The Pittsburgh French Meetup Group is a well established group for French speakers of all ages and abilities to meet up and practice French conversation & share interests in French culture. We welcome native French speakers (and there are many) as well as beginners and all shades in-between. We focus on conversation, fun events, and all aspects of French Culture. French (& Vietnamese) are my first languages, and French (& Arabic) are Roula's first languages.
I started this group about 10 years ago as a way to help friends learn French. We are starting several classes - beginner - intermediate - and advanced - for which there is a small fee to attend.
Also, we meet most weeks at other locations in Pittsburgh for fun, conversation, & exchange of ideas. These sessions are FREE for the most part. You are encouraged to be active and to suggest events and places - I can post them on the site.
We ask that members fill out their profile so we know who you are. This helps members in getting to know each other.
Also: you need to add a picture of yourself before I can add you to the meetup. we don't have anonymous members here.
Bienvenue au groupe!
