Program Reviews:
Summer 2015 Participant
The time spent in the classroom was rewarding. Seeing the museums and historic sites were also great. The time spent outside of class interacting with the French people on the street in restaurants, parks, museums, etc. was the most rewarding.

Summer 2012 Participant
I learned a lot about the french culture through this trip. The language, the dialect, the food, the social customs, and the french way of life! It was awesome! However, school was a fair amount of work. Definetely more than I expected but worth it in the end!

Summer 2012 Participant
Learning the language is all about the effort you put forth to speak, not necessarily the quality of your French, so don't ever be afraid to try to speak the language. You will make mistakes, and that's okay. Also, dress for a much cooler climate. I brought mostly summer clothes and didn't wear any of them. A good jacket and boots/shoes for the rain are essential.
