At the Language Center we use effective, fast and state-of-the-art methods relying on multimedia, to learn pronunciation, grammar, syntax, and other important elements which lead to language mastery.
In your French classes, you will be asked to speak French only. We will ask you to do a lot of conversational work, based on contemporary French media such as newspapers, internet sites, television and radio, on a wide range of topics. You will cover important cultural aspects such as the “tutoyer vs. vouvoyer” question. Grammar and vocabulary will be taught extensively, so that you can progress quickly.
Finally, we will teach you the subtle differences between “Swiss-French” and “French”.
Individual Class Schedule
We offer individual courses at your convenience with a maximum of 6 hours per day and a minimum of 1 hour per week from 7 am to 9 pm by appointment. As the school operates on the principle of continuous registration, all schedules are modifiable and can be adjusted to your availabilities.
