Course Overview

This course is designed for beginners who have little to no knowledge of the French language. Oral and written activities are offered so that you can put into practice what you have learned in the sessions. Above all, all teaching processes are carried out by our native French tutor in a completely immersive environment to create a better learning place. By the end of the course, you will be able to take part in simple conversations, act and perform daily tasks in a French-speaking context. For ex: "Au caf", "Ma famille" etc... From French pronunciation, to presenting yourself in a simple manner, learning the present tense, the basic structures and much more, you will lay the foundation of your French and you will gain confidence to speak and analyse the language and open up to French and Francophone culture. The Beginner level consists of two parts, followed by a consolidation course; it is recommended that you attend both parts before joining the consolidation course.
