturing and dynamic environment. It’s been an absolutely fantastic experience, and I’m grateful for everything I’ve learned here. Less

I’ve been a part of the Cosmopoli’French community for 12 years and I couldn’t speak more highly of the experience. The teaching philosophy of founder Nathalie Margarite provides the basis for a rich and unique learning environment. Beyond grammar, you also learn about France as a country and its people. Lessons centre around music, movies, food, history, politics, culture and more - with the learning of the French language as the common theme throughout. Class sizes are small and all the teachers at Cosmolpoli’French that I have had the pleasure of working with are native French speakers who subscribe to Nathalies philosophy. They are patient, supportive and encouraging while gently pushing you to improve at every opportunity. Cosmoploi’French is a unique boutique language school which has organically grown its own community through a shared interest of France and the French language. If you are a lover of France with a desire to learn the language, I strongly recommend you try Cosmopoli’French Less

My experience of private lessons with Cosmopoli' French was amazing! I began in a group in-person class with Nathalie which was really constructive and helpful. However I decided that I wanted a more tailored and individualised program. Nathalie was very positive and enthusiastic, as well as being very supportive in both learning contexts. After I finished the term of group classes, I had weekly zoom lessons with Nathalie that were very much tailored to my interests and travel plans. I completed homework between sessions and Nathalie sent me audio recordings of key vocabulary and documentation of all sorts. What I wasn't expecting was for it to be quite so much fun! We often laughed during these lessons and I am planning to resume classes when I return from France later this year. I loved learning without a textbook! I can strongly recommend individual, online classes for those planning to travel. It's an efficient use of time, is very reasonably priced and I found that my learning was greatly enhanced, mostly because it was such a positive experience for me - and because it was specifically tailored to my individual requirements. I can't recommend it highly enough.10 stars!!! Less

One of the best French schools you can find in Melbourne!! The atmosphere in class is so motivating and inspiring that even an absolute beginner like me feels very comfortable in trying to speak French. Nathalie is extremely supportive and encouraging throughout the journey👍 I doubt you will be able to find anything better elsewhere!! Less

The best Beginners French class in Melbourne! It's well worth the money for what you're getting. The class is small which is ideal. The vibe is casual and fun. You learn so much in a short time. It's fast-paced and you'll do well especially if you're an independent learner and motivated..Nathalie is an amazing teacher. She's patient, friendly and encourages class participation all the time. I'm sad that it's almost finished. I will enrol in the next level as soon as I'm back from 🇫🇷. I highly recommend Cosmopoli French. Merci beaucoup, Nathalie.

I have been a long term student with Nathalie. Have thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Nat is a naturally gifted teacher -in fact all of the teachers I have come across at Cosmopoli have been top notch. The conversation topics are always interesting and topical. Absolutely recommend her school to anyone-beginners or advanced. Less

Nathalie is an extremely warm, patient and supportive teacher. As an adult student this is particularly important to me. Classes are always interesting in subject matter; and while they have structure, there is flexibility should the flow of discussion sidetrack, as it will from time to time. For me learning french with Prof Nathalie is a most enjoyable challenge. Anne McCrimmon Less

French lessons with Nathalie are the highlight of my week. She has a great teaching method and her lessons are always well-prepared and interesting; so different from the large classes and text book approach of other courses I have attended. Nathalie always ensures everyone's input counts so her students always feel valued and respected, so important when you are learning another language. Less

The teaching philosophy and methods of Cosmopoli' French make it a fun environment to learn. You don't follow a rigid texbook approach. There's a real emphasis on developing practical language and compréhension skills. Class sizes are usually small and the atmosphere is relaxed. It's an ideal way to learn and enjoy the French language. Mike (a Cosmpoli' French student of many years). Less

We love classes at this boutique French school in Melbourne's CBD. Nathalie brings amazing energy and positivity to lessons that cover a range of interesting issues and topics. The welcoming environment and comfy sofas make for relaxed environment to learn & improve your French. So glad we found this school after getting a recommendation at a French language meetup. Less

Highly recommend for a fun, interactive way to learn French as an adult. I’ve taken both in-person and online classes and both are great. I enjoy a cheeky glass of wine (or two) while I’m conversing :) Less

Nathalie is a wonderful French teacher. She gently controls the flow of the class so that no-one can dominate, and everyone gets a chance to speak. Her lessons are well planned, with plenty of variety and interesting topical issues to discuss. She manages to expand our vocabulary and knowledge of grammar at the same time, and is always very encouraging. I highly recommend her classes. Less
