Alliance Française, the French specialist, offers French tuition for:
- Small classes (8 to 10 students for the majority of lessons, 3 classes with 8 to 12) in North, Central and South Bristol and online
- Online classes
- Individuals
- Business and specific purposes
- Preparation for DELF DALF, TEF and TCF nationalité française
Our lessons are kept informal, motivating and above all professional – our teachers are French nationals, specifically trained and qualified to teach French to adults. Their experience and dedication have always been essential to the success of our courses. Over 65% of our students re-enrol for more French tuition.
