Location
Studying French amongst the history, culture and cosmopolitan life of Paris is truly an experience to remember! The language school in Paris is right in the heart of the city.
The school is situated in the midst of the Latin Quarter, opposite Notre Dame Cathedral, two minutes walking distance from the Sorbonne, the Pantheon and the Luxembourg garden in one of the liveliest and most culturally active neighbourhoods of the city. Balzac, Jean-Paul Sartre, Jacques Prévert, Serge Gainsbourg, are just some of the great artists and thinkers linked to this beautiful and unique area of Paris. The school's Notre-Dame neighbourhood offers extensive possibilities to discover Paris, learn its history, experience the French way of life and to become a true Parisian in this historical and fascinating district.
You will find a vibrant, young and dynamic atmosphere at the school, which has various onsite student facilities such as a student lounge with drinks, snacks and vending machines, free WiFi access, computer area and private gardens.
Students will be allocated to a class depending on the results of their level test prior to their arrival.
Language Course
The course includes 25 lessons per week; 20 general French lessons covering grammar, listening, speaking and vocabulary with a further 5 1:1 classes to enable students to focus on specific texts or specific areas of their French A Level skills. The content of these lessons can be agreed in advance in discussion between you and your tutor.
Optional Social and Cultural Programme
The school offers a range of activities during the week, such as a film club, meal out at a local restaurant and excursions to the many cultural and historic sights and venues in Paris. Some of the activities incur an extra cost (payable on the week of your stay directly to the school) however, many of the activities in Paris are free. All activities are optional.
Accommodation
For students wanting to completely immerse themselves in the French language and culture we recommend that you stay with one of our carefully selected French host families. They will not only introduce you to the French way of life and help you practise the French language but will also give you a taste of local and delicious regional specialities. The host families are situated near to the school and provide half board accommodation (breakfast & evening meal) from the Sunday before your course starts to the Saturday after it finishes. Subject to availability, an extra day on one side of your trip may be available on request to facilitate flight dates. A surcharge is payable for any extra nights.
You can read more about what it means to stay with a host family in our Host Family Guide.
Centrally located residence accommodation with private bathroom and shared kitchen is available for students aged 18+.
