How can I learn French?

Corporate executives and employees often need advanced training in the subtleties of the French language. While seemingly small in importance to many business people here in the U.S., these inaccuracies – especially on a repeat basis – can seriously undermine a good international business relationship. More than just a language training school or audiobook course, Elite French Tutoring is virtual training that goes above and beyond the norm.

We teach the WHYs and the WHEREFOREs of the language that mean so much to the French people. Speaking French properly, with the correct accentuation and intonation is important, of course. But conducting business in the French manner and using your language, accent and intonation respectfully and politely will win you and your company far more accolades and business from your ‘friends across the pond.'

” Improving your spoken French can lead to promotions and exciting new opportunities you never even knew existed. “

CORPORATE FRENCH CLASSES

French is the official language of 29 countries. According to Wikipedia, French has “about 76 million native speakers and about 235 million daily, fluent speakers and another 77 to 110 million secondary speakers who speak it as a second language…”This means that the return on investment (ROI) of improved French skills is something you will enjoy from virtually day one.

In March 2014, Forbes magazine reported that, according to a French corporate and investment bank, French could become the world’s most spoken language by 2050 owing to significant population growth in sub-Saharan Africa.

Bloomberg Businessweek ranked French the third most useful language for business, after English and Mandarin in an article in 2011.

I have worked with Andrei on my French for over a year. I have had more progress working with him then with any of several “well-regarded” apps. He is professional, knowledgeable, and very friendly. His “tutoring style” is contemporary, effective, and fun.

Simon is an excellent French tutor. I'm very very happy with they way my lessons are handled. He is very organized, and he really understands how to learn a language - he speaks 4 languages - and he has a real ability to share that method, and excite you to learn the language. I'm really enjoying these lessons, and learning a lot. I highly recommend him.

Ask John

6 months ago John was tasked with expanding the client portfolio of a major NYC law firm. With experience in the rise of eCommerce and a deep knowledge of the French cosmetics market, he saw an opportunity to help new brands crack the American market. The only problem was that there was a language barrier between most of his outreach team and his prospective client list. With a call to EFT, John worked with us to put in place a customized French language improvement program for two-dozen agents, paralegals, and custom service representatives. Our approach allowed John to identify talented individuals within his organization who had some degree of French knowledge and to then focus on giving them more confidence to express themselves with clients. The natural rapport that this enabled them to build led to the signing on of three blue-chip brands before the end of the years.

John’s journey began with our proven level assessment, so why shouldn’t your team’s?

Ask Kobrand Spirits

Last spring, NYC-based Kobrand Spirits aimed to expand their wine portfolio with exclusive selections but faced language barriers and cultural nuances when engaging with non-English speaking local producers in France, jeopardizing access to a niche market.

Solution: We implemented a 5-month tailored French program focusing on:

Business French: Negotiating contracts & Real-world meeting simulations.
French Wine Terminology: Mastering grape varietals, terroir, and tasting notes.
Cultural Etiquette: Building trust and rapport with French wine producers.

Result: With newfound language skills, the team established deeper connections with wine producers, securing exclusive partnerships and signing 4 contracts last year, curating a unique collection of high-quality French wines, and solidifying their market presence. EFT’s custom corporate French program was central to this high-value goal and lucrative outcome.
