Yes, Driss, There seem to be some good coaching in my country for French and Spanish Languages.
Kudos and Regards.
Being myself from Spain and speaking French (I work for a French bank), I think is great that you want to learn any of both languages as they can help you in your career, depending on where you want to work.
Here some data about both languages that you may find interesting to help you choose. First, I honestly think Spanish is easier than French. Grammar is very similar, but the pronunciation of French and writing are much harder.
SpanishPeople: About 450 million, and more than 500 million as first or second language.
Where: In Spain, in all ex-Spain's colonies (almost all Central and South America's countries, West US). Also in the US today there are around 50 million people who speaks Spanish as first or second language. In many European countries you can find people speaking Spanish.
BTW, forecast from the "Instituto Cervantes" says that by 2050 there will be more people who speaks Spanish in the US than in any other country in the world.
FrenchPeople: about 500 million.
Where: France, Belgium, Luxembourg, a region of Switzerland, Canada (Quebec) and many African countries. There are also some ex-colonies in Asia where some people speak French (Vietnam for example), and some French Pacific islands.
