YOUTH CLASSES
Please note that the Alliances Françaises offer French as a foreign language course programs (in French ‘FLE’ for ‘Français Langue Etrangère’) and not as a native/second language course programs (in French ‘FLAM’ for ‘Français LAngue Maternelle’). This means that our youth students are non-francophones; they do not speak French at home or have not been following an immersion program. Please contact info@afseattle.org if you need more information.
Each youth class starts in September and takes place over three (3) terms: Fall, Winter, and Spring. For new students joining after the
start of the academic year, please take our placement test, then email
us
