French Classes

Emphasis in all courses is on communication achieved through active student participation. All classes are conducted in French, giving you maximum exposure to practice the language. Small classes are standard to facilitate communication. Most of the teachers are native speakers of French, with experience and special training in teaching techniques.

Classes for children: The purpose of these classes is to introduce French and francophone culture using a dynamic method that will help children learn how to communicate, play, and also write after a few classes. We will also consider creating classes for specific groups (children who already have some French language skills).
