Fridays are devoted to specific courses (e.g. DELF/DALF preparation) and to tests and exams or personal activities.
*Cultura Online: an online cultural learning programme designed by the school’s teachers. Each week, a new theme is introduced to give students an insight into French culture and current affairs.
« L’Initial »
This course is aimed to those who wish to discover, refresh or improve their level of French for a short period of time, from 1 to 4 weeks. At the end of this course, the student has the possibility to take an official certification if he/she wishes. It is possible to start this programme every Monday except for the beginner levels which start on the dates indicated in the calendar.
« Le Certifiant »
This programme aims to accompany the student to the TCF (Test de connaissance du français). It is offered automatically to students who register for a period of more than 4 weeks. Whether for professional or academic reasons, the course is validated by an official certification recognised by French universities which accept students who have reached level B2.
« Le Diplômant »
This course prepares students for the DELF (Diplôme d’études en langue française) and the DALF (Diplôme Approfondi en Langue Française).
Obtaining a B2 level diploma or higher gives you the possibility of entering a university in France without an additional language test. It is also a real asset for a professional career in France or abroad.
« La Prépa »
This is THE safe way to succeed in higher education in France.
The student focuses on language, methodology and skills related to his or her field of specialisation in order to enter a “grande école”. At the end of the programme, the student is equipped to pursue his or her studies like other students and successfully graduate!
« Français + »
French and Photography is a programme offered in partnership with Spéos, a private school of higher education which for 35 years has been the reference for the photography profession and the leader in higher education for professional photography in France. During the summer, this programme offers the opportunity to study French and to learn about photography.
In addition to these programmes, students can also take private lessons, combined courses or additional preparation for the DELF B2 & DALF C1 exams.
