GENERAL INFORMATION

For each of these age groups, we offer three classes of different levels: beginner, intermediate and advanced.

In order to advance to the next level, your child must have completed 8 sessions of the previous level.

- The Alliance Française de Philadelphie reserves the right to cancel classes and change teachers if necessary. Courses are typically cancelled due to insufficient enrollment. If your child's course is cancelled, you will be notified by telephone or email and given the option to transfer to another class, to receive a tuition credit or to receive a full refund -

Young children (5-7 yo)
- beginner, intermediate, advanced - 

45 min. | on Zoom

This class is designed for non-readers or young readers. The lessons are therefore approached through playful activities that encourage oral expression and comprehension as well as the learning of vocabulary words and expressions.


Children (8-10 yo)
- beginner, intermediate, advanced - 

45 min. | on Zoom

Our teaching method is based on the CAP SUR, a method used all over the world in many schools... and Alliances Françaises! CAP SUR is a dynamic French method with lots of creative activities and linguistic tools tailored for kids between 7 and 10 years old, known to have proved its worth with children for whom French is a foreign language! Throughout the pages, students discover the adventures of the Cousteau family as they travel around the world.


Teenagers (11 yo +)
- beginner, intermediate, advanced - 

1 h. | on Zoom

Whether your child is a beginner or already initiated in French, we offer classes for all levels. Our teachers use methods adapted to this age group
such as CAP SUR 3,  Adosphere,  À la Une...
