Learn French in Bordeaux

Learn French in Bordeaux. Study French in France, joining group classes or private courses for all language levels, throughout the year.

 

Learn French in a language school in Bordeaux that offers students a fabulous location south of the city centre and group classes across all language levels, year round.

With over 10 years of teaching experience the college offers a highly enjoyable central city environment to suit ALL linguistic needs from beginner through to the advanced learner (across 5 language levels on general language courses) and caters for between 30 and 60 students each month. The city appeals as a year-round destination, as there is so much to do and see, whatever the season. Situated in the southwest of France, Bordeaux lies close to the Atlantic seaboard and is the capital of the Aquitaine region. It is set on the banks of the river Garonne and is famous for its magnificent wines.

Home to some 700,000 people, Bordeaux is a thriving University city with style ~ wide avenues, neo-classical architecture and elegant public parks. There is a lively student scene throughout the academic year, though of course it is the wine industry and commerce generally, that brought great wealth to the region.

Julie  Summer group course

The teachers are simply wonderful. Their kindness, patience, and constant encouragement created a very positive learning environment. Even for those of us who speak limited French, they were able to listen to us and encourage us.
