Adult Intermediate French – B1 | In-Person

Take your French to the next level. Speak with greater confidence. Communicate more naturally.

Already have some knowledge of French but find it difficult to express yourself fluently or confidently?

At Le Petit Écolier, our Adult Intermediate French program is designed for learners who have a foundation in the language and are ready to strengthen their communication skills, expand their vocabulary, and develop greater accuracy and confidence in everyday French.

Whether you're improving your French for professional development, everyday communication, personal enrichment or future opportunities in Canada, our structured and interactive approach will help you build on what you already know and become a more independent French speaker.

What You'll Learn

Through engaging lessons, guided discussions, practical exercises and real-life scenarios, you'll strengthen essential French language skills, including:

• Speaking & Conversation: Express opinions, share experiences, participate in discussions and communicate more naturally in everyday situations.

• Listening & Comprehension: Improve your ability to understand spoken French, follow conversations and recognize commonly used expressions.

• Grammar & Sentence Structure: Strengthen your understanding of verb tenses, sentence construction, grammatical agreements and more complex language structures.

• Vocabulary Development: Expand your vocabulary for everyday life, professional environments, travel and social interactions.

• Reading & Writing: Develop stronger reading comprehension and practise writing clear, structured messages, emails and short texts.

• Practical Communication: Apply your knowledge through role-playing, discussions, presentations and interactive classroom activities.

Our goal is to help you move beyond basic French and develop the confidence to communicate more independently and effectively.
