The Teaching Assistant Program in France offers you the opportunity to work in France for 7 months, teaching English to French students of all ages. Most TAPIF program participants have just finished college and do the program during the school year after they graduate (to do this, you need to apply during the fall of your senior year of college). Applicants must have an intermediate proficiency in French. In order to be eligible to apply to TAPIF, you must have a French proficiency of B1 or higher on the CEFR Scale. At least one recommendation letter needs to be completed by a French professor or language evaluator from the Alliance Francaise, and/or your standardized French language test scores from the TCF, TEF, DELF, or DALF (if you did not take French courses in college or you do not have a French professor or language evaluator to complete your first letter of recommendation). Teaching assistants come from all fields of study. While we do have many French majors and minors in the program, we also have many assistants with backgrounds in other fields like education, international relations, political science, history, English, science, etc. Please visit the program's website for more information.
