Overview
Affiliated with the University of Savoie since 1999, CILFA is located in Annecy-le-Vieux, between lake and mountains, in the heart of the French Alps, less than 40 km from Geneva.
Regardless of nationality or level of French, CILFA offers courses and outside activities in French as a Foreign Language. Minimum age : 17.
French courses in groups comprised of no more than 12 students are taught by certified instructors who are all used to teaching French as a foreign language. The small student-to-instructor ratio encourages individualized instruction so that each student can improve rapidly according to her/his needs and desires. Instruction is focused upon oral and written skills, with particular emphasis on communication.
All our courses are based on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. CILFA offers courses all year to A1, A2, B1 and B2 levels. (CI and C2 levels on demand). CILFA is the only official DELF / DALF exam center of Haute-Savoie (Annecy's area).
Outside activities are organised by CILFA’s teachers.
They serve to enrich students’ classroom experience by giving them exposure to the surrounding attractions of Annecy. They provide new opportunities for students to practice their French language in various settings.
The teacher in charge of the activity makes sure that every student actively participates in French.
During the university year, a two-hour activity is organised every week. In the summer, the number of activities is larger: 5 hours a week.
