Private language stay with a native English teacher in France
Learn English in France through private one-to-one lessons with a native English teacher! You’ll be fully immersed in daily life with a British or anglophone host family living in France.
This programme is also suitable for those who wish to learn French. French lessons with a qualified teacher can be arranged based on your level and learning goals.
One-to-one English lessons with your teacher in France
- First, the English lessons are taught by a qualified native English teacher, experienced in teaching English as a foreign language.
- The programme is then tailored to the student’s level, learning pace, and personal goals.
- Participants are encouraged to share any difficulties they face or specific expectations they may have – whether academic, professional, or personal.
- Finally, you can choose the number of weekly lesson hours to match your needs: 10, 15, 20, 25, or 30 hours per week.
For those wishing to learn French, a similar programme is available: stay with a French-speaking teacher, take private French lessons, and enjoy daily activities to practise the language in real-life situations.
Activity programme during the English language stay in France
- To begin with, the student shares the daily life of their English teacher and is encouraged to speak English outside of lesson time.
- This ongoing immersion reinforces newly acquired vocabulary and concepts, leading to real and lasting progress in the language.
- In addition, depending on the participant’s interests and what is available locally, it is also possible to organise personal outings (subject to age and with the teacher’s approval).
Optional add-ons for your English language stay in France
- English + sports: 3 sport sessions per week at a local sports centre (see practical information for details).
- English + cultural visits: 3 hours of visits with the teacher or a member of the host family (museums, castles, and other well-known sites).
All fees (entrance tickets, transport, etc.) are included in this option. - English + general activities: The host family offers local activities based on their location and the participant’s interests. These may include: cinema, bowling, mini-golf, swimming, visiting a farm, cooking, local visits, shopping, arts and crafts, local markets, nature walks (beach, countryside, city, park…), board games, and more. Outside these activities, the participant continues to take part in the everyday life of the family.
- Exam preparation: Want to boost your chances of success in your studies or professional life after this language stay? We offer tailored lessons to help you prepare for exams such as the Cambridge First Certificate, Proficiency, TOEIC, or TOEFL. The teacher can create a personalised programme to match your objectives.
