French is the second most widely taught foreign language. This is not surprising when you consider that around 175 million people worldwide speak French. And it is the official national language in 29 countries. In this country too, French is a prerequisite for some top job advertisements.
If you want to learn French - improve your French skills or start from scratch - there are many ways to do so. On the one hand, language schools offer tried and tested French courses of all kinds. These range from evening courses and diploma courses with distinction to business courses with various specializations (e.g. insurance, banking, IT, etc.). These courses are suitable if you can combine learning French with your job, like to learn in a structured and guided way, enjoy group work and appreciate face-to-face teaching.
On the other hand, there are also interesting offers with the promise that you can learn French online. Such online language courses are aimed specifically at busy business people who want to learn French at any time and from any location.
Language learning apps for smartphones and tablets for learning French are rather new and increasingly sophisticated. You can download some of these French apps to your device for free or at a fair price so that you can learn French on the go at any time.
Language trips and stays abroad in France or another of the 29 francophone countries are also still offered for learning French. As you are forced to use your newly acquired French vocabulary much more often on site, this type of foreign language learning is and remains the most efficient. Unfortunately, however, in many cases it is not compatible with professional commitments.
