    • Participate in joint governance and strategic leadership with the Executive Director and the Board to further EFBA’s mission
    • Accountable for accounting function, budget, and treasury

    EFBA is a nonprofit organization promoting bilingualism, specifically by teaching French in the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond.

    EFBA is a unique French school for children ages 5 to 18. Since French is a minority language in the Bay Area, we have created several programs aiming to offer sufficient exposure to the language to help children willingly and effortlessly become bilingual. We offer 3 interdependent programs throughout the year for all ages and levels: affordable after-school French classes in the Bay Area and online, excellent summer and winter programs, and engaging cultural outings. These programs are different in nature but share the same goal: to expose children to the French language and motivate them to learn through play-based methods adapted to their level.
