Discover our exclusive monthly French courses designed by our expert pedagogical engineers from the Cours de civilisation française de la Sorbonne.
These short programs are intended for students at beginner, elementary, or intermediate levels (A0, A1, A2, or B1). They allow for rapid and effective learning of the French language at each student’s individual pace. These courses include oral expression setting alongside French language classes.
Students enrolled in these monthly courses can progress quickly in all aspects of French language mastery.
A certificate from the Cours de civilisation française de la Sorbonne is awarded upon successful completion, serving as a key asset for students’ résumés.
