French in Birmingham
As a global lingua franca of art, cuisine, dance and fashion, French is one of the top ten most spoken languages in the world, according to Ethnologue. There are more than 275 million speakers in the world, and about 3,000 of these people reside in the West Midlands, according to the 2011 United Kingdom census. With over 1,400 French speakers calling Birmingham home, learning this fascinating language will allow you to connect with this wonderful community, to make the most out of the many themed festivals organised in the city and to stand out against monolingual candidates when applying for the many French-influenced jobs.
Why Study French in Birmingham
For Culture: The United Kingdom’s second city has one of the most diverse and integrated mixes of cultures in the nation, including a substantial French influence. For example, there are popular restaurants, such as Cote Brasserie, Café Rouge, and Bistrot Pierre, serving delicious French cuisine, and a French-themed guided art tour at the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery. The tour is delivered in French, so take advantage of this opportunity to refine your listening skills after taking some lessons with us! Also, you can participate in many activities hosted by the University of Birmingham Francophile Society, a group that organises cultural, social and pedagogical events, from screening films to wine and cheese nights. Make the most out of this fascinating cultural experience by learning French with us at Language Trainers!
For Work: Birmingham also has an extensive international commercial sector that is partly fuelled by commerce between the United Kingdom and France. According to the French government’s Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs, there were €31 billion in exports and €28 billion in imports between the United Kingdom and France in 2017, which makes the United Kingdom France’s 6th largest customer. Also, with French being the third-most widely spoken language in the European Union, it is often considered to be important for conducting international business. Many international companies, such as The Wells Tobias Group’s, Mondelez and IPS Group, are headquartered in Birmingham and have offices across France. So, learning French in Birmingham may help to boost your career by providing you with new and advancement opportunities among the city’s bustling international commercial sector.
For Social and Travel: Those who would like to put their French into practice while meeting new people can join the Birmingham French Meetup. They get together about twice a month, keeping meetings varied by gathering at different locations and on different days of the week, so there should be something for everyone who would like to join. You can get all the details about the events from their calendar, so access their page and join them if you want to practise what you learn in your French course! And if you would like to travel to a French-speaking country and try your new skills by communicating with the locals, you will be happy to know that, since 2016, there are direct flights to many French cities, such as Paris, Toulouse, Nice, Lyon and more. A French adventure awaits you! Make the most out of your trip to this amazing country by starting your French course with Language Trainers today!
