Learn French in Paris

Our French as a Foreign Language (FLE) courses are designed for non-French-speaking adults who wish to develop their French language skills for personal, academic, or professional purposes.

Delivered by qualified FLE instructors, our programme follows a communicative and action-oriented approach, encouraging learners to use French in real-life situations encountered in everyday life, higher education, and the workplace.

Course organization: up to 20 hours of French learning per week, depending on the learner’s level and study pathway.

Delivery format: courses are primarily delivered face-to-face at our training center in Paris, complemented by weekly e-learning modules and occasional online classes.

Levels available: A1 to C1. Before joining the programme, all learners complete a placement test to ensure they are assigned to the group best suited to their current level. While most groups are organized up to B2 level, some learners may achieve C1 proficiency by the end of their programme.

Enrolment: open throughout the year.

Course start dates: September each year, with opportunities to join during the academic year depending on the learner’s level and available places.
