“Not only is the standard of teaching high and the program offered stimulating, but the cultural mix is a sheer delight. It is a wonderful opportunity to become immersed in French culture, while sharing the experience with people from around the world.”
“Life changing, incredible! A new learning experience everyday. I gained an excellent understanding of French culture with my home-stay family, my classes, and my everyday interactions. All this while making friends with people all over the world with whom I will stay in contact for the rest of my life.”
