Summer Camps > Soccer summer camp in France
Nacel, since we contacted them about these summer camps in France.. they have been very kind to us. They organized a supervised transfer for Sebastian and made sure he felt comfortable at this soccer camp. Sebastian had a great time playing football, his passion. With his father we are happy with Nacel's services.

Summer Camps > Dance summer camp in France

We're participating with my cousin in the summer of 2019. We slept in the same room and met a lot of friends. 

Summer Camps > Dance summer camp in France

The campus in Mâcon is huge. There are dormitories, classrooms, cafeteria, vending machines. Everyone speaks French. That encourage me to speak French too. When I sometimes felt shy to speak French, my friends encouraged me to speak and it was okay if I made a mistake. At least, dancing is a universal language.

I made a lot of friends at dance camp and other sports, football, basketball. It was a nice few weeks in France and I hope to return soon.

High School Abroad > High School Exchange program in France

We talked to our daugther yesterday and she was so happy! She loves it in Rodez-the town, the school, the school staff and the Nacel staff.  She also said she has girls to sit with at lunch and that everyone has been so nice to her. She also said that she is speaking French more and her understanding gets better every day. The experience she is having now is what she expected from the program so I think this is a good match for her. 

Thank you again for all you and the team have done to help with this transition

We are overwhelmed with the hospitality and kindness everyone including those in Nacel and, of course, the entire family has shown Hannah over these last months.  It is our feeling that Hannah really does love her host family and all the opportunities they have created for her and we believe that Hannah is gaining tangible and immediate benefits from this experience not only by improving her French but by learning about herself including her strengths and weaknesses.

Summer Camps > French and Sports summer camp in France

My parents came with me and dropped me off at tennis camp. The first few minutes I felt very sad. But when I got to my room and met Marie, everything changed. I will always be grateful for her kindness. The camp director was also very attentive to me and the other international students in the French courses. The courses were in groups. The French teacher was very kind, attentive and patient. Days at the camp go by very quickly! Next week is my second week at camp and I don't want to leave!

Summer Camps > French Courses in Paris with activities Residence

GREAT.

Summer Camps > French Courses in Paris with activities Residence

I'll never forget the good times during this programme. I met many new friends of different nationalities in the courses. We all got along very well from the beginning. We had many things in common, such as learning French, getting to know Paris and coming to study in France in the near future. The teacher was very kind and the residence where we stayed was clean and comfortable.

High School Abroad > Paris Boarding School

The boarding school in Paris is in good condition and the teachers are very attentive. For my first exchange, I did well. When you are motivated, anything is possible! Walking around Paris almost every weekend has been a real dream!! There are monuments worth visiting such as the Louvre, Orsay..well.. all museums , the famous Eiffel tower (it's huge), the Champs elysées. My favorite place is and will always be: Montmartre!

Summer Camps > English language immersion camp in Monaghan

Summer Camps > Teen German Course in Germany (Wiesbaden)

It's been a really nice experience. It's not the first time I've participated in a summer camp, but it's the first time I've gone abroad. I really want to come back next year!

We discovered the city and its surroundings. What I liked the most was to discover the castle of Neuschwanstein. it was very impressive. we took many pictures with friends.

My daughter Claudia had a lot of fun at the German camp. She met new friends and the host family was very kind with her. I was in contact with them.  She left with a very basic German and now she is saying a few phrases at home. Thank you very much for your assistance.

High School Abroad > High School Exchange in Italy

Thank you very much for all your help. I've been to a high school in the south of Italy for a quarter and it's been wonderful! At first, it was difficult to adapt because my Italian was not so perfect. Now I feel very comfortable speaking Italian and singing songs in Italian! I love opera and the arts and having lived in Italy for a while has been a dream come true!

Language School > French School in Montpellier

Montpellier is an adorable city! I've fallen in love with la place de la comedie! My friend likes me too! We went three weeks to improve our French and to change some airs. The Bélanger family treated us very well and the room was clean and welcoming. I highly recommend this program if you are looking for French courses with accommodation at an affordable price.

High School Abroad > High School Exchange program in France

Studying in France is the best! The Nacel team is very close to you and you are always listening. I had a lot of support from my local coordinator, Amelie! The advice I could give to students interested in doing a school exchange in France is to make the most of their time! It doesn't matter if you don't speak French very well, the important thing is that you try and don't watch videos or listen to the radio of your country of origin. 

Language School > French School in Lyon

Studying French in Lyon is the best thing I could have done and especially in Winter! On weekends, we went skiing in Chamonix with other girls from the school! I highly recommend these French courses. You will like Lyon!

Summer Camps > Tennis summer camp in France

I loved it! The facilities were clean and good! I felt very comfortable playing tennis with French girls and boys. I had never met many French before. So it was a nice experience. Everyone was very nice to me. I learned new phrases like: J'arrive, je mange là, je t'aime ma copine!

