Our school in Nice, France

French class at our school

Our Nice school is in an attractive mansion from the early 1900s, located in the center of the city. The school has 17 large and well-equipped classrooms, a multi-media room, library, its own garden, patio area and free Internet access throughout the building.

Shops, beaches and the colorful old town are all close to our school. After your French lessons, relax in the pleasant surroundings of the school’s garden or soak up some sun on the beach!

Language programs at our school are very popular during the summer months, so we also have a second site, to cater for more students. This school, equally well-equipped, is situated close to the Roman Arenas and a museum exhibiting the paintings of Henri Matisse.

Our French language programs

Students on excursion

You can choose from a wide range of French language courses at our Nice school. Our experienced teachers are all native French speakers, and class sizes are kept to a maximum of 10 students, so you will learn French quickly whatever course you choose!

Our Intensive Course gives you 30 French lessons each week, but you may like to choose 20 Private Lessons every week if you really want to make rapid progress in a short period of time. The Intensive Course allows you converse in French with other students in the group, whereas Private Lessons afford you the total attention of your highly-skilled teacher.

You could get the best of both options by taking our Combined Course or our Intensive Combined Course. In addition to 20 Standard group lessons, you can have five Private Lessons on our Combined Course, or 10 Private Lessons on our Intensive Combined Course.

You’ll learn more than just a language if you learn French in Nice! Explore the rich sea-life off Nice’s coast with a course of professional diving lessons, or learn how to sail with expert instructors. These diving and sailing options both run consecutively with our Standard French Course, which consists of 20 French lessons per week.

We also have a specialist French Club 50 + Course, ideal if you’re 50 years-old or more and would like to learn French with people of the same age. If you want to mix with adult language students of all ages, you are, of course, more than welcome to join any of our other courses!

Take one of our courses in French & Cookery or French & Art to get a glimpse into French culture, and see why the French are so passionate about their cuisine and their art!
