Sunny Montpellier is a lively university city and a fantastic choice for a French school trip!

This is particularly the case if your students are preparing for exams, as we are able to arrange language lessons and carefully selected host family accommodation here, for total French immersion.

Our French language school in Montpellier is located in the city centre, close to the Place de la Comédie. All teachers are fully-qualified native speakers who will tailor the lesson content to meet your requirements. And your students will enjoy a fantastic cultural activities programme which will encourage them to practise using their French with native speakers. As will staying with carefully selected host families, all of whom have a clean police record.
