One-to-one intensive week-end: 18h / 2 days – suitable for intermediate or advanced levels:
This course has been developed in response to the demand from busy people (professionals or private individuals) for intensive tuition in French in a French-speaking environment that they can fit into their already crowded schedule which precludes them from attending courses during their working week.

To meet this requirement Le Français Face à Face provides an intensive week-end, the content of which is the same as the intensive 35-hour program. It can be a good option to have an intensive week-end after a one-week intensive or semi-intensive programme or just to refresh your language skills. It also is a good way to get ready for an oral examination that you have been working for or just to prepare an interview in French. Accommodation is provided in a very spacious, modern and comfortable loft located in the very center of Angers. Active lunch with your teacher on Saturday and on Sunday. Active dinners can be arranged on Friday and/or Saturday upon request.
