A practical approach to French

zigzag french class

As an expatriate in Paris, you face various common daily situations - at work, in the shops, at your children's school, in your neighborhood, in the streets, in the French administration, in society, at home,... - in which you woud like or need to rapidly be able to interact with confidence in a natural and proper French.

That's why every lesson of our French courses aim at helping you to learn and practice the very vocabulary, language and social concepts that will be specifically and immediately useful in your daily life and will speed up and soften the usual adjusting process to your new living, work and social environment.

A personalized and structured learning routine

No improvised French lessons with us. Our French courses are backboned by a structured and cutting-edge pedagogy that has been successfully deployed and iterated over 10000+ since 2017. It lays on 4 core features:

Contextual and custom learning material, based on your Parisian reality

1

Our learning material is selected and customised to fit with your specific language priorities and progression and so that the content learnt during each class is fully and genuinely actionable in your Parisian everyday social or business life contexts.

A strong focus on building fluency and confidence

2

Every session is based on a very gradual, visual and participative learning practice. This process makes it easier for you to discover new content and master it phonetically, grammatically & socially, as well as to practice it extensively so that it rapidly becomes more natural.

A tailored online learning plateform

3

After each session, through our dedicated online learning plateform, you will get easy & unlimited access - at least up to 1 year after the end of the training - to the content of your face-to-face class, further related exercises, quizzes & learning resources designed to help you memorize better, assimilate faster and delve further into selected topics.

Continuous support and coordinated guidance

4

Your dedicated learning coordinator works closely with your instructor, using our advanced monitoring tools to ensure that your training program, course content, and learning materials are always 100% tailored, structured, and aligned with the goals set at the beginning of your program. As an expert in language education, curriculum design, and level assessment, the coordinator plays a key role in making your learning journey successful.
You'll also have access to our Slack workspace, which centralizes and streamlines all communication with the teaching team, helping you make the most of your experience.

Pairing you up with super skilled and passionate native tutors

Our French classes are performed by our small team of native French teachers, each of them being selected for their outstanding personality and interpersonal skills, excellent teaching skills and integrity.

The Novexpat Quality

The excellent results of our teaching method are the product of years of dedication and a constant commitment to improving our courses, tools, and support over the past 7 years. These improvements are driven by feedback from our learners and teaching staff and prioritized by our team of FLE (French as a Foreign Language) experts, led by Fabienne Defaux, co-founder and FLE professor with over 13 years of experience.

3 years ago, we took another step forward by aligning with the stringent standards of the national Qualiopi quality framework. Our system and approach to quality are regularly audited by an independent body to ensure we meet the highest standards in training services. We have been Qualiopi certified since 2021. This certification was awarded under the following category: Training Actions.

This recognition validates our efforts and allows our learners to access training funding through Mon Compte Formation, FAF, or their employer.
