Online and on campus french classes

At Alliance française de Karachi, learning French isn’t about cramming textbooks. We know that a language is a living thing. That’s why our classes aim to create an immersive environment where you can experience the French language through conversations, discussions, songs, radio, news articles, poetry, events, games and more. You’ll also learn about French culture and history. Classes are small by design and are led by our talented French professors, all seasoned and native speakers. See what our students have to say about their experiences. Our classes were even featured in the news!

how to choose your class

  1. Choose YOUR leveL

    French is structured into 6 internationally recognised levels:

    A1 – A2 – B1 – B2 – C1 – C2

    Each level represents a step in your language journey, from beginner to advanced proficiency.

    • A1 & A2 focus on building strong foundations in everyday communication.

    • B1 & B2 develop independence, fluency, and confidence in professional and academic contexts.

    • C1 & C2 are advanced levels aimed at near-native mastery.

    🔎 Not sure about your level?

    • Complete beginners can start directly at A1 (no placement test needed).

    • If you have studied French before, we recommend taking a free placement test to find the level that suits you best.
