French is one of the most widely spoken countries in the world with over 200 million speakers, and is the only language apart from English which is taught in schools in every country. It’s spoken in five continents and is the language of the arts, so that ability to speak it will give students the chance to enjoy many works of theatre, literature, film, music and more which they may not have had access to beforehand. Students who can speak French will be able to communicate with a huge number of people all around the world and they’ll have a better experience when travelling because of this.

French speakers are in incredibly high demand in the professional world and a qualification in French language will create a lot of career opportunities for students in many different areas including travel, teaching, editing and publishing, and even governmental positions. They’ll also get the chance to work in various international companies.

Not only does learning French give students lots of opportunities in the business world, but it also gives them a better understanding of the English language. Whilst it is common belief that most of our English vocabulary is derived from Latin, we actually get the majority of our words from the French language. By learning to read, write and speak French, students will get a better understanding of the English language too, and they’ll be able to steadily improve their abilities in both.

One of the best ways to help your students learn French is to take them on a French language trip. Trips are incredibly helpful in teaching languages as instead of learning in the classroom where they are able to speak English to their friends and teacher if they want something, students will be completely immersed in the French language and culture and will have to use their French vocabulary in order to communicate with the locals. This will help them to develop their fluency and conversational skills. If you want to take your students on a French trip, you can start by looking into Normandie à la Carte’s French learning programs. These have been specially created so that students can learn in a safe, fun and friendly environment.

They’ll be able to enjoy learning French with much more freedom than in the classroom, and as a result they’ll become much more eager to learn even when back at school.
