How will I study French?

This summer camp in France is a real immersion in French because coaches, teachers, and most campers (90%) are French. International students can join the French campers during the sports practices and the social activities planned inside the camp. International participants must have a minimum French level (2 years of French studies) to interact with the other campers and understand what the coach says.

This camp does not include French lessons.
