Main objectives of the course
Course learning journey
The FrenchBooster program is a winning combination of 3 sequences : weekly small-group sessions with highly participative activities, individual French coaching sessions to tackle your unique challenges and optional individual work on our in-house learning web app to practice and delve further into new concepts.
8 weekly small-group sessions
24h
Each small-group weekly session is devoted to one major area of everyday conversation. It’s the starting point to learn, practice and master new vocabulary, concepts and social codes.
Every session is based on a structured, stimulating and progressive learning process. Each person has a chance to speak and participate extensively within the group and gets personalized feedback from the teacher.
A learning booklet is issued and given to each participant at the start of each small-group class.
2 private 1-on-1 classes
3h
Each 1-on-1 private classes is focused on tackling your specific priorities and challenges: a persistent French language difficulty, a topic that you need to master, adopting new learning strategies, catching up on any missed small group sessions, practicing French at a Parisian museum, etc.
This is no improvised lesson. Your tutor will design a bespoke French curriculum for each of your 1-on-1 private classes.
1-on-1 French classes can be taken before the end of the FrenchBooster course either at your home, office, at one of our selected trendy and quiet Parisian cafés or event at a Parisian museum!
Online access to further challenges and resources
~30mn to 3h per session
After each session, you will have access to additional exercises, flashcards, quizzes, helpful and practical resources to memorize and assimilate the new concepts learnt during the class & to futher delve into the related topic. This optional guided homework assignment will help you take maximum advantage of your French lessons.
Our alumni continue to have an unrestricted access to our web app at least 1 year after their programme has ended.
Our students are open minded, curious and highly motivated expatriates and visitors, coming from countries all over the world. They have various backgrounds (business professionals, entrepreneurs, MBA students, expats’ life spouses/partners, freelancers…). Some have already been living in France for a long time, others have just arrived or are visiting. An outstanding opportunity to meet like-minded people, share tips and even make new friends.
