Group French courses in Switzerland

With 30 lessons per week, the Intensive course is ideal for motivated students who want to dedicate themselves to studying. The 6th daily lesson is focused on writing skills and organised in a mini-group of a maximum of 7 participants.

The Semi-Intensive course differs from the standard course because of its fast work pace and further investigation into subjects with a more communicative and relaxed approach with optional topics and conversation. The 5 additional lessons per week mainly focus on oral communication.

Our STANDARD course is an excellent choice if you want to improve your language skills and to have free time on your hands. Classes normally take place in the morning, which means that you can make the most of your time off in the afternoon to visit the city and take part in the activities or outings that the school offers.

The daily format of this course (3 hours per day, 4 days per week) is designed to achieve maximum results. Our programme takes a practical approach by putting theory into practice, providing ample speaking opportunities, encouraging discussion between students, enriching vocabulary and consolidating grammatical knowledge.

This course is designed for students who wish to combine a group course with private lessons in order to acquire a deeper knowledge of the language. Taking extra private lessons is an excellent way of intensifying oral communication exercises outside a group.

Discover the Pearls of the Swiss Riviera. Cities’ lakeside locations with breathtaking views of the Alpine panorama, their extraordinarily mild climate, the vineyards, numerous excursion destinations in the region and proud paddlewheel steamers on the lake characterize the Leman Lake.

Certify your language level with confidence and guarantee your language assessment FIDE success. Since January 2019, in order to obtain a residence or settlement permit in Switzerland, non-citizens must prove that they have knowledge of the language spoken in their place of residence (upgrade the required levels).

If you have never studied French before these courses are for you. Whether you're looking for an introduction to the language before a holiday, or want to study intensively, we have a range of beginners classes available.

Through a combination of fun activities, testing challenges and a range of fascinating visits to places of interest, campers enjoy this unique learning experience, returning home improved French speakers. Campers will acquire new language skills and put them to use in the village and at camp all while enjoying an action-packed holiday.

We are pleased to inform you that you can now register for one of the upcoming group classes, starting mid-January, either at our school (sanitary situation permitting) or online.  You can find all available options and register directly here: https://swiss-language-academy.
