  • Description

    This French activity holiday program offers the perfect mix of French lessons and French culture, including exposure to cuisine, history, art, fashion and cinema. The program comprises 20 lessons and three half-day excursions to surrounding places of interest per week.

    Course:

    The objective of this French course in France is to work on practicing language skills in communicative contexts. On the first Monday of the program, you will take both an oral and written placement test to determine which class you will be placed in. If you have no previous experience with the French language, you typically don't have to take this test and will automatically be placed in the beginner class. Classes will take place between 9:00 am and 12:15 pm, Monday to Friday, including a short 15 minute break during which light refreshments will be served.

    Teachers:

    Teachers in this French holiday activity course are native French speakers and are qualified to teach French as a second language. They bring a wealth of experience and enthusiasm to the classroom and design each lesson to focus on speaking and listening skills with appropriate attention paid to reading and writing.

  • Highlights

    This lively university city in the south of France, filled with an infectious atmosphere and year-round sunshine, has something to offer all tastes. The beautiful and historic old town has a dedicated pedestrian area filled with trendy shops and open-air cafés. A short walk away is the modern and impressive Antigone area with an Olympic-size swimming pool and stunning architecture. Just a short tram ride away from the main square is the Odysseum fun park with an ice-skating rink, aquarium, planetarium, bowling-alley and multiplex cinema. Let's not forget the sandy beaches and warm waters of the Mediterranean accessible by tram. And Paris is only one hour away by plane.
