CESA Plus Points

  • Good quality language course options for academic or general language improvement
  • Ideal for adults & students
  • Very popular school with past CESA students

There was a good variety of approaches with plenty of opportunities to speak. The right balance between “closed” and more “open” exercises. Some interesting and relevant material was used for example films and newspapers.
CESA were extremely helpful and efficient. I would definitely go back to Bordeaux again. My language course was a very worthwhile experience in every way, it proved far easier to become a pupil again than I had anticipated.

About the School

Established in 1992, the college moved to a 19th century town house in late 2023.
There are 5 classrooms, a magnificent lounge reserved for students to relax between classes and a delightful interior courtyard. The school is situated in the lively Chartrons district, a former wine trading center. It is easy to access, close to many bars, restaurants and shops and has excellent transport connections. At the heart of Bordeaux gastronomy, the school is located between the Halles de Chartrons and the Halles de Bacalan, as well as between the Musée du Vin et du Négoce and the Cité du Vin. It’s also a wonderful place to take a stroll along the banks of the Garonne or in the public gardens.

Students have access to the internet and email at the college. At its busiest during the warmer months of the year, students are advised to book early for the June to September programmes.

The staff are always on hand should you have any questions once on your course. The college requires all their teachers to have university degrees (minimum requirement is a Master’s in Teaching French as Foreign language) and extensive experience teaching French as a Foreign Language.
