What our travellers are saying...

A fantastic week of refreshing my French language skills. The teacher was interesting and engaging, the group of students was just the right size and everyone participated, making the 4-hour classes whizz by. By the end I felt my confidence in speaking and understanding French had improved a lot.

A Robinson

Had a great time in Nice. Learning and speaking French. And relaxing in the wonderful city of Nice. The classes being conducted in French was definitely a big challenge. It definitely improved my listening and understanding of French. Although very few English translations but it tough.

H Shierlaw

Experience was wonderful. Class placement was very appropriate for my skill level. Very experienced teacher bought much variety to lessons. I particularly enjoyed interaction with the other multi-national students. Only issue is that it was a 4-day week (only 16 lessons).
