Helping expats to speak with confidence
OhSpeak turns passive expat learners into confident speakers by focusing on real-life communication instead of theory.
Through guided conversation practice, practical topics, and supportive feedback, you build the ability to express yourself naturally in everyday situations, gain confidence step by step, and finally move from understanding a language to actually speaking it with ease.
Hi, I’m Samantha, founder of OhSpeak and a dedicated French teacher specialised in helping expats gain confidence in real-life communication.
I started with Experience the French in 2022, where I helped learners integrate French into their daily lives and overcome the fear of speaking.
Over time, I realised that many expats faced the same challenge across languages: they understand a lot, but struggle to actually speak.
That’s why I created OhSpeak, to help even more expats turn passive knowledge into real, confident communication through practical, conversation-based classes focused on real-life situations.
Florence is leading the evening and Saturday online French conversation classes.
Having lived for two years in Spain as an expatriate, she deeply understands the challenges of settling in a new country and learning a foreign language. She speaks English and Spanish
She knows how intimidating it can feel to speak up when confidence is still fragile, but also how rewarding it becomes to finally be able to communicate with ease.
With over 16 years of experience teaching French as a foreign language, she supports her students with kindness, patience, and good humor, creating a safe and encouraging environment where everyone feels comfortable speaking, progressing, and building confidence day by day.
Romane is available for one-to-one lessons and online French conversation classes.
Originally from Châteauroux and now based in Paris, she has built a rich international and professional background, including experiences in Mexico and Canada (Québec), as well as work in language schools and Alliance Française centres abroad. She also speaks English and Spanish.
These experiences have given her a deep understanding of what it truly means to start from scratch in a new country, and to find your voice in a new language.
Her approach is warm, practical, and 100% communication-focused. No pressure, just real French for real situations. She helps learners overcome the fear of speaking, gain confidence step by step, and feel more comfortable navigating everyday life.
With Romane, French becomes less about perfection and more about connection, confidence, and feeling truly at home where you live.
