Embark on a New Adventure

Discover the United States by teaching French in Louisiana in one of our state’s French immersion programs. Immersion represents the state’s efforts to build a new generation of Louisianans who honor the state’s linguistic past and are competitive in an increasingly globalized world. The International Associate Teacher Program is a way for CODOFIL to recruit French teachers from countries like France and Canada who are placed throughout Louisiana in small towns like Cecilia or in large cities like the world famous New Orleans.
