The typical French language homestay program
2 people or more
(7 Days, 6 Nights)
Provides constant support from your teacher through…
Semi-individual tuition: 2 or more students or guests
(same party, compatible levels)
A party is composed of 1 student plus other students or guests (maximum 4 people)
Privatisation for ONE student, on request
French lessons in the morning, designed for your level and particular needs
3 hours a day x 5 days
The lessons will cover speaking, listening, reading and writing skills. We will set together a work plan based on your strengths and weaknesses but also, mainly on your objectives: light program or more intensive program for students preparing the Delf or Dalf exams.
The idea is to zero in what you need most to kick-start your French learning.
