Les ateliers FL Nice

Nice small group of people my age. Two teachers, different types but both very nice. Location was good, nice walk from my appartment and the center

Very approachable teachers great atmosphere and nice facilities, i would appreciate maybe bit more interactive activities that actually give a chance to get to know people, as I heard some people didn't have a courage to initiate interactions. My housing was private and i think that was a really good choice as usually housing is really expensive here.

I really enjoyed being in this language school, as the teachers and other students were really nice.
But unfortunately the way of teaching was not what I expected. Students should talk way more and practice with the teacher. Instead they were supposed to do read, write and do grammar all over again. It didnt help me much to improve my french but still I would recommend the classes it if you are a beginner.

I have been trying to learn French for 20+ years. Finally, I flew to France a week before my husband joined me, to go to language school before our vacation, Yes, a week isn't long enough, but it did really help me improve. I am probably elementary school level, maybe now a bit better. Our instructor was very pleasant and good humored, the class rooms were clean, but it was quite humid the week I was there and we needed to keep the windows open for some air circulation, which caused a bit of noise, as the school is located on a corner. I would totally go to France Langue again. My one complaint is the online company I booked it through. While they were very nice, they gave me incorrect information. Such as, I was given a 3 year old school address. So, on Monday morning the day I was to report to take my placement exam, it was of course raining, and I went to the 3 year old address I was given. The school, was more than 30minutes away from location, by foot, as I had to walk there. This also affected, the hotel I chose to stay in. Second, I had asked the online person about the cooking classes offered on Tue & Thur evenings while I was there. He told me he had communicated my dietary restrictions and that I should be okay to sign up to attend. I was skeptical and told him, great, but I'll pay there, when I sure (instead of paying ahead online to him). Of course, on Monday, when I asked about signing up for the classes, none of my dietary restrictions were communicated to the school and the class was set with menus I couldn't eat.

The classes were very interactive
The teachers creative
The location nice and green
The activities cultural and entertaining

I liked the school so cozy, the teachers were friendly. Magritte my professor was amazing. Very friendly , likable, sweet, funny,and make information easily digested. Sandra the advisor/ receptionist was a very friendly,nice, and very helpful. The class was good.
Though it was a short period of time to study in (5 days), but I expected more!

What happened was just like refreshing my memory with what I already studied before. My goal was to be able to speak and communicate in French. I can hardly do that, I try my best to do so with Magritte and my colleagues but it was really difficult. I believe it’s not their fault, it’s just was a very short period of time to work with.

I was so pleased to meet several nationalities and communicate with them. I hope we will end up friends in contact.

Overall, it was a different experience to and I am willing to do it again once I have more time to get really benefited.

Thank you so much all and especially IIiana

I took the course with my daughter, and had a very pleasant experienced in Nice.

We stayed for 2 weeks, which easily could have been extended. 1 week would have been too short, as you need to build of skills and confidence before starting to speak your self.

Additionally Nice is very nice with a lot of after school attractions, and even in September the weather was good, with the possibility to be at the beach.

The school was very good, with nice facilities and very competent teachers.

I enjoyed the classes and I thought that the teachers were very helpful and attentive. The location was perfect as it was just in the centre of Nice. I was only there for 1 week so I didn't do any activities.

I found Lise, our teacher, absolutely fantastic. She was enthusiastic, amusing, pedagogic, trying to get us all involved in conversations, and she spoke wonderful French intended for our levels.

A small complaint that I have though is I wish we could have had a few more breaks; we had only one every 4 hours.

The classroom was okay with a blackboard which Lise utilized with lots of illustrative drawings! The ventilator did not work satisfactorily, though.

The excursions in French were interesting, and the "guide" seemed to answer our questions in a competent way. I would have liked to visit a few museums and other cultural places in e.g. Menton, Nice, and Venice, though. The old towns of Cannes, Nice, Menton, and Saint Paul were very much alike.

With regard to the excursions, there was too little time for a bite of lunch between the end of lessons and departure for the excursions. This was pointed out, and the last day was adjusted to give us proper time for lunch.

One major complaint I have is that most of the students, including myself, were only on the course for 5 days, so I found it a waste of time that on the first morning, we only had an introduction to the course and no lessons at all. (An excursion in the afternoon was designed, though).

The staff in the office was very helpful.

I stayed in a hotel and not with a private family, but the location of the school was central and convenient.

All in all it was a great experience, and my interest in the French language has been stimulated from this course.
