Elfe - Ecole de Langue Française Paris, France
Pay less than booking at the school
What we like about the school
- Guided tours of Paris in the afternoons with a professional guide.
- Optional introductory workshops in French on wine-making by a professional sommelier.
- Excellent nationality mix. No student nationality makes up more than 5% of students.
What we dislike about the school
- An older average age per class than in other schools in the same city.
Location: Elfe - Ecole de Langue Française is a French language institute located in the multicultural city of Paris, France. The school is housed in the 2nd arrondissement with many restaurants, shops, links to public transport and attractions within walking distance. Such attractions include the Musée de Louvre, the Jardin du Palais Royal, the Jardin des Tuileries, the Domaine National du Palais-Royal and much more.
Course selection: The course selection of Elfe - Ecole de Langue Française includes something for students of all levels. In addition to General French programmes taught over several schedules and intensities, the school also supplies courses in specific cultural interests and activities, courses for working professionals and various programmes for specific learning.
Getting around: The school has many attractions and sites of interest within walking distance. The closest subway station to the school is the Les Halles station within a 3-minute walk of the school. The closest light rail station is the Chatelet Les Halles station, also a 3-minute walk from the school's front doors.
Social and cultural: Paris is a city like no other. Not only is it hailed as one of the world's fashion capitals, it also has a rich history and many beautiful and unique architectural pieces and sites of interest. This is in addition to the many museums and cultural places of interest. Elfe - Ecole de Langue Française embraces this with many cultural and social activities that students can take part in.

“Matthieu was my teacher for the first two days. He was great. I would go straight back again.”
“Elodie was my teacher for two days. It was a disaster because she put down a classmate and even ignored me because I asked 3 times to slow down because I couldn't follow her as fast. Authoritarian teaching style.”

Questions and answers about Elfe - Ecole de Langue Française
Are there lounges to eat something during breaks?
“There is a break room on the 3rd floor. Eating is not allowed in the classroom.”
Sabine Krafack, LanguageCourse.Net - Aug 16, 2023
Do you offer accommodations close to school?
“The average travelling time to the school from our host families is around 30 minutes. We don’t have any host that live within walking distance from the school as the 1st district of Paris is quite an expensive area.”
Sophie, Administration from Elfe - Ecole de Langue Française - Feb 21, 2023
