TECH offers an achievable challenge, using the best methodology: personalized language classes. Most French language schools and academies offer traditional teaching, based on the repetition of simple linguistic structures with no connection to properly structured content or concrete skills. However, teachers and psychologists believe that the best way to stimulate language learning is not to subject the learner to formalized, linear learning - for example, with rote learning - but rather, to encourage imagination and learning through sensory exploration in order to be able to understand and interpret what is around us.

This way, the brain works and learns a language in the most natural way possible, in the same way that we learned our mother tongue. Thus, TECH offers you French B1 Level Conversation Classes with university professors and native speakers who will provide you with common and specific communicative situations, 100% online and in a personalized way.
