Language exchange meetings with French students, activities on campus, cultural visits, trips, workshops and tasting sessions: a wide range of activities is organised every month to encourage the discovery of French culture, social interaction and the practice of French in authentic and friendly situations.

These activities are an integral part of the ILCF experience and allow students to discover Lyon and its region while developing their language skills in a real-life environment.

Before the start of each session, a mandatory placement test assessing both written and oral skills is conducted in order to assign students to groups of similar proficiency levels.
