Bébé Alliance (1 to 4 years old)

“Exposing your child to a second language boosts brain power, vocabulary, and self esteem.” Child Magazine, L. Dumas, “Learning a Second Language”.

At the Alliance Française de Denver, we enhance children’s natural ability to learn language by providing a structured routine that is both dynamic and interactive. Young children will enjoy learning French through games, songs, storytelling, sensory experiences, and various other activities. Parents of 1 to 2 year olds are welcome to attend and share in the joys of discovering this beautiful language with their child.

Smart Steps to French (5 to 12 years old)

A leader in teaching French to adults, the Alliance Française applies the same expertise to children’s classes.Leading Alliance Française chapters in the United States teamed up with French experts to design French curricula and activities specifically catered to the needs and interests of little – and not so little – ones

Whereas most programs rely on repetitive workshops with limited material, the Alliance Française offers children the possibility of evolving through 3 levels (complete beginners to advanced) for each of 4 age groups. Unlimited options are yours to discover, so you can shape your child’s experience with the help of true specialists.
Striking balance between fun and serious, the extensive program offers rigorous academic objectives while entertaining children with games, activities, and what the Alliance Française is probably the most famous for… cultural immersion.

After-School French

The Alliance Française de Denver offers after-school programs for elementary through high school children and teens. Several schools in the Denver area participate in this program. Children who learn foreign languages at a young age have a considerable advantage in their future education and careers. Through the Alliance Française, children learn French taught by a highly qualified and native French-speaking Alliance Française instructor. The classes use a variety of activities to immerse the children in the French language through art, songs, theater, role-playing, etc.

In order to begin an after-school program to take place at your school, the Alliance Française requires a minimum of 6 students per group. Classes can be arranged for any day or time. Please contact the Alliance Française at 303-831-0304 if you would like to begin an after-school program at your school.
