The course combines group and individual lessons and is suitable for all levels: from beginners to advanced, including C1. Classes start every Monday, the minimum duration of the course is one week, but students can choose a longer period depending on their goals.

Before starting training, foreigners take an online written test, and on campus — an oral test with a teacher or methodologist: this allows you to accurately determine the level of French and distribute students into appropriate groups.

The group part of the program includes 20 lessons of 45 minutes each: general language competence is developed, communication skills are practiced in an interactive format, and exchange of experience between students is stimulated. Individual classes are scheduled 3–5 times a week for 1.5–2.25 hours: they allow you to focus on personal goals: you can improve pronunciation or prepare for exams, for example, you can learn business French.

Private Lessons

• Age — from 16 years old.

Private lessons provide an opportunity to choose the optimal learning pace — from 2 to 20 lessons per week — depending on the student's goals and free time. All classes are held individually with a certified teacher, built according to a personalized program.

The learning process is structured in stages: first, diagnostics of the starting language level is carried out, then specific goals are formulated jointly with the student. Based on this, a study plan is developed that includes interactive work formats and provides regular progress monitoring. All this allows you to adjust the methodology in time and focus on the most important tasks.

Key advantages:

• personal approach: the teacher fully concentrates on the student,
• individual features with which the student learns the material are taken into account,
• focus on topics relevant to a foreigner: for example, business French, exam preparation, conversational practice,
• accelerated progress due to targeted personalized work.

Teachers are selected according to strict criteria: in addition to high qualifications, personal qualities are valued: patience, care, willingness to help the ward. This creates a favorable atmosphere for effective language learning.
