About Accord

You'll learn French a few minutes' walk from the Eiffel Tower, with the Champs de Mars and the Seine both close by. The school has run French courses from this spot since 1988.

Classes stay small here, averaging 11 students and capped at 14, and the school holds five separate accreditations, including the "Qualité FLE" label. Its student community draws from more than 40 countries, and every course includes a pre-arrival placement test, course materials and a certificate at the end.

Is Accord right for you?

This school suits students who want a small, academically focused course in the heart of Paris, close to the Eiffel Tower. Students seeking a large, campus-style school should look elsewhere.

A good fit if you…

  • Prefer studying right in central Paris
  • Want small, personalised class sizes
  • Enjoy a culturally immersive, international atmosphere
  • Value a long-established, academically focused school

Keep in mind…

  • Compact school rather than a large campus
  • Busier during peak season

What classes are like at Accord

Standard group lessons run each weekday morning from 09:00 to 13:00, with full programmes ranging from 15 to 35 hours a week depending on the course you choose. If your course includes afternoon hours, those sessions focus on oral communication, grammar and written French, or exam preparation. In summer, the afternoon programme also runs as an alternative for students not on the morning semi-intensive course. Before you arrive, a self-assessment form and a written test place you into one of six levels, from complete beginner to advanced, so your first lesson matches your ability from day one.
