Learn French in Paris
“In the 30 years I’ve been doing this job, I’ve always sought to understand the reasons why foreign teens and adults want to learn to speak French. I believe that every language offers a unique perspective on the world and whilst English has long since gained global dominance, it seems to me that the benefit of learning French lies simply in the need not to conform to the single world view of the dominant language.“
By Alexandre Garcia,
Head of teaching at the Centre International d’Antibes since 1990
“With its sights always set on a fairer society, the revolutionary culture of France has made French an alternative to establishment thinking. As such, perhaps learning French in France carries with it an idea of resistance in the collective imagination of French students who are open enough to come share in our culture.
We thank them from the bottom of our hearts.“

There are many personal and professional reasons for learning French in France. French may be one of the most beautiful languages in the world and also one of the most widely spoken, with 200 million French-speakers across five continents. Moreover, French is one of the official languages of the UN, NATO, UNESCO and the European Union.
In general, it takes on average at least three months of immersion in France to understand or speak French fluently and six months to understand the implicit meaning and nuances of the language. Obviously, this varies according to your proficiency and the amount of work you put in. In order to learn French quickly, we recommend total immersion.
