CLE - An Excellent French Immersion Experience

 

I recently completed 4 weeks at CLE and I strongly recommend the school to anyone interested in strengthening their French skills (including those who are beginners). I chose CLE because of the small class size and I am very happy with my decision. The school takes great care to understand each student's individual goals and structure the lessons accordingly. This, combined with the small class size, really accelerated my learning.
Another aspect of the school with which I was very pleased was the people - both the teachers and the students. The teachers are excellent and more than willing to help you, both inside and outside of class; and I found my fellow students to be like-minded: very interested in the French immersion experience and very willing to help each other, regardless of each person's comprehension level.
Further, Tours is a great town in which to study. It's centrally located in France with easy access to other cities by train. The locals are welcoming and willing to help you with your French. And the scenery is beautiful, with chateaus and vineyards abound.
If you're considering studying French in France, I highly recommend CLE.
