What is the cost of the course?
Due to the Covid-19 crisis, we are offering the course at a special price: €145 for 8 lessons (teaching material included) + €25 registration fee.
You can make the payment in 2 or 3 instalments.
How are the lessons going? What is your teaching approach?
We emphasize oral expression, the goal being to feel comfortable in conversation while giving you solid theoretical foundations.
The 1st part, the language lesson , is built on a subject common to both groups, for example: colors, numbers, clothes, apartment search, etc. You acquire vocabulary and grammar skills with a textbook.
In the 2nd part, the language exchange phase , you practice the vocabulary you have learned, half the time in French and the other half in Hebrew. This phase takes place in small groups, which allows each student to participate in the discussion in a relaxed atmosphere.
Learning a new language also comes with cultural learning. We will thus tackle topical subjects together, we will make you discover songs in French, films and Israeli or French series.
Language exchange is a great way to practice the language but also to meet new people.
We of course encourage you to continue the conversations and meetings beyond the course and once the Corona is over, we hope to make these even more real exchanges !
