TitleFrench Programs
BodyUniversité Laval, whose experience in teaching French goes as far back as 1937, is situated in beautiful Quebec City at the crossroads of the French-speaking global community. It offers you the best of both worlds : European charm and North American efficiency. Its campus is home to 37,000 students, including some 2,000 Canadian and foreign students registering annually in French as a Foreign or Second Language.

The emphasis at the École des langues vivantes is on quality teaching with a focus on authenticity. Modern teaching methods prepare you for internationally recognized tests such as the Oral Proficiency Interview-Certificate of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL)* and the Test de français international (TFI). In class, stress in placed on real communicative situations, thus encouraging the use of French outside the classroom.
