Bienvenue!
Our Adult Beginner I Class takes place every Monday or every Thursday at Little Sorbonne Downtown and West Broadway.
Our Adult Beginner II/Weak Intermediate Class takes place every Tuesday at Little Sorbonne West Broadway.
You are invited to join these dynamic General French classes. We are conveniently situated in the heart of Vancouver. Our lessons will teach you the basics of French grammar and vocabulary with a particular focus on encouraging oral communication. Your teacher is available to answer any questions you may have during the week by email.
*Beginner 1 classes are perfect for those who have never studied any French or have only studied high school French but have not used French much since then.
Our Philosophy
We firmly believe in teaching our students practical French skills which allow them to communicate in everyday situations. Our highly motivated instructors are native speakers who have many years of experience teaching languages. The only thing we ask students to bring to class is a positive attitude!
