If you are looking to learn a new language that can benefit your life in many aspects (professional, cultural, social, or any other), French is a brilliant choice, especially if you are living in Cambridge. For instance, you don’t have to travel to France to experience the French culture or to find native speakers with whom to practice. Instead, you can join the many events organised by the associations like the Cambridge University French Society or the Alliance Française on Red Cross Lane. This institution aims to promote cultural and educational exchanges between France and Cambridge, organising interesting events and activities such as book clubs and movie nights which screen the best French cinema in its original language.
Those who would like to take their oral skills to the next level while having some fun can join exchange groups like Tandem, where they’ll find hundreds of people interested in practising their French over coffee. You just have to agree on a face-to-face or virtual meeting with your new friends and start using the skills you learn with us at Listen & Learn!
If you are ready to get started, get in touch with us and we will help you decide on the best type of course for you. We partner with world-class instructors who are native speakers of the language they teach. Thus, you’ll learn the most important formal aspects of French while also acquiring crucial elements of communication not present in coursebooks, such as slang or colloquial expressions. Send us a quick enquiry with your needs and requirements today and one of our team members will answer all your questions within 24 hours.
This set of French tutorials are less specific and more targeted for those who want to get a range of different things from learning French. Even though all novice students will cover survival French: as well as French to visit somewhere abroad to make solid contacts with the locals, what do you do from there? It depends on your needs. Those who have benefited from these lessons have been those moving or investing overseas, spouses of overseas nationals, people who love to travel all over the world, those interested in French culture and those who just want to pass a specific examination in French.

French lessons of this type are aimed towards those that need to learn French to aid them with their employment. For those just starting out, it is integral to learn basic greetings and business etiquette. Reading and writing can be adopted once the simple precepts are out of the way. Success has come from students who are involved in the import/export business, international negotiations and acquisitions, those seeking jobs in multinational companies and those working with foreign colleagues, academia and bureaucracy. Even our most basic lesson for beginners will have the student finishing the lesson with basic telephone/e-mail skills in French, as well as survival French should a short stay in the country is needed.

Games are great instruments to help children acquire a new language while having fun. Luckily, the internet is full of websites that offer language games for free, such as Hello World. This site is full of interactive activities and songs that help kids learn basic French vocabulary, such as the alphabet, numbers, shapes and colours. Most of the games are classical ones, like tic tac toe, listen and match, etc. There is also a section that features expressions, like greetings, thanking others or asking for food, where children can listen to recordings of real conversations and repeat them while completing exercises.
