Our French language courses in Nice for students take place at our school residences, where a large number of our students stay. The language courses are suited for children and teenagers from 12 to 17 years. The students come from all over the world to learn French to a high standard whilst enjoying a wonderful holiday by the sea at the same time in Southern France.

Location & facilities::

If you stay in the residence, or with a host family in summer, your lessons take place in the residence. Your teachers are specially trained to teach French to young people using the latest methods.
 

After lessons, a great time awaits you on the campus, which has plenty of sports and leisure facilities, and in the surrounding area. The beach and the town are only a few minutes away by bus.
