The schoolhouse is beautiful and the environment in general I liked a lot. However, the seaside resort in itself does not motivate hard working on a language, so combining business and pleasure would be the right attitude for coming to Antibes.

The male manager of the residence was really nice and I had no specific problem except the new youg group was really noisy, out of control. some of the friends I met there were really frustrated with the people working in the residence and the cordinator of the school. I was just lucky that I did not have such a problem.

It was a real relaxte atmoshaere, although you have a lot to do and are forced to work very hard. The participants are all over the world and you have the opportunity to learn a lot about other countries and other social relations.

Take a printed confirmation of your booking to school.

If you have problems, don't worry, after you arrive at Antibes you'll forget. The location of the school and the French family are so good. If you talk with companions from your class or the other students, you will improve your French! Most students are adults and have work in their country so you can enjoy talking about a lot of subjects.

Try to get an apartment with a family. They are so nice and helpful. And for learning French it's great because you talk so much with them in the evenings. I've seen the apartments of the school like Castel Arabel - they aren't very nice.
