The French 30+ program is very comprehensive, offering you the opportunity to develop your knowledge of French grammar, enrich your vocabulary, practice oral expression, comprehension, pronunciation and written language practice.

Afternoon French lessons focus on a practical approach to the language, developing your knowledge of French cultural, social, political and economic life.

Testimonials

Alpha.b was the ideal school for my language stay in Nice. The charming villa has a good location in the heart of the town with modern equipment and a pretty garden. We worked in small classes with adult students of different nationalities, in a familial and friendly environment – an excellent team behind the scenes too! Always friendly and flexible, thank you very much!

I chose alpha.b for the guarantee that there would only be students of 30 years of age or older in my class. The lessons were well structured and lively. Our teacher, Jean-Philippe, was great! I could see that he loves teaching and I made lots of progress. Alpha.b offers lots of different activities after lessons. I went to a wine and cheese tasting which was both interesting and fun. I had a great time in Nice and I strongly recommend the 30+ course for everyone.
