Course Details

With around 200 million speakers across the world, French is one of the commonest - and hence most useful - languages. The International Organization of Francophonie has 56 member states and governments, with a primary objective to promote its teaching.

French is also the only language other than English spoken on five continents (as well as benefits from being one of the principal languages of the United Nations, the European Union, NATO, the WTO, and the International Olympic Committee). In total, French as a foreign language is the second most frequently taught language in the world after English.
