We offer in-person classes with face-to-face teaching in our language school in the centre of Geneva. While we offer remote lessons online, we prefer the in-person approach and believe this style of learning is an irreplaceable experience.

Geneva is a city with a unique geography and holds links to many large enterprises, which means that many international languages are spoken at work and around the city. So you’ll find there are plenty of language schools, too! To find the best language courses, look for a school that offers a comprehensive, proven methodology and experienced tutors. Contact the My Linguistics team today for more.

Language courses in Geneva come at varying prices. At My Linguistics, prices range from 100 CHF / hour to 120 CHF / hour for individual and group classes. For group classes, this is just 30 CHF an hour per person.

Absolutely. We understand that sometimes you need to learn widely-used languages like French or English quickly, whether that’s for school, work, or simply daily use in Switzerland. Our intensive French courses are popular and have a high success rate among our students.

Additionally, for those who have very little time to learn English or maybe even need a refresher course, we recommend our intensive English courses.

Our classes are designed for individuals and companies looking to improve their language skills in French, English, or other languages. Whether you’re a beginner (A1, A2), intermediate, or advanced learner, our classes cater to your needs and goals. Our students include expatriates, professionals, and individuals seeking to enhance their employability, integrate into Geneva life, or prepare for language exams like the FIDE test. With our tailored approach, you can confidently navigate everyday life, achieve your language passport, and meet your personal or professional objectives.

The time it takes to learn French or English depends on your starting level, learning pace, and goals. At My Linguistics, our structured approach ensures rapid progress through real-life situations and active speaking practice. Beginners can typically progress to a A2 basic conversational level within 40 hours spread out over a few months. With personalized lesson plans, adaptable scheduling, and immersive learning techniques, we help learners build confidence and communication skills as efficiently as possible.

These levels follow the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), which measures language proficiency:

A1 (Beginner): Understands and uses basic phrases, introduces themselves, and interacts simply.

A2 (Elementary): Can handle everyday situations, ask and answer simple questions, and navigate familiar conversations.

B1 (Intermediate): Communicates more freely, discusses familiar topics, and manages work or social interactions.

B2 (Upper-Intermediate): Expresses ideas clearly, engages in more complex discussions, and understands detailed texts.

We offer in-person classes with face-to-face teaching in our language school in the centre of Geneva. While we offer remote lessons online, we prefer the in-person approach and believe this style of learning is an irreplaceable experience.
