Highly recommended
May 05, 2026by: Sebastián MoyaProgram: Learn French in Paris Catholic University - ILCF Paris
I chose the ILCF to study French because of its outstanding professors, the qualifications it offers, and its location in a neighborhood I highly recommend to anyone wanting to immerse themselves in Parisian life. All my professors were always committed to helping me reach my full potential and provided me with the tools I needed to adapt and thrive in my life in France.

Loved the experience!

My name is Viktoriia, I’m 19 years old, and I’m from Ukraine. I studied at the ILCF for two semesters, and I absolutely loved the experience. The professors were incredibly kind and helped me improve so much. Thanks to them, I now speak with much more confidence. I also made amazing friends from all over the world. I’m truly grateful to the ILCF—it helped me take a big step toward my dream of attending university in France.

Great teachers!

What I particularly appreciate about ICP is the quality of the teaching. Thanks to the carefully prepared methods of each professor, my French level has improved significantly over the past two years. Additionally, ICP is a place where you can make wonderful friends, regardless of age, background, or nationality—you never feel isolated!
