Language cafés

How do you learn to speak a language fluently? By practising, for example in a language café. A language café is a great place to practise speaking a foreign language in an informal setting with a native speaker. You can improve your language skills as well as meeting new people and getting a glimpse of a new culture! Below is an overview of language cafés and workshops in Groningen.

French

French teachers from the Institut Français des Pays-Bas offer French workshops to all French learners in the Netherlands who would like to further develop their oral skills, enrich their vocabulary, and deepen their knowledge of French-speaking cultures.

On Wednesdays, the Institut often organizes a ‘Mercredi francophone’, a moment of meeting and exchange in a friendly atmosphere that is open to all French learners in the Netherlands. Through various activities, participants are invited to express themselves in French in a fun and spontaneous context.
