Why French Compass
Small classes, real teachers, a route that ends in fluency.
Live, never recorded
Every class is a real 90-minute session in a room of four to six — cameras on, questions welcome, no autopilot playlists.
C1-certified navigators
Taught by instructors who reached C1 themselves and have lived French across France, Luxembourg and Switzerland.
Built around your target
DELF, a CLB 7 for Canadian PR, a university place — the path is engineered backward from the outcome you need.
