FRENCH COURSES ABROAD INFO:
Our team will advise you according to your needs, so please feel free
to contact us for any advice or if you simply want to chat through
our range of French courses in France or abroad. We offer the following
French courses:
General French
Course
This is the most popular course among our French courses abroad, and
runs throughout the year at all levels from beginners to advanced.
Classes focus on the four main language skills of speaking, listening,
reading and writing, combined with aspects of local culture. This
course is recommended for those who wish to learn the language at
a steady pace and attracts students of all ages and backgrounds. Classes
usually take place Monday to Friday in the morning, although in high
season they make take place in the afternoon.
Intensive
French Course
This course is similar to the general course in that it runs throughout
the year and at all levels from beginners to advanced. It is recommended
for those who want to take a French course abroad but who may have
less time to study and/or who want more intensive language tuition
each week. The average age is usually higher than that of the general
course and student motivation is strong. Classes focus on the four
main language skills of reading, writing, listening and speaking,
and take place Monday to Friday both in the morning and the afternoon.
Individual French Course
This is the one of our most effective French courses abroad, and is
designed to adapt to the specific requirements of you, the student.
It is tailor-made to your individual needs and interests, and will
progress at just the right speed for you. At the beginning of the
course you will sit down with your teacher and discuss your requirements
and goals. Sometimes you will alternate teachers to give you exposure
to different French accents and/or to learn vocabulary specific to
your business. Unlike group courses, it is sometimes possible to start
your individual course on a day other than a Monday.
Combined
French Course
This course is ideal for combining the experience of learning the
language in a group whilst at the same time receiving individual classes.
The group classes in the morning encourage student interaction and
help you improve your practical communication skills. The individual
classes in the afternoon allow you to work on areas you may feel need
extra practise or which are of particular interest to you. The students
who usually take this type of course are generally highly motivated
to learn as much French as they can in the shortest time possible.
Classes take place Monday to Friday.
Cactus also offers additional French courses abroad, such as mini
group, business, specialist and long-term courses. The Cactus team
will be pleased to provide you with more information about these courses.
