Established in 1988, our partner-school is universally regarded as the gold standard for those wishing to learn French in Paris.

It is the fastest route, the sure-fire way to make progress, understand facial expressions, the yes that means no, the slang and swear words that you can get away with. In class, the teacher will put all of this in context.
To get some sunshine and enjoy an engaging vacation whilst meeting people of their generation from all around the world. Moreover, the South of France is a great place to be. Whilst they can be superficial, the locals in Provence are welcoming and a teaching team will be on hand to help you make progress in French whilst showing you the hotspots that are off the beaten track.
You want to go on vacation in France, you want to make progress in French but can’t stand the thought of taking a break from sport for a week or two? Opt for a French course in the morning and training with a professional sports coach in the afternoon. Just like the language, the training will be different you’ll have a great vacation.
Because with meditation, just like athletic training, you have to keep it up! Enjoy fun, dynamic teaching every morning with regular zen and relaxation sessions in the afternoon. You can take a vacation in France, learn French and enjoy yourself without letting your meditation habit slip.
You want to be able to throw some witty comments in French, learn the current trends of France and confidently communicate without having to care too much about strict grammar rules. You still need a classroom lesson but hours of guided conversations will be a shortcut to a more relaxed, natural style.
If you have the funds, taking one-to-one classes is the best way to close any specific gaps. An accent that is too strong, a lack of vocabulary for the workplace or the need to speak in public are areas in which one-to-one tuition is recommended.
