Guided by our dedicated French professors who are seasoned and native speakers, our small group French classes are offered every two months and create an immersive environment where you can experience the French language through songs, radio, news articles, poetry, events, games and more. You’ll also learn about French culture and history. Ultimately, our goal is to help you master reading, speaking, listening and writing in French in a way that is both rigorous and fun.
