students take full advantage of everything that a culturally rich city on the

of combining both languages. The French or English course is intensive in the
morning and afternoon. When the course is combined, the morning course is dedicated

acquired knowledge of the second language. Together with the application of the
four basic skills below, qualified and enthusiastic teachers help students to
progress easily in comprehension and in communication:
