Our Extensive Program
This program offers you the possibility of focusing on grammar and vocabulary aspects that suit your level, as you learn the essentials of French language. Indeed, our courses are adapted to levels going from beginner, to A1 and B2.
You’ll be learning about French culture in general, but also about Lyon patrimony and traditions (Lyon Bouchons, Lumière Cinema Festival, the tasty praline brioche, etc.). All these learnings will be put in place in our classrooms, but not only. You’ll put into practice all the theoretical knowledge through the many excursions in the city: getting engaged in daily life interactions with French native speakers and of course your teacher.
Whether you’re buying teleferic tickets to visit Fourvière Basilique or discovering the Old City and its passageways, French in Lyon will help you communicate fluently!
This is a program made for those who are eager to learn fast. As mentioned before, you’ll be interacting a lot and that makes this program speaking and listening centered.
In the classroom, you’ll be practicing both skills (along with grammar and writing) through conversations around the news or controversial topics and through rôle play, depending on your preferences and your own targeted topics for improving your vocabulary.

Our Tutoring Program
How it works :
Lessons when wanted :
All of our private lessons are scheduled when you need them, between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m., everyday (except on Sundays). The minimal duration these lessons have is 90 minutes.
Lessons where needed :
In your house, at your workplace or in our classrooms! Even more, if you prefer to walk and talk, to walk and learn, we offer you the possibility to do it too! This is one of our most successful modalities. Your teacher takes you to a Walk and Learn lesson around Lyon, where you get the chance of interacting in real-life situations thus becoming more autonomous and efficient.
And the best part is that these lessons are available to you as many times as you wish, you just have to schedule them in advance!

Our Combined Program
Our combined courses are organized in two complementary parts and two main options.
OPTION 1
In the morning, you’ll be learning French in a small group. In the afternoon, you’ll be practicing in the city what you learnt in the classroom. During the weekend, we prepare an excursion for you and your teacher. The detailed program will be handed to you in advance.
OPTION 2
This option in particular gives you the possibility to build a tailored schedule. On the one hand, with private lessons you’ll be able to broaden your knowledge in French. On the other hand, you’ll progress fast in your daily interactions through mini-group lessons. Reading books for learning about traditions in Lyon is interesting, but what if you learnt through actual interaction? Take a walk with our teachers around the city to get first-hand information !
We know preferences may vary from one student to another, so we’ll share with you a list of possible activities and you’ll choose depending on what you like. Are you an aesthete? The Beaux Arts Museum of Lyon or the many galleries will catch your eye. Are you more of a cinephile? Come and visit the Miniature and Cinema Museum in the Old City! Theater fans are also welcome to the Café-théâtres! But don’t worry, the plays will be approached in advance in the classroom, to ensure a better comprehension.
But in the classroom we can also discover the culture! Improv classes can also take place on our sites!
Anytime ( even on Saturday )
