They are not included in the program price. They cost 150 euros per week. French language and sport create a great balance for an interesting and fun stay in France. French lessons are given by teachers specialized in teaching French, with effective teaching methods. There are 15 hours French lessons per week (3 hours on weekday afternoons) in groups of about 8 to 15 students. The teacher focuses the lessons on vocabulary, grammar, language laboratory, video, communication, and they always solicit student participation.

Students opting for the course will only attend sports training in the morning (3 hours).
