Developed by Université Paris Saclay and aligned with the Common European Framework, this B1–B2 intermediate French course is aimed squarely at students planning to study at a French university. Its reach is striking — 721,650 learners have taken it, making it one of the most-enrolled French-language academic-preparation courses around.
Rather than general conversational French, this is discipline-specific: it builds the vocabulary, grammar, and oral comprehension needed to actually follow lectures and coursework in a French higher-education setting, alongside intercultural competence for adapting to French academic culture.
The intercultural framing is a real differentiator — it prepares you for the classroom, not just the conversation.
Skills you'll gain: Language Competency, Grammar, Language Learning, Intercultural Competence, Oral Comprehension, Multilingualism, Oral Expression, Cultural Diversity, Higher Education, Vocabulary, Writing, Cultural Sensitivity, Education and Training.