Summer Camps > Basketball summer camp in France

I went with my friend Pau to the camps in France and we had fun together. The guys on the team were very nice to us and when we asked them to speak more slowly, they did it. We hope to come back next summer in July and see the same kids again, but if we meet other kids, that's okay too.

High School Abroad > South of France Boarding school

Studying in France was the best thing that ever happened to me! The food, the people, the architecture is great. Thank you very much Nacel for accepting me into your school exchange program. The boarding school is spectacular for those who want to concentrate well on their studies. At first, if you don't have very good French (like mine when I arrived) you'll feel that it's difficult to keep up with school, but it's normal because you've just arrived. The teachers are very attentive and listen to students who are interested in applying themselves to their studies. I recommend this program 100%.

Language School > Arabic school in Morocco

Since the Turkish and Arab TV series arrived in Chile, I became very interested in the culture of the Middle East. Learning Arabic in Morocco has been a decision that has changed my life. It has been a beautiful experience to have left my country to live something completely new. I am very grateful to everyone on the team. Thank you very much for this experience!

Language School > Arabic school in Morocco

At school, everybody was nice to me. They are very good and professional. They also speak English so I felt comfortable and not so lost abroad. Arabic is difficult to learn in your own country. In Tetouan to do my shopping, I used a lot of the Arabic I learned at school. I recommend 100 % of learning Arabic in an Arab country because you will learn it very fast like me.

Language School > German school in Munich

Thank you very much for your help! Now, I am able to read in German! I'm so happy! At first, I remember when I struggled a lot to understand anything in German. But, teachers were very patient and kind. I will always appreciate that! after many hours of listening to German everywhere, I got used to it. I still don't think in German but it will come.

High School Abroad > IB Schools in Canada

I'm learning a lot to get to know myself thanks to this program. It is true that the way of working is very different. But this helps a lot for people like me who like experiments and research. I've always dreamed of being in a school where people respect each other and have an interest in really learning and I feel like I'm in the right program.

Summer Camps > French Courses in Paris with activities Residence

A well-organized supervised program for teenagers who are learning French.

Homestay Programs > Junior Homestay in France

My flight back was great! I've been attending summer cross-country practices and in a couple of days, I'm starting my senior year of high school.   After my homestay, I feel more confident when I speak French and know a lot more everyday words that were missing from my vocabulary. The Batons were wonderful to stay with and I especially liked accompanying them to their local band practices every week. I would strongly recommend this program to others! 

Homestay Programs > Homestay in France and Discovery Paris

Bobby had an amazing time in France! What an incredible experience for him. Yes, his French definitely improved quite a bit. His host family was wonderful! We would absolutely recommend the program (I did it myself in 1990). My daughter will likely do the program 2 years from now.

Thank you so much for coordinating Prasanna's homestay in Calpe with a wonderful family.  I think he had a very good time and learnt a lot, including improving his Spanish (!).  The coordinator in Calpe, Lorena, was a big help and support, as well.  I feel like the quality and care of Nacel has remained at its high standard from the memorable stays that my family has experiences a generation ago.

I play basketball almost professionally. At camp, I found the level I was looking for. The French courses went well. The teacher was funny and listening. We worked pretty well.

Summer Camps > French Courses in Paris with activities Residence

After graduating from the United States, my parents offered me this French course in Paris. It was the best gift I have ever received. I traveled for the first time outside the United States to learn French in France. I wasn't the only one with a beginner's level. Thanks God! We had a lot of fun getting to know Paris and took a lot of pictures for our social networks. French is a very beautiful language and Paris even more! We visited many places and did shopping. I went back to the United States with many gifts for my parents and family.

Language School > French School in Normandy

I am in France studying French.  I would like to do university in France in the future, maybe at the Sorbonne. I would like to have 2 majors: French and History. The food has much less sugar than in the US, and it tastes more natural. I visited the Château d’Amboise, the Clos Lucé et the Chateau Gaillard. I’m fond of Castles. In Paris I hope to visit Place de la Concorde, Château de Vincennes, Château de Fontainebleau and Château de Versailles. It is my passion. I love France and I hope to live here one day. I really want to learn how to speak French properly, this is why I’m here! 

Most students dream of studying abroad, fortunately I had the opportunity of attending Saint Paul American School, which is an English based school located in Shanghai, China. I am thankful to both Nacel and my parents for providing me the opportunity to study far from home. Due to what I just mentioned, I got to experience what it was to live foreign country, with a different culture, along with students from all around the world. It was definitely a thrilling experience, from moving to a boarding school, meanwhile becoming an independent adult, to learning how to eat with chopsticks. I most enjoyed interacting with different nationalities, sharing experiences, and growing by learning from each other which is something that I personally will never forget. If someone asked me what my favorite memory from China is, I would tell them about the dorm life. Imagine living with your friends and being able to walk into each other’s room to hangout or blow off some steam from school. Another thing I would mention is being able to travel around the country experiencing the Chinese culture with my friends. I would suggest to take the initiative to study abroad to anyone who is mature enough and ready to live an unforgettable experience.

