At the Alliance Française in Lyon, learning French is above all a cultural and human immersion experience. Our teachers are all FLE (French as a Foreign Language) certified and use a communicative, action-oriented teaching method. From day one, learners are encouraged to speak and exchange ideas in order to progress naturally in French.
As a higher education institution, the Alliance Française de Lyon has access to these Crous rooms for its international students. This allows students enrolled at the institution to benefit from official student accommodation during their studies.
- Reservations are monthly only
- Host families are often located close to the school, making it easy to get to classes and get around town by public transportation, bicycle, or on foot.
