Our Story

Benjamin Houy

Benjamin Houy

Founder of French Together

French Together was born out of my personal language learning journey. As a native French speaker learning English, I initially struggled with traditional methods that focused on rote memorization and rigid grammar rules. For years, I made little progress, feeling frustrated and disconnected from the language I was trying to learn.

Everything changed when I discovered the power of immersion and authentic content. I started watching movies and TV series in English, engaging with native speakers, and using the language in real-life contexts. Suddenly, learning became not just effective, but enjoyable. I made more progress in one year than I had in the previous six years combined.

In 2013, after an eye-opening experience teaching French in South Korea, I founded French Together. My goal was to create a learning method that focused on real, practical French – the kind of language that native speakers actually use in everyday life. I wanted to help learners avoid the pitfalls I had experienced and give them the tools to start speaking confidently from the beginning.

Today, French Together has grown into a thriving community with over 200,000 monthly visitors to our blog and a conversation-based app that has helped millions of French learners practice real-life conversation. Our proven method helps students train their ears to understand fast-talking locals, build their speaking confidence, and learn the vocabulary that French people actually use in their daily lives.
