French courses
with a difference
IN PERSON OR ONLINE - THE CHOICE IS YOURS!
The pandemic brought a whole new dimension to our School and opened us up to the world of online teaching. This proved to be hugely successful for our students, economising, as it does, on travelling time and costs.
At the same time, we are acutely aware that some students prefer face-to-face learning, so we are delighted to announce that from now on, we are able to offer you both!
Whichever way best suits your needs, our dedicated Team of Tutors are here to provide you with exceptional French language tuition!
Classes & Private Tuition unlike any other in Oxford
We have offered French courses in Oxford since 1987: we have used that time to create, develop and refine well-tested methods of enabling our students to achieve the very highest standards and grades.
For 27 years, we were the Oxford branch of Alliance Française. In 2014, we chose to become independent in order to be free of the bureaucratic requirements of a larger organisation.
Why we are different
We decided against large classes and nondescript venues. Instead, we launched our Mini-Class system where numbers in groups are restricted to a maximum of 3 students, taught in a welcoming context of books, paintings and flowers.
All of us here are French, inspired by a love of our native language and of our wonderful culture. We are a team of tutors who are deeply committed to teaching and sharing this passion for French with our students in a dynamic and professional manner.
We are a team of young academics, all native speakers. Our teaching skills are perfected by university degrees and training practice. With our help you will learn to enjoy real conversations in French as much as you do in your own native language. And we are determined to make our younger pupils excel in their exams.
