NOT another English class.

Fixing Franglais is a unique series of corporate training workshops for French speakers who write and speak English in professional settings.

​

Finally, natural English for French speakers.

your natural English toolbox

Fixing Franglais uses an original four-step approach to self-guided correction in English.

​

Designed exclusively for adult French speakers, these trainings draw on psycholinguistic principles, and the resources and methods used by professional translators and language professors. 

​

Fixing Franglais won't teach you English. But it will give you a unique set of tools for identifying and eliminating Franglais, and finding the right words in natural English based on your specific context.

 

Because expressing yourself in a foreign language isn't just about knowing words!

Once you know the typical mistakes, you can fix them.