Summer Camps > Basketball and French summer camp in France

Jésus participated in this camp two years ago. Last summer he was unable to participate due to health problems. But this summer he could and was very happy to be back. As always the team of Nacel very respectful and Professional. I highly recommend this basketball camp so that your children can meet other kids their age and talk to them in French. The first year if we enrolled him in the classes, this year not because he wanted to spend much more time playing basketball.

High School Abroad > South of France Boarding school

I want to study medicine at a French university in the future and to be able to adapt and catch up with French culture, my parents and I are interested in Nacel's boarding schools in France. They recommended the Espalion boarding school because the faculty was highly qualified and interested in helping students have an excellent year. For this reason, we chose Espalion. Coming from a big city, I really liked the idea of studying in a much calmer, safer place with nature around. My year in Espalion has been very productive and I leave happy because I have achieved my goal: to study in France and get good grades. Have a nice day!

Homestay Programs > Homestay in France and Discovery Paris

My French host family was absolutely amazing. They were so much like my family, and they immediately helped me to feel at home. They made sure to plan enough so that I could see Angoulême but not feel rushed to do so. We did things like go to a “Fête de la musique,” Puy Du Fou, La Rochelle, and more. Though they weren’t required to do all of this, it made my stay there feel more memorable. I feel like a formed a valuable connection with them, and I would love for them to visit my family in the US, or for me to be able to see them again in France. 

In terms of my French, I definitely feel like I improved. There are things that are taught to us in school that don’t really apply to real life in France, like how negatives work and how to say “we.” Being in France for a month, i was able to learn a bunch of saying, colloquialisms, and new vocabulary that will help me in the coming years. I’d say that being totally immersed in a culture for 1 month really helps with learning language, given you have to speak said language all the time. 

 I would definitely recommend this program to students who want to better their language skills, experience a new culture, and form new relationships. It was a great program and definitely gave me more knowledge than I had. However, the only problem with the program was with the Paris Discovery tour. Mainly, there was not near enough time to do everything, and we found that some days, things were closed due to heavy traffic (like the 3rd floor of the Eiffel Tower). Otherwise, it was a great and fulfilling program. 

Finally, on the personal side, I have a connection with my Host family in Touvre, but I also did a lot of self-discovery there and realized that I also have a connection with France, too. I have grown a love for their culture, food, people, places, and language. I feel like there’s a piece of me left in France that’s hard to ignore, and I’m highly considering going back one day, possibly to study in college. The Nacel program helped me with that discovery, and I am always thankful for that.

Everything went very smoothly for Alex's return trip home.  She is still very tired but everything went well!  She had a FANTASTIC time with her lovely lovely host family- the Bousquets were especially nice to Alex and Helen was very kind and patient! .  We cannot thank the Bousquets enough for providing such nice care of Alex - she really experienced what it is like to live in France.  She especially loved playing the piano and going with their daughter to her piano lessons.  I do think her French improved - especially her pronunciation and common phrases.  She is excited to return to her French classes in School this Fall to continue her lessons.

As we are moving this year to Australia, we are so happy that Alex could have this experience during her last Summer as a teenager in the US.  I would highly recommend this program!

I would like to thank you for your arrangements, we are all very happy with your services and especially with the host family. Veronika enjoys her stay in Cologne very much, she likes her host brothers and parents.  They travelled together to Holland, she met the relatives of the family, she was totally involved in the live of the family. It helped her to get to know the culture of Germany and to improve her language skills.  She also likes her school and schoolmates. She enjoys her basketball trainings. She could make new friends, too. During her stay she had new experiences, she become more mature and gained a new vision of life. I am totally happy she made this program and would do it again. I am already thinking about applying with my son, too. 

Language School > German school in Munich
Munich is wonderful! I hope to come back next summer with my best friends! 

Language School > French School in Montpellier

Zoe truly had a nice experience at Montpellier, her host family took good care of her. They are educated, attentive and kind. The only two things: Zoe was not able to switch to a higher level class during the first week because the higher level was full, and the host family is a little far from the school ( which we understand both). But overall, she really enjoyed the classes there and had a wonderful time at School and with the host family. Thank you very much for your effort and help to make this happen and everything runs smoothly. I will definitely recommend your services to my friends and family.

Homestay Programs > Homestay in France and Discovery Paris

I did a home stay with Nacel in July 1985. When I got to Lyon, the chaperone saw the name of my family and said I wouldn’t want to leave at the end of the month. Indeed. I studied abroad in Grenoble and came “home” every weekend; two of their sons visited my family in the US. I’m now a French professor in Chicago, and am sitting at the dining table of the house where I stayed all those years ago (the trees are taller!). About to leave for Paris where I’ll visit their youngest son and pick his kids up at school tomorrow. Merci to Nacel! And here’s to exchanges.
