French language training

Online French Course: Individual Language Training for Professionals & Private Clients

Do you want to communicate with full confidence with your French-speaking partners in France, Belgium or Africa, or do you finally want to be able to speak French effortlessly and fluently on holiday? French is the language of nuance, elegance and a specific business etiquette. Many people get stuck on the fast speaking pace, the tricky French pronunciation or the choice between vous and tu. Traditional group lessons in French are often far too slow, cover topics that don't match your goals, and force you into a fixed weekly schedule that simply doesn't fit a busy diary. And while a quick, anonymous app is fun for a few isolated words, it will never teach you to truly speak the language at a professional or confident level.

At Instituut Jeroen Bosch, we take a different approach to online language training. With our 100% online individual French training, you work one-on-one with a highly qualified, certified trainer on your personal learning goals. Whether you want to refresh your rusty school French or take your business French to boardroom level: with us you get maximum focus and immediate results, without the distraction of a group.

Why choose our one-on-one French course?

We combine the best of both worlds. As a label under The Square Mile (25 years of experience), we build on the rich history of Instituut Jeroen Bosch (a household name in Vught since 1968). This means you can rely on more than 75 years of teaching expertise, translated into a flexible, digital learning method for today.

  • Focused language training. Real results.: follow live French lessons wherever and whenever it suits you, fully digital and fitting neatly into your schedule for maximum impact.

  • Cedeo-certified: our exceptionally high customer satisfaction and professional approach are officially recognised.

  • Certified Trainers in the Netherlands: Learn from highly qualified trainers based in the Netherlands who truly understand where you’re starting from. Being based in the Netherlands makes scheduling effortless, while your trainer guides you through subtle pronunciation, false friends, and grammatical exceptions, with deep insight into French culture and business contexts.

The 50/50 formula: maximum results at a friendly price

  • 50% live online coaching: intensive one-on-one sessions with your personal French trainer.

  • 50% targeted self-study: practical, interactive exercises via our smart app and the material.

We measure your progress precisely according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), from level A1 all the way to C2. If you start from the basics (A1/A2), you'll notice that at the start you make big, motivating leaps at lightning speed. As you move towards the finer points of French (B2/C1) — such as advanced grammar, the right nuances in negotiations or stylish correspondence — the process demands more time, depth and sustained effort. Your personal motivation and the time you put into your self-study are the key to success here. That's why we don't give any hard guarantees on a specific end level, but we do offer you the very best one-on-one guidance.
