What Simon Jean Ergas is saying about this Meetup Group

I felt that the people I met this time were far more engaged in learning and speaking French, as well as learning about the culture of the French speaking world. I consider this very positive. Constructive efforts at no matter what level of ability, beginner or advanced, are always greatly appreciated and to be encouraged.

It made for a very difficult conversation.
