INTENSIVE FRENCH: Our intensive courses are high-quality. A typical program is a 5-day course. You study 3hrs a day; your afternoons (or mornings) are free for you to ski, snowboard, walk, play golf or tennis, or relax. The evenings are for you to test your new language skills and confidence in the many different restaurants and bars in bustling Chamonix. These intensive French courses are available all year round. "French & Ski", in Chamonix is our most popular course.

BUSINESS FRENCH: We also offer highly intensive French business courses in Chamonix which focus on language for communication and on key aspects of French social and business cultures. These one-to-one courses are very demanding and very effective, with 45 hours a week of structured language use.

Morning lessons are followed by lunch with your teacher and then activities of your choice with a French professional instructor take up the afternoons, giving a total of 45 hours of 1:1 intensive French language use. These afternoon activities are an essential part of your course.

Afternoon activity options (depending on the time of year and weather) include: golf, off-piste skiing, ice-climbing, wine-tasting, paragliding, walking or snowshoeing, tennis or cross-country skiing, and mountain-biking.

INDEPENDENT FRENCH: We can help you find accommodation; an apartment, chalet or gite for example, and provide a teacher.
