Verified reviews only, uncensored. All student opinions from students who booked a course at the school with LanguageCourse.net.
Liked
Great teachers, young and full of life. They clearly liked their job and that affects the students in a very positive way.
Insider tips about what future students should not miss Focus as much as possible on the homework you get the first weeks. This way you get into the language the fastest way possible. After a while, social meetings and happenings will probably start to crowd your afternoons but now you can try to speak French whenever you're doing something.

Other comments I went for the cheapest housing alternative; Chambed, and that's not bad at all! I had a nice bed and after sharing the apartment with a nice Swedish guy for 2 weeks, I got it to myself the following two weeks.
