Our schools are located in popular and lively areas. Whatever your course location, you’ll be close to shops, cafés and restaurants and it will be easy for you to get to the school from your accommodation.

In order to improve your French, we are offering you 3 course centres in some of the greatest regions in France and Switzerland (French-speaking part). And if you wish to learn German, just choose between our two language schools in Berlin and Freiburg.

According to your course location, you will have the opportunity to take an internationally recognised German or French examination directly in our ESL schools in Lyon, Nice, Montreux, Freiburg or Berlin.

From your arrival until your departure, we will provide you with personalised support. Staff members are always on hand to answer your questions and help you throughout your stay.
