About Our Adult French Classes

Our popular general French classes will allow you to develop efficiently all five skills: speaking, interacting, listening, reading and writing; and provides you with a wealth of intercultural insight. Through specific action-based objectives and interactive activities, you will progress from basic communication situations to more complex interactions, where you must organize your ideas in order to inform, explain, narrate, convince, argue, or speak in public. 

Our classes are taught in an immersive environment and based on the recommendations of the CEFR (the Common European Framework for Languages), a standard reference adopted by hundreds of educational systems worldwide.

Alliance Française Victoria uses a modern textbook for its group classes:  Edito from Didier, leaders in French as Second Language materials publishing. These are modern action-based methods with exciting topics and up-to-date documents.

Audio files, videos, and additional exercises/activities are available here https://didierfle-edito2022.fr/ . Your Pack Edito also comes with the digital version of the book available on https://didierfle.com/ma-bibliotheque/

Stay connected! Our group classes include online access to our platform AF-MyPortal where students can check their schedule of classes, check their homework, complete engaging activities, and assignments in French, and also where students can access or share documents, links, audio, and video with the whole class and the teacher, or even chat, ask for help, or post random thoughts ... in French!
