Coucou is a French language school for adults, offering group and private classes both online and in person. Over the past decade, we've built our own teaching method designed around how French is actually spoken today, with a focus on conversation, cultural fluency, and a genuinely fun classroom. Beyond classes, we run cultural workshops and events that bring together a vibrant community of francophiles in New York and online.
