Flexible Formats Designed for You
Face-to-face, remote, hybrid, individual or group: choose the format that fits your life.
Every learner has a different daily routine. A constantly travelling executive does not face the same constraints as an employee based in one office. A freelancer who manages their own schedule does not learn under the same conditions as a team member whose diary is dictated by meetings.
At Linguaphone, we have designed our training formats to adapt to you — not the other way around. Remote, face-to-face, or hybrid; individual or group; intensive or steady; weekdays, evenings, or Saturdays. The choice is yours.

Remote Training: Learn from Anywhere
Remote training has become the obvious choice for many learners. It eliminates travel constraints, reduces time lost in transit, and allows training to be integrated into a busy schedule with maximum flexibility.
At Linguaphone, remote training does not mean second-rate training. Our video-conference sessions deliver exactly the same pedagogical quality as face-to-face sessions: a dedicated native-speaking trainer, real-time interaction, shared on-screen materials, practical exercises, and immediate feedback.
E-learning modules complement the live sessions, allowing you to work independently on vocabulary, grammar, and comprehension at your own pace and according to your availability. Got 15 minutes between meetings? That is enough for a targeted micro-lesson.
Face-to-Face Training: Total Immersion
For some learners, nothing replaces face-to-face training. The energy of a training room, direct contact with the trainer, the absence of digital distractions — all elements that foster maximum concentration and immersion.
Linguaphone offers face-to-face training at its own premises or directly at client companies. Sessions are designed to maximise learner speaking time: role-plays, professional simulations, structured debates. The trainer is physically present to correct pronunciation, read body language, and create a learning dynamic that cannot be replicated through a screen.
Face-to-face is particularly recommended for intensive programmes, preparation for specific events (international conference, job interview, negotiation), and groups wishing to build team cohesion around a shared language project.
Hybrid and Blended: The Best Compromise
The hybrid format (or blended learning) combines the advantages of remote and face-to-face training in an integrated programme. It is the most popular format among our learners, offering both digital flexibility and the richness of live interaction.
A typical hybrid programme at Linguaphone alternates:
- Live sessions (video conference or face-to-face) for oral practice and personalised coaching
- E-learning modules for self-paced acquisition of fundamentals
- Application exercises between sessions to consolidate learning
This alternation creates a sustained yet realistic learning rhythm that integrates naturally into the learner's daily life without causing overload or frustration.
Individual or Group: Choosing Your Dynamic
Individual lessons offer fully personalised support: 100% of the time is devoted to your specific needs. The trainer adapts the content, pace, and difficulty level in real time. This is the ideal format for rapid progress, precise objectives, and profiles that prefer an intimate learning setting.
Group lessons bring a different but equally valuable dynamic: the stimulus of the group, diverse perspectives, multi-party conversation practice, and simulation of meetings or multi-party negotiations. Groups consist of 4 to 8 learners of comparable level, ensuring everyone participates actively.
Some learners combine both: individual lessons for specific technical skills, group lessons for conversational practice and oral confidence. Your pedagogical consultant helps you find the optimal combination.
Intensive or Steady: Adapting the Pace
An expatriate leaving in three months does not have the same pacing needs as an executive wishing to progress gradually over a year. Linguaphone offers intensive programmes (several hours per day or per week) and steady programmes (one to two sessions per week) to suit every situation.
Intensive formats are particularly effective for short-term goals: certification preparation, starting a new role abroad, or participating in a multilingual event. They deploy concentrated teaching resources for maximum impact in a limited time.
Steady formats are ideal for lasting learning: regularity builds habits, long-term memory is consolidated, and progress becomes deeply rooted. The pace can be adjusted during the programme according to your availability and progression.
