La diversidad de actividades y las novedosas técnicas de enseñanza

El ambiente acogedor

En mi caso particular, la mezcla de distintos niveles de los alumnos de mi clase no fue positiva para mi aprendizaje

la variedad del alumnado, la situación

Hay una diferencia abismal entre la preparación de unos profesores-as y otros. Si vuelvo, debería tener la seguridad de un buen profesor; es una inversión de dinero, pero sobre todo de tiempo. Tuve una buena profesora la segunda semana, pero no la primera semana (fue una pérdida de tiempo). Además me consta que en otros grupos ocurrió lo mismo.

si van a la residencia lycee de l`atlantique, no tiene cocina.

si tienes mejor nivel escrito que oral, mejor hacer "un poco mal" el test de nivel, porque no hay prueba oral. Si no te colocarán en un nivel superior y tendrás que pedir que te cambien...

Es imprescindible que realicen una prueba oral de nivel. Yo llevo estudiando fránces 2 años y me colocaron en el nivel más alto! Me cambiaron a otro curso, pero no fue suficiente. Claro, por dos semanas de curso no volvieron a cambiarme...Creo que los profesores no participan lo suficiente a la hora de encuadrar a los alumnos en su nivel.

Royan en invierno es un desierto

Deberían hacer un examen de nivel oral además del escrito.

everything

It is an excellent language school. I strongly recommend it.

good audio-visual-internet facilities

small school but well orientated.

The teachers are very nice and helpful. The school has a wonderful reference library to aid with studying. The city is small and very boring in the off-season, but it's good for saving money and studying! The school does plan many activities and I enjoyed every trip I went on. Overall, I was very happy with the school.

Go on the trips, you'll meet lots of nice people.

verschiedene Medien und Wege zum Erlernen bzw Festigen der Sprachkenntnisse

die sehr engagierten und einfallsreichen LehrerInnen; abwechslungsreicher Unterricht; Flexibilität der LehrerInnen; Augenmerk auf Kommunikation

ich würde auf jeden Fall das nächste Mal mehr als 2 Wochen Unterricht nehmen.

学習内容のテーマ設定や、視覚機器を取り入れた学習方法など、フランス語に興味を持つような工夫をしていること。

レベルによっても違うとは思いますが、ディスカッションの授業が多かったように思います。文法の学習は個人でやるといった感じでした。

ホームステイ先では日曜日に骨董市につれていってもらったりととても親切にしてもらいました。夕飯も一緒なのでフランス人の食生活を知りながらリラックスしてフランス語の会話もできるということが魅力的でした。ただ夏の炎天下の中自転車２０分の下校は自分には少しきつかったです。そのときだけ学校の目の前にあるエラスムス用の寮に宿泊している生徒がうらやましかったです。

Die international (im Schnitt ca. 80 Schüler aus 20 Nationen) und altersmässig (ca.21-60 Jahre) gemischte Zusammensetzung der Schülerschaft. Ein gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. Die Stadt Royan ist zwar nicht vergleichbar mit Orten wie Nizza, Paris, Bordeaux, jedoch gibt es zahlreiche Möglichkeiten für Unternehmungen, und unter der Woche fällt die Konzentration auf den Unterricht vielleicht leichter als an den o.g. Orten.

Der Ausritt durch den Wald bei St.George de Didonne ist auch für Anfänger, die noch nie geritten sind, eine tolle Sache!

Meine Unterkunft in einer Gastfamilie war zwar etwas schmuddelig, jedoch war meine Gastgeberin sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit, und eine gute Köchin der französischen Küche! Außerdem hat sie viel mit mir geredet, daher würde ich eine Unterkunft in einer Gastfamilie unbedingt empfehlen. Allerdings sollte man sich darauf einstellen, dass die Vorstellung von Sauberkeit und Ordnung eventuell etwas anders sind als die eigenen.

Cheap,residence in front of the School, studio TV used by the students (it

If you want to pass the DELF, you can make it in the school in one day, simulation test one day a week,a lot of parking, very good teachers... creo que para españoles con coche, que quieran presentarse para el DELF es la mejor calidad /precio que conozco en Francia (he estado en tres diferentes)

Marilyn est une super professionnelle professeur, elle enseigne très bien, et elle est aussi très jolie!!

The teacher was very experienced, and the multimedia centre was very well equipped.

Make sure you

The school teaches in a very formal way - it isn

Excursions

Congratulations for the welcome of the teachers and guides. Really good service.

