Intense French language courses?

Hello,

I have just moved to Mauritius and I'm interested in learning French. I have a bit of knowledge from High School but I really need to start from the basics. I have the hole month of September with a lot of free time and I would be keen on doing an intense course. After that, I would be happy to continue classes around my work schedule.

Do you have any suggestions?

Thank you.

PS. I am based around the West Coast

I know someone in Flic en Flac who can give you lessons. She is Mauritian but lived in France most of her life where she worked as a teacher. If you are interested, send me a message and I will give you her details.

Hi Gordon,

hope you are well !

Alliance Française has great references, I think the "Institut Français" also proposes french classes : http://www.institutfrancais.mu/fr/formation

Why not proposing a language exchange in our Mauritius classifieds section ? It is also a great way to learn and practice.

All the best,

Julien

Thank you everybody for your answers

So far I received a call from institutfrancais and they have a course starting in October lasting 3 months for beginners. Sounds great!

Best,
Gordon

English only on this section please.
You can find French by clicking the language box at the bottom of this page.
