French Lessons in Edinburgh. Learn French

Not everyone wants to learn French for the same reason so why should they learn in the same way? At Language Trainers we teach our students in the way which suits them. You can tailor your classes to give you the level of knowledge you need. More importantly, you don't need to put up with timetables and locations which don't suit you. Our clients decide themselves where and when they receive their classes.

One-to-one General/Business

French Course in Edinburgh

Regardless of whether you want to learn for work reasons or for personal use you will enjoy the process with us and soon move onto a level you are happy with.

General French courses will let you engage in polite and interesting conversations with native French speakers. They are ideal for preparing you for short visits to countries where French is spoken. If you are looking towards a career in a foreign country then a Business French course could be just what you need. The thought of working abroad will hold a lot less fear for you after your classes.


Our French courses would not be fixed to a specific curriculum, however. You know the specifics of what you will need from your new language, and all you need do is tell your teacher. Perhaps if you are taking a Business course, you may want to focus more on French telephone or email skills, or a specific vocabulary for your line of work. The great thing about our General courses is that the syllabus is not set in stone. Whatever aspect of the language that you need to know can be added with no problem.


Typical Business course students include those in international import/export, those hoping to gain acquisitions in foreign countries, those within multinational corporations, and people who do business with foreign institutions and governments. General courses in French suit those hoping to emigrate to foreign shores, people with a view to travel to countries where French is the vernacular tongue, those with a keen interest in French culture and language, and people with foreign spouses.
