Group course
Our group courses are open to all levels, from beginner to advanced. Come and improve your skills while discovering the richness of French culture!
What is my level? What do A1 and A2 mean?
Take a placement test to find out which course to enroll in.
Our group courses are designed to offer you a complete, dynamic and interactive learning experience, while allowing you to progress at your own pace, whatever your level. We offer courses from level A1 (beginner) to level C1 (advanced), rigorously following the criteria of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), to guarantee structured teaching adapted to your needs.
Next session will start on 3rd of March 2025.
Students must get the book and workbook corresponding to their level before the beginning of the session (see references below).
The Alliance Française reserves the right to cancel a course if there are fewer than 5 registrations. In this case, the Alliance Française will do its utmost to offer you an alternative.
