Naturellement Français French courses for adults in the South of France

French courses for adults in the South of France

A small independent school, in your teacher’s home, at your own pace

Naturellement Français welcomes adults from all over the world, only one-to-one or in mini-groups of 3 learners at most.
In our winegrower’s house in Fabrezan, there are no large classes and no standardised programme: we take the time to build with you a programme tailored to your level, your goals and your interests.

Mickaël, a teacher by your side

After several years of teaching in Ottawa and then La Rochelle, I founded Naturellement Français in 2015, in Fabrezan: a small school where learning is based on communication, exchange and human connection.
With a master’s degree in Language Sciences (French as a Foreign Language), I welcome you personally, listen to your goals, adapt every lesson and stay by your side throughout your learning.

Learn French in a village between Narbonne and Carcassonne

Our school is based in Fabrezan, a picturesque 11th-century village in the Aude, Occitanie, in the heart of Cathar country, about 30 km (20 miles) from both Narbonne and Carcassonne. An authentic setting, far from big cities, to learn French at the pace of local life.

What our learners say

"Mickaël is very experienced and professional. He is able to make lessons feel like a conversation while still teaching grammar and vocab. For me, to have someone to correct and focus on my speaking and exactly where my problems are, was very valuable."
Lyndle, New Zealand (2nd stay) · TripAdvisor, 2026

"In addition to several hours of classroom tutoring every day, we went on two excursions designed to explore the region's cultural and natural heritage […] no English was spoken!"