It was easy to find one

Be aware that the school has no cantine facilites.

The Erasmus accommodation was awful. It was filthy on my arrival. I had to go to the supermarket to buy cleaning products as the surfaces were black with dirt. The bed was really a matress on the floor. There was a disgusting smell coming from the fridge and mould growing around the shower curtain.I even wore flip flops in the shower. I tried to spend as little time as possible here.

学校主催アクティビティ

well organised, friendly, helpful and plenty of learning aids.

i only enrolled for 1 week due to present circumstances, not long enough! Next time i will enrol for at least 4 weeks so i can progress further.

I would recommend staying with a host family, mine were brilliant and made me really welcome.

Les midi pauses sont trop long

Monsiuer Francois Delaunay, Aurelie, Sprachlabor

Das Training im Sprachlabor als auch die Hörübungen hätten ausgiebiger sein können.

Mir haben vor allem die Aktivitäten neben dem Unterricht gefallen. Zum Beispiel bin ich zu der Begrüßung der neuen Schüler in das nahe gelegene Irish Pub "Astoria" gegangen und konnte so sehr schnell Kontakte zu Franzosen knüpfen. Für mich war es wichtig auch neben der Schule französisch zu üben, was dort problemlos möglich war. An der Schule werden auch für Franzosen Englischkurse angeboten, die von Franzosen vor allem in den Ferien besucht werden. Dort findet man ebenfalls sehr leicht Sprachpartner

Astoria und viele andere Exkursionen.

The facilities were good. The teaching was well adapted to the needs of students

I was told to report at 8.30 am on the 1st day but nothing happened until 9.20. After that the testing and placement took all morning and could have been much better organised.

the professors are excellent

Quality of teachers

To avoid accomodation at Erasmus residence

To prefer summer courses

Good organisation, very friendly, good quality of lessons

Don't miss the entertaining program!

Choose to stay at with a host family!

I can recommend this school if you are serious about learning French. Very dedicated and qualified teaching staff.

School offers alot of different leisure activities - if you have time to attend apart from class and homework. The city itself had not much to offer. It caters more to retirees and tourists.

Other students.

commnication with different people, including native speakers, during the classes and at social activities

don't be shy, participate in as many group activities as possible

The school/teachers put a lot of efforts to teach french with multimedia technologies and interactions with french people.

Don't miss the zoo!

the multiculturalism of the student body. The ease of living in Royan.

the animation programm

Carel is a wonderful place to study a language, to meet nice people and to have party. Almost every evening there is very varied animation programm so you get to know the other students very soon. The students are from all over the world and it´s very interesting to meet all. But you should pay attention about the placement test. So don´t hesitate to change the course, no matter if you are told that it is not possible. I think the best place to stay is either with a family (if you get along) - very good for learning French - or in an appartement. The Erasmus house is ok but not very comfortable. Royan is quite small and in the summer very touristic, the beach is a bit crowded, but anyway it´s great to be at the sea and in the evening there are lots of concerts and other animation. You shouldn´t miss the nice French restaurants, even if they are expensive and a bit touristic.

The animation programm

The animation programm

The quality, level and delivery of the chosen language content, as well as the wide variety of very interesting social activities.

I feel that it is absolutely necessary to spend some time with a guest family during your stay.

I hear that Royan is quite a "dead" city in the winter months, but I arrived in Spring just before the summer boom. Therefore, slowly more students were attending the school CARAL and this resulted in increased activities. For any meaningful language progress, I feel that it is necessary to connect with a French family and to NOT cluster with people from your home country/language. I had an all-around amazing, but short (2-week) experience. This was, in part, due to luck since my guest family was quick amazing and lived directly next to the school. The region around Royan has much to offer and I wish that I could have stayed much longer.

Classrooms, friendly staff and teachers

accomodation with host family, excursion La Rochelle

Two weeks language course is the minimum. Better wood be one month or more if possible.

the teacher and the staff in general

the global quality of carel

I'm very pleased to have chosen Carel

The whole atmosphere and the spririt of learning and teaching at the CAREL.

Join the animation programm and be open for everything!

I loved the library; it is very good and perfect for some extra research or just for fun (tv, books, newspapers etc.). Big bonus for the animation programm and the whole staff: very friendly and always there for answering questions and supporting the students. Good mix of different methods!

in the fall and winter there are a lot fewer students

voice your comments to the teacher, they are very receptive to suggestions
