A unique school designed to help you discover and master the cultural references shared by all French people.

Understand and master French culture

Discover the cultural references that all French people learn, from elementary school to higher education.

Feel at ease in everyday situations and social events.

Improve your pronunciation and identify the subtleties of the French language.

Know how to run a business meeting.

Master the French method of argumentation to lead a debate.

Defend your case before French authorities.

Be more confident when taking the tests to obtain your Diploma in the French Language (DALF).

Finally, a school that allows you to immerse yourself in French culture and society!

The programs are very varied (history, theater, politics, music… etc.). Don’t worry at all about your level of French: there is no criticism, the atmosphere is always very very friendly. It’s a real joy of every weekend for me.

Course “French Society”

The dynamics of the productions written during the course are interesting since each student can move forward at his or her own speed. The teacher is nice and has a remarkable mastery of the French language and even good knowledge of English and other languages: I highly recommend her classes.

Marco P.

Course “Writing Workshop”

I highly recommend the “Rive droite, rive gauche” course. With a lot of professionalism and dynamism, the teacher manages to combine in a playful way the history and culture of France with learning and perfecting the French language.
