I appreciated the small class size and enjoyed the diversity of students. I found Laeticia, whi taught the 9:15am class was great and would love to have her as my teacher again. I would have liked similar consistency in my second class as during the 4 weeks I studied there, we had 6 different teachers. I enjoyed meeting the different students and participating in the weekly sortie. I also love the location of the school and found all of the staff to be helpful.
Show details » Read more...I attended Hélène’s classes for six months. I arrived in Paris without speaking a single word of French. I found a very welcoming group, and with two lovely girls we later became friends and spent wonderful time together in Paris.
The absolute advantage is that the classes are very small, so you are constantly speaking, and the teacher corrects every word and sentence you say. You are practicing the most important skill, speaking.
The classes are also very engaging. There is a good balance between grammar and vocabulary. Hélène selects interesting topics, and the whole class discusses them during the lesson. For example, she uses small cards with before-and-after images or interesting books she finds in the library to start conversation.
I made friends and spent wonderful evenings there , I was always looking forward to the classes! It was truly a great experience. Absolutely recommended!
very nice stuff. No organized excursions, only a lame walk once a week. campus is nice. Letitia Demestrele the best!
Show details » Read more...The classes and the teachers were very good because your teacher is writing down everything in her Laptop and you can see her notes on the wall to write it down by yourself. You´re getting a little notebook where you can write the stuff you learn down to memorize it later.
Sometimes the teacher tells you to work with a partner to exchange your notes so you can compare and maybe correct it.
Everyone is asked questions about the topic by the teacher so everyone can learn about and no one is excluded.
I can highly recommend the school. The classes were compiled perfect, accordingly to each students skills of the French language. The teachers were highly educated, taught with verve and humor and lots of energy. The facilities were very charming and French. You feel homy instantly.
All are very uncomplicated.
The teacher was very kind And she paid equal attention to everyone. Everything was explained in an understandable way.

Une classe engagée.
La location est bien situé.
My teacher Marion was always well prepared and on time.
She payed attention to the subjects I was interested in and designed each class with those subjects in mind. I felt compelled to make an effort to speak French in a natural conversation way, not in a textbook way. She also saw where my grammar skills needed improvement and prepared exercises based on that.
We chose the Starbucks as our class location because it was close to my apartment. Sometimes it was loud, and sometimes the internet did not work so well to watch the videos my teacher had for me, so that was the downside. But it was very convenient for me.
