  • Our teacher creates a fun learning environment where we all feel safe to try without worrying about making a mistake. This is really important, and really rare.

  • I enjoy AFS for its wonderful professors, imaginative teaching and the company of my fellow students.

  • The ability to learn just as effectively online compared to face to face has been the highlight of my experience so far.

  • All the teachers I've had have been supportive of my learning through all the ups and downs of learning a second language

  • Having recently retired from full-time work, studying French at Alliance Française provided the perfect solution as to what to do next.
