My experience at France Langue was memorable and improved my French significantly. I was enrolled in France Langue Paris for two months, and everything about it was amazing. I met so many new friends from different places, and each week there are usually some new students in class, so it's always easy to meet new people! My class had people of all ages. I had Denis as my instructor, and he always had a vibrant personality that made everyone in the class feel welcomed and comfortable. The whole class was in french, which could be challenging at first, but the teacher always gives help when needed, and it helps you get better at conversation. Also, the location of the classes was so beautiful and convenient, next to the many metro and bus stops. Also after every class, it's always easy to find a buddy to go visit a museum or cafe with!
Overall, I loved my time at France Langue and thought it was such a valuable experience.

I had a great experience with this school! The day was balanced between in-class learning and fun excursions around Nice and beyond, so I was constantly learning useful French, both formally and informally.
The teachers and director are accessible, friendly, knowledgeable, helpful. My class was small so the teachers adapted the course material to our interests and provided a mix of activities each day. There are also fruit trees out front if you want a snack!

Thé teachers are excellent and patient. You can really realize that you are progressing in French, you feel safe and without fear of making mistakes.
The only drawback is that the administration is very bad! communicate details at the last minute.

I thoroughly enjoy my classes with France Langue. Teachers, students, student care team and the teaching methods ( exercises, conversations, listening activities) all create the perfect online learning experience. I started with 6 weeks and now I've decided to renew for another 6 weeks because I learn to much. Plus as an added bonus, you can join 2 thématiques sessions to complement your online learning. It is my online immersion in french culture every week. 😀

Thought it was miserable. Not really a lesson other than in how not to teach a language.

I really enjoyed my stay in Biarritz. My host family, Trinni Duffart, in Bidart was exceptionally welcoming and my stay was fantastic. I enjoyed the classes and felt that the teachers, both Laurence and Carol in Birattz were very engaging. I would say however, that the difficulty that I had in accessing Teams was a bit frustrating, in getting set up on the system and I spent far too long struggling with the IT.. That said, once set up I enjoyed the interaction and found Karin very professional. I understand that Covid has been a huge problem for us all and understand that you were only able to provide a small number of classes but I felt that my 4th and final week was way above my ability at this stage and despite the teacher making every efford, I was unable to participate as I would have liked. A lower level, had it been available, would have benefitted me more

I had a really good week at France Langue. The location of the school is excellent, just across the river from Notre Dame Cathedral. I was placed in a class of the right level, and found the classes enjoyable and challenging. We studied French through various types of activity. The teacher was patient and helpful, and gave us useful corrections on our pronunciation, grammar and vocabulary in a way that was supportive and helped us to work towards a high standard of French.
Students have a meeting with a member of the support team every week they are at the school to make sure they are having a good stay in Paris, and to help with any problems. I thought this was a valuable part of the student care offered by the school.
I would recommend this school.

My experience with France Lanque was very positive. The staff and teachers were very helpful and supportive and helped with all my technical issues.
I didnt realise that the afternoon courses were being delivered on line and as I hadn't brought a laptop I could not avail of these sessions.
However, I can now join the sessions I missed this week from home. A special thanks to Lea who assisted me greatly with technical issues

4 consecutive weeks at this French language school were more than unforgettable, rewarding and full of pleasant surprises such as additional cultural activities. I can clearly see progress in my written and spoken French. I am sincerely grateful to the FL school team, you are the best!

Raphael is a great teacher. He did a wonderful job challenging the students who were each at different levels of French. Raphael is very knowledgeable of Lyon and French instruction. Also very flexible.
I appreciate France Langue and its program and wish it continued success.

I had a great time in Paris and was able to improve my French in a short time. Thanks to the great team, great school and incredibly well located.

France Langue is absolutely amazing in terms of the courses they're providing! I took part to the "Stage pour les professeurs" in Nice and it was absolutely enriching and perfectly organized! I recommend this school for all people who are open minded and willing to learn a lot in a short time! Now I feel well prepared to become a French teacher in Germany! Thank you for this amazing experience!!!

The classes were adapted to each student and there was time spent on each of us individually, which was really helpful for the ones that had more doubts. I really liked the classes being focused on us working in groups so we shared our knowledge and helped each other.

I had a wonderful experience at the France Langue School in Nice! If you Want to learn french and speak / listen to ONLY french - this is for you!
I chose a week in the intensive course with lessons in the classroom as well as online, it worked super well for me.
The teachers were so kind and also very attentive to the students, if we didn’t understand a question, an assignment etc.
The atmosphere at the School was relaxed, with students of all ages and nationality.
I chose to stay with a host family, which helped me immensively in learning the language.
All in all - I Can truly recommend France Langue to anyone who wants to learn french - beginner as well as intermediate :)

Great online lessons.
Know the teacher from on-site classes in Nice.
Remote is not the same as face-to-face, but still very helpful and effective.

Amazing experience - from the staff to the teaching to the facilities.

We have booked a language course for my daughter in Biarritz in combination with surfing lessons in the afternoon. No background information was made available on the school, or the curriculum, lunches, etc. On the first day my daughter was finding it very difficult to find out the school’s address due to the fact that only old address was stated on the internet. Having finally found the school address (only our native speaking friends could assist in finding the new one) the experience continued to be disappointing: my daughter was accused of not having booked for her surfing lessons which she tried to visit - in fact she was taken out from the bus in front of all the others - and had to stay in school on her own in the afternoon. She could finally prove with emails that we have booked and paid for it. Whilst we tried to clarify via my daughter’s mobile phone, we have been told that someone “above them” will call us back. In fact we never received a call. A couple of days later I have tried to call the school in Biarritz and the head organisation in Paris. Both telephone lines where not answered and my messages are still not answered 24 hours later.
Summing up: definitely a "no-go" school for non-native speakers. I would not recommend the "adventure" for foreigners.

I have been very pleased with my France Langue course online since January 1, 2021. I feel I have learned much, and improved markedly. I have renewed my subscription 2x and am attempting a third time. I have been very pleased with my professors and my classmates, the pace of the course, and the interest of the activities. The process of renewal, however, has been challenging. In my experience, it is never smooth. This could be improved.
