Teaching methods

7 points to ensure your success in learning French:
Accent Français has developed an effective and original teaching method based on 7 points to ensure you have a productive stay and rapid progress:
  Small study groups from 3 to 10 students: the best conditions to ensure communication, to provide individual help and to follow up each student’s progress.
  2 teachers per class: offering different teaching methods and of course different French Accent!! All teachers at Accent Français are French native speakers, qualified with a special university degree to teach French as a foreign language. We select them for their skills and enthusiasm and you will appreciate the dynamism of their teaching.
  Focus on practical communication: Students will directly improve the lesson through oral training, conversation in real life situation, role games, recordings and pronunciation.
  Lively and effective teaching methods: Teachers use a wide variety of regularly updated documents (audio and video tapes, newspapers, radio and TV, internet, exercises...). Their enthusiasm as well as the school’s relaxed atmosphere will make learning grammar almost a pleasure!!
  Flexibility: We are very concerned with your demands and needs and will react promptly if you wish to switch for an upper or lower level group. Teachers’ meeting is held once a week to study each student’s specific problems and progression and to prepare courses adapted to students’ profiles.
  Respect of the European levels: All classes, level tests and certificates are organized according to the Common Reference Framework for Language Learning (European passport from level A1 to C2)
  Preparation of nationally recognized diplomas: All courses are in keeping with general patterns of Delf, Dalf and Tef examination. You can sit for TEF examination at Accent Francais. For other exams preparation, private lessons are warmly recommended.

Teacher’s enthusiasm and the very special atmosphere of our school will make learning French a real pleasure!

Progression :

  Every week teachers have a meeting to evaluate each student’s progress, interests and necessity to change for an upper or lower level class. Students can thus progress to a higher level at their own rhythm. These meetings allow teachers to exchange and renew regularly teaching methods and to enrich their courses programs of new ideas.
  At the end of each month we organise a level test to improve your skills and evaluate which level you have completed.
