About the course

At school, we will organise your French language courses with personalised learning path.

 

This program is available at all levels from beginner (A0) to advanced (C1). It is based on the key linguistic skills: reading, writing, understanding and with particular care to oral expression and phonetics. Students will learn to express themselves in both formal and casual conversations.

 

Thanks to our online placement test we have developed, our team will ensure that you are placed in a group that corresponds to your level. Each Monday, your teacher will present you with the pedagogical programme of the week, including the skills to be mastered, the grammar points and the vocabulary to be worked on. Assessments will be carried out regularly and you will receive personalised feedback on your progress based on the objectives to be achieved.

 

100% our courses are held face to face, in French, in a small group and by a native and qualified teacher of French ! It is a full immersion that is expecting you here!

 

Our Intensive course breaks down as follows:

- Standard course 20 lessons/week (15h)

6 lessons/week (3X1h30)

The 6 complementary lessons to the STANDARD course are very dynamic and allow you to enhance your language immersion: 

  • Grammar lessons to review and deepen your knowledge,
  • Activities to enrich your vocabulary to speak more and techniques to write, 
  • Phonetic exercises to speak better, tools to better understand information and society and to express yourself.

 

Your programme also includes:

pedagogical tutoring every Monday, with a teacher on hand to give you personalised assistance as you learn the French language
