Course Information

Private lessons are a great way to progress in French. Lessons are planned according to your needs and objectives, they go at your own pace, and you get the teacher’s undivided attention! You can choose to focus your course on topics that you care about, language points that you want to understand and use better, and that may include vocabulary, idioms, grammar, or simply let our experienced teachers guide you…

Another advantage of private lessons is the schedule which again is built around you, so if you’re not able to attend class at a fixed time each week, that’s not a problem.

Finally you may be in the valley for only short periods at a time – that’s also ok. You can take lesson while you’re here more or less intensively, then try online lessons when you’re away if you like!

I have had several courses of lessons with Alpine French School in the last three years and can highly recommend them. I was virtually a beginner when I moved to the Morzine area and can now get by quite comfortably running my business and dealing with every day life in France. Helen has always been incredibly helpful and organised my yearly training budget so that I receive my lessons for free. The teachers have been great too, I have only had one week of lessons with Debs but she was fantastic. I have had all of my recent lessons with Christelle and she is brilliant. She is good at reading the class and tailoring the lessons accordingly. I have had a mixture of intensive courses, group and private lessons and all have been very beneficial. The weekly conversational classes are great too just to keep up the practise in a positive learning environment. I’m looking forward to starting up with lessons again soon!

I had lessons with Alpine French School and enjoyed every minute. It was both challenging and rewarding and I would recommend it to anyone, even if you are a fairly fluent French speaker already. The Alpine French School staff helped organise all the funding too so the whole process was hassle free from start to finish

The teachers were fantastic – well informed and enthusiastic! They both conveyed great enthusiasm and got us to overcome our demons. Their approaches varied and the pace was well-judged

“Professional and experienced teachers with a great balance of work and fun”

- Shona Carnegie

I enjoyed everything about the course! The structure of the week was really good. Day on day developing what you had done the day before and building from there. A great learning experience and never felt like it was too much. The teacher was fantastic!

“Everything about the course was good, a good blend of everything I had wanted before the course started, plus loads that I didn’t realise I needed”

- Karen Brock

“I enjoyed learning new vocab and speaking French with people of a similar standard”

“Great structured lessons”

- John Taylor

“I am sad to have to stop my lessons – this is a very first for me and this is a glowing testament to our teacher who inspires confidence and makes the otherwise daunting subject of French grammar seem far less so. She brought boundless energy and above all fun to the lessons. Also she was flexible in keeping the subject varied and interest levels high”

- Russell Parsons

L’été était parfait pour moi à Morzine! Les leçons étaient très bien et je pense que j’ai fait des progrès! Et pour moi aussi l’organisation était super, merci pour tous! Je ne vais pas oublier cet été à Morzine. On se voit bientôt, je reviens en Janvier pour skier :)

Thank you for the week’s intensive French Courses. Tricia and I really enjoyed our weeks and both of us thought that our tutor was excellent. We look forward to booking some further lessons when we can.
