Children’s courses
We offer French as a Mother Tongue (FLAM) and French as a Foreign Language (FLE) courses for children aged from 4 to 12 years old.
These courses will be open to a minimum of 6 children and the maximum number of children per class is 12.
French as a mother tongue courses
The 4-6 year-old course gives priority to oral skills, while introducing reading and spelling. Children learn to talk about their daily lives through fun, interactive activities (songs, children’s books or poetry, crafts, board games, etc.). The objective is to create an environment entirely devoted to French, in which the children feel comfortable using the language.
When: Saturdays from 9.30am to 10.30am.
Number of lessons :
- 33 lessons per year (€460)
- Semester 1: 15 lessons (€210)
- Semester 2: 18 lessons (252€)
______________________________________________________________________________
The 7-9 year-old course focuses on reading and writing the French language. Children learn to spell common words correctly, and the emphasis is on prosody and pronunciation. Poetry and French-language literature accompany this learning process. The activities are fun and interactive, so that children enjoy learning and using the language.
When: Wednesdays from 1.30pm to 2.45pm.
Number of lessons :
- 37 lessons per year (€650)
- Semester 1: 18 lessons (€315)
- Semester 2: 19 lessons (€333)
______________________________________________________________________________
The 10-12 year-old course focuses on how the language works. Children improve their spelling and -conjugation skills. At this age, the emphasis is on oral and written production. Children learn the rules through exercises and apply them immediately by completing projects (presentations, short films, stories, etc.). These projects give concrete form to concepts that remain abstract until they are used.
When: Wednesdays from 1.30pm to 2.45pm.
Number of lessons :

French as a foreign language courses
The 4-6 year-olds course introduces children to the French language for the first time. Children will learn to introduce themselves, talk about their immediate environment (parents, colours, animals, toys, nature, etc.) and sing in French. The courses give priority to oral expression and the children will learn through fun, interactive activities.
When: Saturdays from 10.45am to 11.45am.
Number of lessons :

The 7-9 years course introduces reading and writing French. The themes covered are broadened and grammar concepts are introduced. Children learn the basics of conjugation, spelling and pronunciation, all through fun, interactive activities.
