Maximum 11 students per class: that is the secret of a pleasant atmosphere and efficient learning! Our method, based on the communicative aspect of the language, requires no textbooks, but rather provides a tailored-sheet system created by the teachers, adapted to the linguistic needs of the students. Without omitting written skills, we focus on conversation and its use in every day French. That’s why our teaching material is centered on actual French situations and enriched by numerous documents, including songs, newspaper and magazine articles, videos, games, etc. All of our students are placed in different groups depending on their level: true beginners, false beginners, lower intermediate, intermediate, upper intermediate and advanced. On the first day, an oral assessment will be carried out to determine the course/level that will best fit your level of spoken French. Gathered around a table, students are encouraged to actively participate and to stimulate their creativity with the assistance of presentations, drama techniques and debates. Pronunciation is corrected at all times during class, and homework is given to the students at the end of each lesson (correction is done on either an individual basis during class or in a group session at the beginning of the day’s class).

Imagine yourself at the top of the Eiffel Tower, or discovering the city from the bridge of a river boat. Sit down for a 3D projection which is even better than the real thing at the geode of the Museum of Science, pose beside the wax statue of Zinadine Zidane, stroll along the lively small streets of the Quartier Latin, applaud the Beaubourg street artists or admire the splendours of the Palace of Versailles and tell yourself you're not dreaming. Our destination of Paris-Igny promises you all this and much more besides. A charming small town to the south-west of the Parisian belt, nicknamed the garden town, Igny is an oasis of fresh air and greenery barely 25 minutes from the heart of the capital by RER (train). This favorable location allows us to offer as extraordinary a destination as Paris in full security and to combine language classes, sports and residence accommodation in a magnificent environment with the discovery of all the marvels of the city of lights.
