Course description

This course is designed for people who:

• already have a basic knowledge of French and want to reach a more proficient level / be comfortable in everyday situations (when traveling around, having a social conversation...),
• have little knowledge of French and would like to be comfortable in usual social situations / when visiting in France.

As you can see from the package description above, this course is packed with lots of entertaining activities. It gives you more time if you prefer to concentrate on visits and social activities rather than proper lessons.

As for all our training courses, we will start by testing your written and oral skills in French (written test to send back and oral evaluation by phone), so that we put you in the relevant group and identify your needs.

Just like the intensive course, you will practise your French in real-life situations. Again, we focus on learning all the necessary structures through interactive exercises and relevant content.

This course is designed for people who want to acquire efficient communication in French, while enjoying a lot of what the Provence region can offer in terms of gastronomy, culture, renowned wines and so much more.

At the end of your course, you will be able to speak French in a lot of useful situations so that you can really communicate ... and so you really "connect" with people. In any case, it will give you strong structures to acquire more vocabulary and fluency when using your French.

Finally, we'd like to stress the fact that our success also comes from the fact we work in small groups and favor oral expression ... so, you'll always feel actively involved in the course. In other words, be prepared to be challenged and stimulated throughout your French experience!

You'll be surprised how much you can speak and remember en français!

The content of the lessons will depend on the type of course you go for. It can either be General French or Business French.
