Learn French Naturally in a Paradisiac Environment

French Lessons

With 20 hours of French class in total, you will be able to strengthen your French skills while discovering a paradisaical island.

  • Class groups will be created depending on student's level — beginners accepted
  • Certified FLE (French as a Foreign Language) teachers are part of the teaching team, in addition to Isabelle, a professional trainer for over 20 years.
  • The teaching relies on playful and interactive techniques, focused on daily life and Polynesia. French classes take place at Fare Om in the common spaces divided into several rooms.

If you do not know your level of French yet, a level assessment based on the CEFRL will be conducted at the start of the trip to gauge your level. Alternatively, you can conduct a test with us directly online.
