OUR METHODS

For conversational French : “Saison”

Saison is a method specially designed for adults who want to learn conversational French. The manual comes with a workbook to practise grammar, vocabulary and all the new linguistic patterns learnt in class, as well as a CD and a DVD to practice the listening skills.

With Saison, students learn the language in context and get to practice with many communicative activities, to interact and react in French, from the beginning of the learning process.

Saison follows the Common European Framework for Languages levels from A1 to B2 and offers some DELF preparations and exams for those who want to take the challenge.


For business French : “Objectif Express”

Objectif Express is a method designed for adults who need to speak French in their work environment. The learning material consists of a textbook, a workbook and a DVD to practice at home.

Objectif Express provides learners with the required skills and information to perform professional tasks, whether at head office or when traveling.

In order to perform these professional tasks, learners are not only equipped with linguistic tools (grammar, sentence structure, vocabulary) but also work on sociocultural elements. This cultural awareness is essential to better communicate with French-speaking counterparts.
