Are you ready to dive into the enchanting world of languages, all while making new amis along the way?

But we’re not just any language group! Here, language learning extends beyond the ordinary classroom approach. How about mastering vocabulary while playing games or refining your listening skills during our dictation sessions?

Our love for languages goes beyond just words. Get ready to immerse yourself in vibrant cultures! We’ll explore the rich traditions of France, Italy, and Spain – you haven’t fully experienced these cultures until you’ve savored the stories and insights shared by our members. We’ll delve into the heart of these cultures through virtual film nights, cultural discussions, and online explorations of their vibrant traditions and histories!
And the best part? Our weekly lessons for various levels are crafted using materials based on the globally recognized CEFR standards, guiding you smoothly from beginner to advanced levels in French, Italian, and Spanish.
