French Intensive Courses with Alpine French School

French Intensive Courses are a great way to improve your French in a short space of time. For optimum benefit, we recommend doing several consecutive weeks but one week is better than none at all if you are pushed for time! We run French Intensive Courses every week.

Time and length of courses

Our French Intensive Courses are 3 hours per day, 5 days per week, Monday to Friday. In the winter ski season, the lessons take place from 13h30-16h45 with a 15-minute coffee break in the middle. At all other times of the year, courses run from 9h00-12h15 with a 15-minute coffee break.

Levels

We run several groups for our French Intensive Courses every week, so we are able to cater for all levels all year-round. We start complete beginner courses every 4 weeks. If you aren’t sure of your level, you can take our online test or contact us for an evaluation and we can answer any questions you may have about the course at the same time.

Teachers

All of our French courses including our French Intensive Courses are taught by French native-speakers. All of our teachers are qualified, experienced and enthusiastic about teaching. They love getting to know our students and ensuring they get as much as possible from their lessons with us.

What lessons are like on our French Intensive Courses

Our French Intensive Courses cover a wide variety of themes and materials. You will learn some grammar in order to structure and form sentences, vocabulary to stop you being lost for words, you will play games, take part in conversational and interactive activities to get you really using French and your teacher will introduce you to French culture via videos, podcasts and clips.
