PL+S - Pedagogy

Our language institute has adopted the Common European Framework of Reference for the teaching, evaluation and learning of French as a foreign language (FLE).

Our teachers, all native French speakers, have degrees from French universities that allow them to teach French as a foreign language while keeping in mind the linguistic needs of foreign students. Specific education modules are systematically designed for all teaching destined for businesses, according to the student’s and the enterprise’s objectives.

Our classes are made up of a wide mix of nationalities, none of which is particularly predominant.

The teaching style is based on communication and the active participation of students (work in small groups, role playing, etc.). Our teachers use numerous sources like news and magazine articles and audio documents like French songs, recorded conversations, films, documentaries, etc. The class documents are therefore customized by the teachers for each class.

After each class, students are assigned homework, which is corrected the next day by the teacher and returned to the student during the following class. This allows students to develop written linguistic competencies. Homework assignments are varied and include grammar, conjugation, editing, re-writing, etc.

At the end of their studies, students acquire a balanced oral and written comprehension level, allowing them to take enrollment exams for the French university system.
