French for kids online – learn French with Ditto

Yes, before starting any course, we organize a trial lesson for the child – it’s a great opportunity to meet the teacher, break the ice, and see how your child will engage in online lessons. For the teacher, it’s also a valuable chance to learn about the child’s needs and interests and, in the case of kids who have already studied French, to assess what they already know and determine the appropriate starting level in the Ditto Kids system. The trial lesson lasts 20 minutes – to book one, simply sign up here.

Absolutely yes. Concerns that learning two foreign languages at the same time might cause difficulties are completely unfounded. Starting French early—one of the more challenging European languages—gives your child a long-term advantage. By becoming familiar with the melody and sounds of the French language, your child will naturally develop correct pronunciation, strengthen their language intuition, and take their first steps in French. This forms an excellent foundation for progressing later and eventually preparing for the DELF French language certification.

Yes, at Ditto Kids, teachers connect with kids via live video calls on the Teams platform. The teacher presents engaging, interactive materials and gives the child control over the screen to complete exercises, mark answers, and draw directly on the digital platform. Eye contact during online French lessons is crucial, as the sessions are conducted entirely in French. Teachers use gestures to support communication and introduce new material using visual aids. It’s also important for the teacher to observe the child’s reactions during the lesson to respond and provide motivation in real time.

French online courses for kids are conducted entirely in French to give the child the opportunity to immerse themselves in the language and use their natural potential for acquiring a foreign language without the need to consciously learn grammar rules. To make the understanding process easier for kids, we use well-prepared audiovisual materials and a range of explanation and communication techniques, including TPR – Total Physical Response. This approach allows us to successfully teach kids to speak French!

By staying up to date with your child’s progress, you can observe how they gradually gain greater communication skills in French and support them in their language development journey.

It is important that your child feels safe and comfortable. Some children, especially younger ones, need a parent's presence during the first few lessons to help with technical issues and to facilitate building a relationship with the teacher. However, most children are happy to participate in meetings with our French teachers independently after the first 2-3 lessons.

Online French lessons for children at Ditto Kids last 25 minutes each and are built around a main theme — the child learns French vocabulary, how to describe objects and phenomena, ask questions, and answer them. Most importantly, each lesson in the online French course for children includes a large amount of communication and the immediate use of new vocabulary in a live dialogue with the teacher. Learning French online for children at Ditto Kids is effective because the child naturally absorbs language rules through imitation of the teacher and repetition, without the need for traditional grammar study, regardless of the level.
