New York City is one of the most linguistically diverse cities in the world. Nicknamed “The Melting Pot,” it is home to over 800 languages! French, as the 4th most spoken language in the U.S., is one of the most influential ones. As reported in 2017 by the Census Bureau, over 184,000 French speakers in New York City form a vibrant “Little France” in the Carroll Gardens area of Brooklyn. With its village-like ambiance, and little cafés and shops, the recent influx of French immigration to Brooklyn adds to an authentic French community. Taking French classes in New York, then, is the perfect way to better appreciate a fascinating culture right at your doorstep and to connect with the French-speaking community on another level.
Why Study French in New York City
Learn French for Work: Studying French will open doors to new careers and possibilities in the US and beyond, as it is the official language of over 29 countries. New York, home to the Headquarters of the UN, is central to international diplomacy and today, establishing strong international relations is more important than ever. Currently, the EU is the largest trading partner of the U.S., with over $735 billion exchanged in 2020, surpassing even China. Knowing French, the 3rd most widely known language in the EU is a valuable asset which can elevate your business and take it to an international level. By taking French lessons in New York you will be able to fully take advantage of the city’s diverse opportunities. Some companies that are hiring French speakers are Hearst Magazines, Messier Maris and Associse and even the United Nations. Considering that only 1 in 5 Americans claim to be bilingual, learning the French language will give you an edge which the majority lacks. And if you are interested in networking with French companies, get in contact with the French American Chamber of Commerce on Broadway St, an institution that organizes corporate events, invites high-level speakers and provides great networking opportunities.
Learn French for Social: If you are interested in making new friends with a similar interest in French, why not join one of the many MeetUp groups available in the city? The most popular one is French New York City, with almost 10,000 members. This group welcomes all levels of French speakers. Among their many activities, they host French parties, movie nights and book discussions. After the meeting, you can go to a French restaurant, such as La Grenouille on 52nd Street. There, you can order delicious dishes like Coq au vin or Escargots de Bourgogne using the pronunciation you learn with Language Trainers!
Learn French for Culture: New York has more French culture than you would expect, and definitely more than just the Washington Square Park Arch, whose design was based on the Arc de Triomphe. If you are interested in getting to know more about French culture, you should visit Albertine Books on 5th Avenue. This is one of the biggest French-language bookstores in the United States and the perfect place to pick up a book to practice reading in French. And if you are a cinema lover, you should attend the French Cinema Week that takes place every September. At this event, established in 2012, you will be able to enjoy French films from around the world. These movies are screened in French with English subtitles, which we are sure you are not going to need after taking a course with us!
