ℹ️ Additional Information

We ONLY organize small group classes of maximum 3-6 students, which is essential to have an effective learning process.
 

Our courses provide children with hands-on and age-appropriate activities to support structured French learning.
 

The French for Kids programme (6–9 years old) focuses on helping students explore the language in a clear and engaging way, combining guided practice with interactive elements. Children learn through games, songs, visual materials, worksheets, and simple classroom activities that reinforce vocabulary, pronunciation, and basic grammar concepts.

What studies say?It is proven that when students start learning French at a very young age they have special learning skills that elder students don’t have. This would give your kid a unique advantage. At a young age kids can easily master the correct pronunciation of words. Another unique advantage of starting early is the capacity of the students to develop very good listening skills compared to elder ones, which is a skill that is usually difficult to acquire. It is true that young kids lack other abilities of elder students such as the capacity of reading long texts quickly or write long assays, but this will not stop them from having a solid base in French. Do not hesitate and let your kid have a taste of French from a young age!
