Le Francais Face a Face, Residential Trainings In French

Individual and intensive french language training

Because individualised and personalised training is the only way to help you communicate within a short time, our method involves the student working individually with their trainer, who coaches them and guarantees their progress. You’ll see results in just five days!

Pedagogy in 3 points:

1. Individual personalised training
   Permanently one on one with their trainer, the learner makes good, fast progress. They quickly develop strong motivation which drives their progress.
2. Intensive training
   Up to 60 hours immersion with 40 hours of direct and supervised contact time.
3. “Controlled” linguistic immersion training
   The stay implies cutting yourself off from your usual environment and particularly with the language in which you usually communicate. It favours and accelerates the learner’s progress. The full board aspect accompanying the training allows “controlled immersion”. The trainer designs the course and coaches the student through it, creating truly worthwhile immersion.

Commitments:

1. From practice to theory
   Using practical language allows us to access the theory successfully.
2. A logical building process
   Each point which is acquired acts as the basis for the next one. Progression is constructed on a logical basis taking into account the structures of the French language and priority communication needs.
3. Maximum talking time
   Up to 40 hours supervised classes. Maximum talking time for the learner.
4. The student-protagonist: an interactive method
   The learner is constantly involved in the class. He is the real protagonist of the training session.
5. Personalised and adapted monitoring
   The trainer personally monitors their student throughout the training. They implement the necessary tools and adapt their training rhythm to meet the fixed objectives..
