Description

Students who are serious about their French language skills should consider this summer program in beautiful France. 4 hours of intensive language classes in French, along with other international students, will occupy students' mornings 5 times per week. In the afternoons, various activities invite students to engage in French life and culture, as well as explore the surrounding region during the summer months. Students may opt to enroll in 1 session or back-to-back summer sessions for twice the academic credit.

Highlights

Aix-en-Provence is celebrated by writers Emile Zola, Alphonse Daudet, and Marcel Pagnol; immortalized on the canvases of Paul Cezanne, Vincent Van Gogh, and Pablo Picasso; frequented by celebrities old and new, Brigitte Bardot, Grace Kelly, Brad and Angelina, and the list goes on. Strolling down the gorgeous Cours Mirabeau lined with towering plane trees, picturesque cafés filled with the fashionable 'Aixois,' and five of the 27 fountains located in what is known as the 'city of fountains,' you will immediately pick up on the heartbeat of Aix. A short promenade through the winding cobblestone streets leads you past the main square and market place to the 18th Century building where you will attend classes and truly immerse yourself in the French language. At the crossroads to all of the varying landscapes in Provence, you easily can visit the wild region of Camargue, the limestone hills and troglodyte farms of Les Alpilles, the majestic French Alps and the glitzy beaches of the French Riviera.
