Program

Each monthly session of intensive courses consists of :

    > 72 hours of general courses. This represents 18 days of 4 hours each,

    > and 2 days off: no classes.

These two days off are generally placed on the Wednesday of week 2 and the Friday of week 4 of the session. However, due to calendar or activity constraints, these two days off may be subject to change on certain sessions. 

We confirm that the dates of the two days off will be communicated to you before the start of your session in the welcome email.

These 2 days off allow you:

    > to take part in different activities proposed by the Alliance Française de Paris: linguistic excursions in Paris, reinforcement and thematic workshops, DELF and TEF exams or cultural activities,

    > to fit in with public holidays on certain sessions.

Inside the classes, you will work on oral/written comprehension and discover the functioning of the language from a variety of documents (videos, written and audio) and in context (in many everyday situations). You will carry out a variety of activities and constantly exchange with other learners and the teacher. 

Grammar, lexicon and pronunciation are covered in an active way. 

Oral and written expression activities are offered so that you can put into practice what you have learned in the sessions. 

Classes are held in rooms equipped with interactive digital boards
