The language space is a service of the central library created to facilitate dialogue and integration in an international and multicultural context. It offers a variety of activities for learning or practicing one or more languages. Conversation groups and workshops in French as a foreign language complete the offer.
I’d like to encourage anyone who wants to improve their level of French to go to the language centre. I’ve learnt a lot there, not only thanks to the self-study stations but also and above all in the conversation groups, which are the best place to get to know other residents and to lose your fear of speaking in French.
