Virtual Conversation Group

French Maine USA
The group meets on Thursdays at 7pm Eastern. We meet for an hour (+). The conversation is almost entirely in French. All levels are welcome. But attendees should be able to understand and be willing to express themselves in French (to the best of their ability – no one is judging). It’s a sharing and learning experience!
