Bonjour!¡Hola!
I am Nicole Weissman founder of You Can Speakit, a woman owned business based in Chicago.
You Can Speak It is your best option for learning French or Spanish (or both, pourquoi pas?) from anywhere in the world. Here you will appreciate passionate teaching and cultural relevance with a personal touch.
​
I offer an innovative method to learning languages with a unique approach to classes differentiating from those of high school, college and other language institutions where you would spend more time studying the language than actually using it.
​
All levels are offered : beginner, intermediate, advanced.
You can start at anytime and move at your own pace.
​
Reasons to learn a new language:
-
Proven as one of the best brain-boosting activities.
-
54% of Europeans speak a second language, only 17% of Americans
-
expand your world.
-
If your kids are learning French or Spanish at school, you can practice together and make the language alive as a family. Great progress and family time for everyone!
-
Make your travels smarter and more meaningful
-
Allows you to work internationally
-
A great interactive and social activity
"Without regular practice, it is impossible to become fluent in a language.
