Bilingual schools across the US can now apply to host French teaching interns.

The Cultural Services of the French Embassy is now accepting applications for the 2024-25 French Teaching Intern Program, which enables bilingual schools in the US to receive exceptional teaching assistants from France for the school year.  

Our Assistants de langue/ French Interns are carefully selected annually through a merit-based application process and are evaluated by France Education International and the French Embassy.  

The Cultural Services of the French Embassy works with INTRAX to facilitate the visa application process for selected interns. To learn more about the FTI program, visit our web page. To catch a glimpse of the experiences of our current cohort, visit our FTI LinkedIN, and Instagram accounts.   

The application deadline is January 31st. This year, we have combined the application to receive interns with the FTI grant application process.  Click here to apply!
