Junior Summer Course (1 to 4 weeks program)

I was an amazing experience; I found a place friendly and homely.
They gave me a good support to learn french.
I just say thank you:

The teaching was great, location was awesome right in the centre. I didn't attend the activities but had a great student life. One qualm was that I stayed in a host family that wasn't very welcoming. I was not allowed to cook which made eating food very expensive. The lady made breakfast but it was only two pieces of bread with some butter and marmalade and a piece of fruit which was normally well past its best. I am a 19 year old who is very hungry, and that is simply not enough. Every morning I had to buy a second breakfast. when I asked her if she could make an egg or something more filling, she simply replied "I dont make eggs"- even though I had seen her make herself an egg. Also the tv was constantly on and she was reluctant to turn it off when I wanted to work or when I had to hear activities on my phone for homework. I would have happily done the work in my bedroom but there was no wifi in the bedroom and only a tiny desk. Other than that, the experience was perfect

I was able to learn at my own pace after working since it was private lessons.

All of the teachers at Lange Onze are very effective at teaching French. I related better to the female teachers. I discussed this with my friends at the school and determined that it was just my personality because they did not share my experience.

I enjoyed socializing with the other students. My fellow students were made of up of a truly international group of adventurous and intelligent people that enjoyed learning. We supported each other in the learning process and there was a lot of camaraderie and respect for each other. The only thing that I would have done differently with my time at Langue Onze would have been to schedule a week or two off in the middle of the program. I look forward to returning next year to complete my studies.

Toulouse is a handsome historic town, very walk able, good restaurants. I found a pleasant apartment 10 minutes walking from school.

Langue Onze is very centrally located in Carmes neighborhood, handsome older building, class rooms well-equipped.

Professors engaged, welcoming and very competent.

Although I only attended 2 weeks this has given me a good encouragement to continue my effort to improve my knowledge of the French language. I did not experience anything that I did not like.
