Drawing on the diverse experiences of the members of our teaching team, at La Maison des Langues, we combine several approaches to get the best out of them and provide a tailor-made solution for each person. Thus, we are talking about a personalized hybrid learning environment.

  • Individual diagnosis (strengths, weaknesses, objectives etc depending on the time available…)
  • Face-to-face, distance or hybrid courses: focused on oral production with a qualified and experienced trainer (reverse class system, reception activities are encouraged outside of attendance time).
  • Distance LearningDevice, in support of face-to-face courses
  • Resource Center: access to paper and digital media during the association's opening hours, with the presence of a qualified person who can guide the trainee in his research/work independently.
  • Individual coaching in addition to semi-group lessons: throughout the training, the trainee benefits from professional advice to enable him to make the most of his free time.
