29 General French Courses for Adults in Montpellier

The goal of LSF’s Standard French course is to equip students with the tools they need to expand their knowledge and skills across a broad range of areas, including: listening comprehension, oral expression, reading comprehension, and writing.

A constant theme throughout the course will be using aspects of French culture to supplement the learning that takes place in the classroom, such as topics related to current affairs, social norms, and debates about any range of subjects.

There is constant monitoring of your progress, as participants are expected to take a test every week to closely measure your progress - and to highlight any strengths and weaknesses you might have in your work.

On Mondays, the lessons take place from 13:30 to 15:30. On Tuesday to Friday, lessons run from 9:00 to 12:30.
