Language Trips to Montpellier

"Teachers are motivated and supportive. The language course was well organized. There were many activities offered and suggestions made. Excursions on the weekends were really good."

"French and Internship... Tailor made! It is the best word I could find to comment my internship experience in a french company in Montpellier. My boss was very patient with my french speaking which was far from fluent at that time!! He was always curious of my opinion and ideas and always ready to help or assist me. Given that the company was human size business, I could see and study the whole process of exportation business seeing all different tasks involved. As I had to be in contact  with companies abroad all over the world, my working time became very flexible so that I could combine my internship with extra lessons of French making my professional improvement even better! Last but not least.. the company was specialized in wine exportations which allowed me to learn quickly a lot of things about one of the most famous French Speciality, le vin francais!! I really felt I grew up both on the professional and personal ways: I recommand this to everyone!!"

"Positive aspects of School Location in the center of Montpellier, and quality, friendliness of teachers Insider tips about what future students should not miss The host family experience is a wonderful way to experience french culture as well as more practice in speaking french. Other comments: What a wonderful expereince! I am a professional from the US and there were so many great things to say. The city of Montpellier is a beautiful smaller European city with much to offer - Opera, museums and close to day-trips to regional historic cities. Though small, Montpellier is surprisingly cosmopolitan in its outlook and is a very welcoming place, especially for someone who has never experienced a different culture. The school was also very helpful, extremely friendly, and the classes were very well-taught. I only stayed a week, but it was worth it and would have liked to have stayed longer."

"I had a marvelous time.  The students were mostly young professionals who were serious about learning French in order to further their careers. The teachers were patient, helpful and seemed genuinely enthusiastic and friendly. The entire school exuded an atmosphere of friendly supportive caring. I could not wait, each morning, to have my café and croissant in the main square under a palm tree and get to class. I take French lessons on a regular basis to this day and still regard the school as the best second-language learning experience I have ever had,  The best part of studying in France is the total immersion. Most of the students had first languages ranging from German to Japanese, so the ONLY common language we shared was French. There was no opportunity (and therefore no temptation) to speak anything other than French."

“Good organisation, but unfortunately my booked accommodation was no longer available. The building is old but charming and unfortunately had a high amount of noise coming from ongoing construction. The individual tuition is good because it meets your personal needs. The activities program offered by the school is great, however, with the individual lessons you are unable to participate in all activities. The host family was very nice, unfortunately the accommodation was unavailable (I booked a room as the only student with the host family with my own room/shower/toilet). However, the friendliness of the host family made up for this."

"Bonjour Virginie and Dorothéé it is over a month since Dennis and his friends came back from their wonderful trip to Montpellier. I just wanted to say ‘thank you’ for providing such a positive experience for all of us. Everything about the school was excellent, from the first telephone conversation we had with you to the classroom tuition which the boys got. They enjoyed their stay and felt that their standard of French improved hugely . I will certainly recommend the school to any parents who are looking for a language school for their children in future."

"I wish to thank the school for a very well organised language studyschool and, particuarly, Jallila and Laurence for being excellent teachers, and good course materal.  I thoroughly enjoyed the course and hope to return next year!"

"I went to the school in October and I had a superb time. The classes were absolutely top notch. I am a fairly advanced French speaker (I was born in Montreal and practiced Social Work there for a while) so they placed me in the highest level, but I got great feedback from students who were in intermediate and beginner levels as well. I opted to take group classes in the morning and private tutoring in the afternoons. I recommend this option to you if you can afford it. This school is top notch and I highly recommend it. I think you will find you learn a lot …"

“I am very satisfied with the organisation of my studies in France. Everything worked like a charm. Brigitte Kramer from Sprachdirekt was very friendly. My questions were always answered in detail and in a timely manner. Excellent and amazing building, nice and usually very competent faculty. There was a typical southern French mentality, meaning there were a lot of late comers. Therefore, the lessons usually started 10-15 minutes later than the scheduled time, etc… The courses had a great atmosphere and varied lessons (videos, music, games, group discussions, role playing, individual tasks, etc…). I was very happy with the accommodations provided on the first floor of the facility. The owner was very friendly and provided timely service. Any issues with the room were resolved very quickly.”

“Yes, I was quite satisfied with the service provided and the teacher was sufficiently straight forward. Well done! The quality of the staff balanced the prices of the course. The school had great staff, good instruction, a top activity program. Despite the price the school would definitely deserve the highest rating.”

“The teachers of Montpellier language school are very hard working and kind. The facilities were beautiful. Sometimes the classroom was too small for the amount of students in the class; however, the course was well structured. My host family was conveniently located close to the language school.”
