I have to mention about the French classes that is made fun by Stephan, He is very patient. His elaborate explanation and knowledge help me understand the language well. My French friends think I understand them better than before and I am able to answer them better. They believe that I will be able to speak French fluently soon.

Equipped with dynamic, passionate and talented professionals, it is situated in a small but beautiful, picturesque village in the South of France.
