Our small group day and evening classes are the ideal way to learn French.
Each term you can choose from four course types:
- Once a week: one level over 12 weeks. You need to find one free slot in your busy week.
- Twice a week: one level in 6 weeks (and so two levels in a 12 week term if you take consecutive courses)
- Intensive: one level in 2 weeks (and so potentially 6 levels in a 12 week term). Th emost immersive choice.
- Saturdays: one level in 12 weeks but at a more liesurely pace.
There is no VAT on our fees and a course book with accompanying CD and access to our online resources is free. We use the five volume Alter Ego series, which takes you from complete beginner to advanced level. The book was written by Alliance Française teachers in Paris and is the ideal text for the Alliance Française method which follows the recommendations of the Common European Framework for Languages.
