Teen Summer Study Abroad Programs in France
Edu-Culture International (ECI) is a non-profit educational organization run by professionals with advanced degrees in education, based in the San Francisco Bay Area of California with offices in the USA and Europe. We specialize in summer study abroad and exchange programs for high school students, and have exciting summer trips based in Lyon, Aix-en-Provence and Toulouse. These study trips provide unique opportunities for pre-college teens to learn French in France and offer the choice of staying with host families or in university-style dormitories.
ECI’s French immersion programs last from 3 to 4 weeks, with the first 2-3 weeks including language classes. The morning classes are small, interactive, fun and usually include other international students. After lunch, there are a variety of supervised activities like kayaking, soccer, visits to the beach or to nearby villages and towns, cooking classes and more. After dinner we enjoy concerts, dancing, movies, and other social activities. Of course, there’s plenty of free time for students to get together with friends to explore their own interests – getting a taste of independence and college life is an important part of the experience.
Our French study trips also include travel to some of the most beautiful places in France – Paris, Nice, St Tropez, Carcassonne, Cassis, Annecy, Avignon and more! We always choose high quality, centrally located hotels and professional bilingual guides. Each group is comprised of 30 students and 3 full-time chaperones.
The ECI commitment to high standards also extends to the schools we use for our French classes. We have taken great care to ensure that these classes meet all the ECI quality requirements. The teachers we use are always native French speakers with extensive teaching experience. All instructors have degrees in teaching French as a foreign language and many have experience as well in theatre, literature and music. Students are grouped into one of several levels, based on a placement test. Classes are small, with approximately 10 students per class.
High school students who are planning on applying to college in the near future know how important it is to have a strong application. With ECI’s study abroad programs, teens can earn three semester units of credit in French through an accredited US university. These credits are transferable to any university, and are accepted by most universities in the United States.
