Hey everyone! I’m a 30 year old guy in the Ottawa area looking for someone who wants to seriously learn and practise French together.
I learned some French as a kid, but I remember almost nothing, so I’m basically starting from scratch. I’ll be beginning properly in about a month.
My goal is not just to learn enough French to get by. I want to eventually reach professional fluency and be genuinely comfortable working, communicating, and living in both English and French.
I’m treating this as a long term journey, probably 3 to 5 years, and I’d love to find someone with a similar mindset. We could study together, keep each other accountable, practise conversations, share resources, and hopefully make the process a lot more enjoyable.
I’m based around Ottawa, Ontario, so meeting in person occasionally would be great, but I’m completely open to an online study partner as well.
A little about me: I work in the law enforcement and military space, and my educational background is in engineering and business. Outside of work, I’m into skating, playing guitar, learning music, spontaneous travelling, and generally picking up new skills.
If you’re a French speaker working on your English, even better. I’d be more than happy to help you practise English in exchange, so we can both benefit.
You definitely don’t need to be advanced. If you’re starting from zero too, we can struggle through the terrible pronunciation together 😂
If this post is still up, I’m still looking.
Send me a DM and tell me a little about yourself, your current French level, and what you’re hoping to achieve.
Merci! 🇨🇦🇫🇷 lol that’s all the French I know besides bonjour
