In-person classroom observation internship

3 jours matin B2 lundi au vendredi 9h – 13h 8h/mois

The classroom observation course is aimed at teachers and future teachers wishing to teach French as a foreign language using concrete, contextualized classroom practices.

This course is part of the Alliance Française de Lyon’s FLE teacher training program, and gives participants the opportunity to observe classes run by experienced French as a foreign language tutor-trainers.

By attending authentic sessions, particularly those incorporating FASP (Français au sens propre) files, participants develop a detailed understanding of current teaching practices and reinforce their professional skills through direct observation.
