Join Mark and Hélène at the start of an engaging new story! In this first chapter of Scenes, our course for intermediate French learners, we are introduced to Chez Nico, a lively village café where locals and visitors cross paths.

We meet Nico, the new owner, who has just taken over the café where he grew up. As he navigates his first busy weekend, we also get to know Romain, a taxi driver and football enthusiast who stops by for his daily coffee. Between tourists on the terrace and local shopkeepers dropping in for lunch, Nico is off to a great start, but will Chez Nico be a success?

Alongside the story, Mark and Hélène will highlight useful grammar and vocabulary, such as the difference between the passé composé and imparfait and expressions like croiser les doigts.
