What our students said about Toulouse
Toulouse is a great city! Be sure to check out as many food places as possible! Toulouse has some great spots, but the real sight seeing is outside in Albi, Carcassonne, Cordes-sur-Ciel, Foix, etc.!
Germany
The city is very beautiful. You won't get bored with so many parks, they are huge. Many monuments to see, although many closed due to subway works. But it is a very expensive city.
Spain
Toulouse is a good mix between a small city and a small town. It is super nice to be there and the people are very friendly.
Spain

What school directors said about Toulouse
As the capital of south-western France and the gateway to the whole Occitanie region, Toulouse offers you the perfect setting to learn French and to immerse yourself in the French language and culture! Toulouse is the 4th city of France and has been ranked the best French student city! It offers the perfect balance by keeping a spirit of « small town » with a rich cultural and historic heritage and its authentic « art of living », offering as well the energy of a big European city, creative, expansive and innovative.

My teacher, Carol... she was great! It's obvious that she has been teaching for years. She makes everything very dynamic.
I would love to repeat and have the same teacher.

The location is fantastic, easy to get to. There is a range of classes available depending on your needs. I learnt a lot. The actual course content was relevant to the class I was in. The presentation of classes was fun, focussed and inclusive for all nationalities. We had the best time.

The timetable was well used from 9am to 1pm with a 15 minute break. Seriousness, since in case of being late after the break, the teacher commented not to repeat it. The teacher corrected you if you mispronounced a word.
Ideal location and nice people.

The teacher was extremely good. I am an English teacher myself and found the teaching to be excellent in terms of pedagogy and didactics.
The room was well equipped (I would love to have that at my school) and the online platform is also very well designed. It could be a bit clearer, but the content and communication options are great!
Many thanks to Marie, the super nice and competent teacher! !!

Professionalism of the teachers.
Free coffee during the break. Better explanation about the city, groceries, restaurants, tourist attractions.
11 November 2019
Course: Super Intensive Course - 1 week
Student age: 53 years
The small class (6 students), that extra classes were held with more advanced students, and that all the staff took care to learn students' names.
I plan to return in a few months, which is the most definite recommendation that I can offer!

Course: Intensive Plus Course - 2 weeks
Student age: 39 years
The hands-on approach: we spoke a lot of french - and they rather let us make small mistakes as long as we were speaking freely.

That there was a lot of oral training during the lessons. I also enjoyed my individual hours and the phonetics lessons. I am very happy with my two weeks with you.
Last week there were no courses on the A1 level, so the group I was in at A2 level was composed of students with very different levels in French. For me, however, the hours worked well, because much emphasis was placed on oral training.

The lessons. The small groups. The language workshops in the afternoon.

Course: Intensive Plus Course - 2 weeks

Very skilled teachers, small groups.
The only drawback was that the young (Spanish) participants talked too much in common reading/study rooms.

No compensation for missed classes due to national holidays even though the cost per week was the same.
