Alliance française Paris Ile-de-France: Paris - French Language and Culture Courses

The Alliance Française in Paris has been spreading French language and Francophone culture for more than a century. A private higher education establishment and recognised training body, the Alliance Française Paris Ile-de-France is, above all, a not-for-profit organisation under the French law of 1901. It has built its actions and reputation on the quality of its teaching and training programmes, in a multicultural environment which promotes exchanges, respect and conviviality.

We are, first and foremost, a "Grande Ecole for the teaching of French as a foreign language (FLE)". Receiving almost 12,000 students each year, of 160 different nationalities, we are the leading centre of this type in France, and also one of the oldest, as the Alliance Française has been offering classes in Paris since 1919.
