Alpha.b is a French Language School specialised in teaching French to foreigners. Our school is open year-round and our French courses are designed for all language levels.
Situated in the heart of Nice, the capital of the French Riviera, Alpha.b Institut Linguistique has chosen a lovely mansion from the early beginning of the century. Surrounded by its own garden, where you will be able to relax at break times, the modern, well-equipped Centre (Internet access, e-mail, fax, WI-FI connection, amenities for handicapped...) is right next to local shops, the beaches and the old town.
During high season, July and August, our second summer centre is situated in proximity to the Roman Arenas and the Matisse and Chagall museums. A charming place with similar facilities.
