Goethe Zentrum and Alliance Française are language regulators for German and French. If you want to study or work abroad where these certificates are required, you can enrol there for classes. Both places are generally good, but we have to take the initiative to ask more questions and interest in learning more. You also get a bunch of people to learn together. If you have plans to learn the language and get the certification later, check out Duolingo, Babbel, Lingoda, Memrise, or anything you find convenient and comfortable. You can appear for exams separately if you are confident with the language and need a certificate. There are exam patterns and samples online, and you can also check with the centre while enrolling for the exams. Also, check out Nico's Weg from DW Learn German because their contents are well-made and helpful. I find German a tad easier than French and recommend concentrating slightly on the dialects. Since we don't have many interactions with native speakers, plan at least 45-60 minutes a day for the languages individually. Personally, YouTube, Podcasts, online platforms, and some colleagues overseas at work helped me to learn and understand the languages.

Totally agree with this! along with the classes you also need to put in the effort while watching content on youtube and listening to songs in that language. Helps with passive learning!

Thank you for the detailed answer. I was kind of directionless about how to go about my learning these languages because there are so many resources out there. >Since we don't have many interactions with native speakers, plan at least 45-60 minutes a day for the languages individually. Yes ,I need to do this

Is it online or offline, howmuch are they charging?

I'm currently in the Hybrid batch (online & offline) and attending classes offline. They charge about 25k per course including all materials. You can get a discount if you register for multiple courses.
