The French Room’s 6 Fluency Levels - Grammar Tutorials (Tutos)

Level 1 – Begin Your French Learning Adventure (A0)

  • Start learning essential French grammar to get by when travelling. Find out how grammar makes sense of the language and gives you the freedom to create sentences and speak. Starting with the essentials of "Etre" and "Avoir"

Level 2 – Build Momentum: Create Simple Sentences with Ease (A1)

  • Find out about how to use the essential ingredient in every sentence "VERBS".
  • Build on what you know about "Etre" and "Avoir" and start using "ER" verbs and seeing how they work with other word types in a phrase.
  • You will also learn how to use adjectives to describe people and things, numbers, the time, the weather, saying who something belongs to and how to identify something as "this, that, the".
  • You'll find out how to say "something, someone, somewhere" and say where things are and when they happened "depuis, pour, pendant, en"

Level 3 – Join the Conversation: Everyday Chats (A2)

  • To be able to speak in everyday situations such as the market, you need to understand how different categories of words fit together in basic phrases. This gives you the freedom and confidence to start piecing together your own with increasing sophistication and flair.
  • This includes adverbs, "IR" and irregular verbs, reflexive verbs, modal verbs like pouvoir, vouloir and devoir, the verb aller, pronouns, giving orders, le conditionel (politeness/advice), making comparisons and saying "from" and "to".
  • Level 3 takes more time to cover in grammar terms. Once you have fully completed and understood these grammar points you will feel the difference in your conversation ability.

Level 4 – Build Fluency: Express Yourself with Confidence (B1)

  • Learn about using the past tenses in depth: le passé composé and l'imparfait. Discover the nuances of when to use each of these tenses and lay the foundations for using composed tenses.
  • Once you get this, tenses will no longer be a mystery to you.
  • Plus you will learn how to use qui and que, ask questions and use negatives, le futur proche, prepositions à and de after verbs, a focus on some special uses of verbs and how to clearly communicate the time when something happens.
  • Level 4 sees you develop a more natural way of speaking that requires less thinking time and more spontaneous speech.

Level 5 – Dive Deeper: Chat Like a Local in Real-World Situations (B2)

  • Get into the detail of the nuanced meaning behind le futur simple, le futur antérieur, le conditionel and my favourite le subjunctif.
  • Plus make logical connections between ideas and events using la cause, la conséquence, le but and l'opposition vs la concession.

Level 6 – Embrace the Culture: Fluent Discussions on French Life (C1)

Attain advanced proficiency, enabling you to participate in detailed discussions, understand nuanced language, and appreciate cultural contexts.

These structured levels are designed to guide you from the basics to advanced fluency, aligning with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). Each level builds upon the previous, ensuring a comprehensive and immersive French learning experience.

Introducing the Course Player

When you have selected a Tuto to watch you will find yourself in the Course Player. The Course Player removes all distractions from your learning so you can purely focus on the Tuto you are studying.

You will see it even has its own navigation menu that only shows you the course or library that you are studying at that moment.

If you would like to move between libraries or visit other parts of the site, you will need to exit The Course Player first.

How do I browse a library for inspiration?

The libraries are designed to give you lots of variety, spark your interest and give you the option to move through them at a pace that suits you.

Think of the sections as you would a book shop, or a physical library and the Tutos as books. Browse the sections either by Collapsed List View or Picture Tile View and find a level or a topic that sparks your interest. 

I also give recommendations in live classes and RDV Tuto Videos.

Remember though that you are moving through it one Tuto at a time, as you would a book or an episode of your favourite box set.

How do I see my progress in a library?

There are 3 places where you can view your progress

1. My Study page Progress Section will show you the overall percentage progression by Library
2.The Course Player navigation will show a tick by the side of any Tuto you have previously visited
3. Your App tells you the total number of Tutos you have watched across all Libraries, your total Study Time and number of days Idle. 

How do I watch Tutos offline?

You can download as many Tutos as you wish and watch them offline. They will remain available for as long as you keep them downloaded.

If you cancel your subscription you will no longer have access to downloaded content.

How long should I stay inside a library?


How long you stay inside a particular Library will be personal to you. It will depend on whether you want to focus on a particular skill, whether you are working through a particular level or could be driven by your curiosity.

How do I use libraries alongside Bonjour Brilliance?

Bonjour Brilliance introduces you to culture and language skill by theme, the libraries give you the resources to go and fully study and expand on things you have found interesting or challenging in the weekly Rendez-Vous Tutos.

For example, if vocabulary techniques have come up in Bonjour Brilliance, and this has inspired you to expand yours, the Vocabulary Library is there to give you complimentary Tutos to help you do just that. 

How do I use libraries alongside Live Classes?

Before class, dip into a related Tuto to feel more prepared. After class, use a library to review, reflect, or expand on what you covered. It’s a great way to turn your class time concrete understanding and progress.
