We offer top quality French language training to adults, younger learners and professionals in the school, in companies and public authorities, teach extracurricular classes in junior and secondary schools, and organise language courses abroad .
ADULT COURSES
Our main aim is that our students can really communicate in French with fluency, accuracy and good pronunciation. All aspects of the language are worthy of attention but we place special emphasis on the natural use of French and on encouraging our students to communicate with confidence and independence. All of our teachers are native and highly qualified. We form homogenous groups of students according to our level system. Further details of courses in the Spanish version.
TERMLY COURSES
We offer courses of 3 and 6 hours per week between 8am and 9.30pm and 3 hour courses on Friday evenings or on Saturday mornings. All groups have a maximum of 10 students.
CONVERSATION COURSES
Our 3 hours a week conversation courses have a maximum of eight students per group. The teachers prepare a series of activities according to the needs, level and interests of each group with the aim of encouraging the active participation of all the students.
SUMMER COURSES
During the summer months we offer Intensive Courses and Conversation Classes. The intensive courses are ideal for those who need to make faster progress or take advantage of their summer holiday to make a jump forward in their level of French. The morning classes are 2½ hours a day from Monday to Friday from 9:30 to 12:00, whilst the afternoon classes are 3 hours a day from Monday to Thursday from 18:30 to 21:30.
We also offer conversation classes for low levels, geared to specifically help you acquire the necessary knowledge and fluency to confidently speak and understand basic everyday French conversation, for instance while on holiday. These classes are offered on Mondays and Wednesdays or on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 16:30 to 18:00. For more intensive study, students can enrol for 4 days a week.
COMPANY COURSES
The teaching of French to management and employees of companies and public authorities is a key activity of Hyland Language Centre, and is one of our most active and successful departments. Our clients clients range from multinationals and government bodies to small and medium sized firms.
CLOSED COURSES
Either in one-to-one classes or groups made up of personnel from the same company, these courses can be made-to-measure to the specific needs of the client, taking into account the recommendations of Hyland Language Centre.
These courses are adjusted to the client's requirements of length, frequency, timetable and location of the classes.
"OPEN" COURSES
The personnel of the company join existing groups in our centre. We offer general, conversation and specific needs courses all year round.
The teaching practice and feedback I received during the past month was valuable - now that I feel prepared I'm even more excited to teach in the 'real world'.
