Description

As a highly proficient French teacher or student, this French language and culture course is the perfect opportunity for you to immerse yourself in the language and culture beyond academic versions or stereotypes.

During the course, you will attend morning language classes specifically designed for your high-level competencies and needs, and then participate in cultural activities, guided tours, and excursions in the afternoons.

These experiences will allow you to observe and absorb authentic communication practices, and be guided by local professional tutors.

By the end of this course, you will have greatly expanded your knowledge and understanding of the French language and culture and also gained new tools and perspectives to bring back to your profession.

By stepping into a student’s shoes, you will be able to critically reassess your teaching methods and attitudes, and choose the approaches that best fit your inclinations.

This course is a unique opportunity to rejuvenate your passion for teaching and bring new energy and inspiration to your profession.

Please note: we offer two more sessions in the afternoon on Tuesday and Thursday and also one workshop on Wednesday.
