Why learn French in France?

If you study French in France, you will be immersed in not only the French language but also French culture. Dip into the French way of life, one of the most envied in the word and get to know French people first hand – what can be a more valuable experience ?

If you choose to learn French in France, not only do you immerse yourself in the French language by taking a French course, but as soon as you walk outside the classroom and the school, you are in France. It sounds simple and it is. Say ‘bonjour’ to people as you pass, learn the basics of shop conversations and current pleasanteries that are ‘in vogue’ as you do your daily shopping. Sample French food, learn about French style, visit some local attractions, see some of the astounding French scenery, and there is certainly plenty of that from sea, city to mountains. Fall in love with France as well as simply the French language.

Activity French Courses

What makes Alpine French School unique is the ability to combine French Intensive Courses with amazing activities in an area of outstanding natural beauty ! Combine French courses with activities such as skiing or snowboarding in the winter, climbing, hiking, mountain biking and adventure activities in the summer. If these activities are too active for you, we also offer French and yoga courses so you can relax and rejuvenate in the clean Alpine air. In the winter, ski or snowboard in the mornings and then take a French Intensive Course in the afternoons. In the summer, make the most of the cooler mornings to enjoy the Alpine activities before heading to the school in the afternoon. Not only are the activities unique, but the French courses too. Alpine French School organises everything from the French courses to accommodation, we take care of organising your activities and we can arrange your collection from Geneva airport.

If it seems like there is too much choice and it would be easier to talk to one of us in person, just phone us and we would be happy to answer any questions you may have !
