Questions, answered

For private tuition, tell us your preferred address when you register. We will check teacher availability and confirm whether travel fees apply before the arrangement is final.

Yes. Some group intakes and private lessons can run live online, which helps learners who cannot regularly travel to East Coast or Novena.

The schedule page is the source of truth for confirmed public classes. If you are waiting for a specific level, contact us and we can tell you what is being planned next.

The fees page lists the main public course prices, private tuition rates and book costs where they apply.

Not always. Several neighbouring modules can use the same book, and the teacher or team will confirm the exact material before purchase.

No. French Studio lists lesson fees and required books separately, without an extra membership or annual fee.

French Studio runs local classrooms, level pathways, administration and teacher continuity. The fee reflects a supported school environment rather than an anonymous tutor marketplace.

Class planning depends on confirmed seats and teacher scheduling. Check the terms before payment, and contact the team early if something changes.

Adult beginners normally start with Beginner 1, where pronunciation, classroom phrases, first verbs and simple exchanges are introduced from the ground up.

Use the placement test if you have previous French. You can also send us your background, approximate study hours and recent practice so we can advise before you register.

Tell us as early as possible. We will look for a suitable alternative when one exists, but make-up options depend on timetable, level and available groups.

Sometimes, but the class content and pace are written for adults. Most younger learners are better served by children, secondary, JC or private support.

For children aged 3 to 6, playgroup is the gentlest entry point: short routines, songs, movement, stories and repeated classroom language.

A complete beginner can usually start in a beginner children’s group. If the child has prior French or a school requirement, send us the age, school year and background first.

Share the child’s previous course, school year, comfort speaking French and writing level. A placement test or teacher check may be used when the level is unclear.

Some eligible local-school students may study French instead of Chinese, Malay or Tamil after school and MOE approval. French Studio can support the learning pathway once the family has confirmed eligibility.

Secondary and JC learners can receive support for grammar, oral answers, listening, reading, writing and revision habits. Extra private lessons may be useful near major school exams.
