Learning French doesn’t stop when the class ends. To keep things fun and immersive, we balance your focused study with unique social and cultural experiences in and around Nice.
LIVE THE LANGUAGE — OUTSIDE OF THE CLASSROOM

The French Riviera has a temperate climate all year round, casual and and appropriate attire works just fine. During most days you’ll enjoy plenty of sun. But yearly it’s best to pack a light jacket and a sweater for cooler nights. From November to March you may encounter a little rain, so a a small umbrella and light rain jacket could come in handy.
These activities aren’t just about sightseeing—they’re opportunities to engage in conversation, meet people from around the world, and connect with French culture. It’s all about making learning fun, real, and social!
