French Language Schools in Lyon - Ranking 2022

Lyon is a 'young' city with a high proportion of students. The people overall are very friendly and relaxed, even if I disregarded the traffic rules (no honking). A good mix of representative districts with stately houses and many small galleries, shops, cafes, bistros ... A little more cleanliness with regard to dog poo would make the city even more lovable.

Hard to give accurate picture since the city was quite empty of locals - a great many people had gone on holiday and many venues/shops/museums were closed.

Better than Paris because it is more compact. Lots of young people

I like Lyon, have been there several times and will go back again

A very beautiful city with very friendly, easy-going people

friendly teacher, demanding lessons, very intensive

Course: Intensive French Course - 3 weeks
Student age: 71 years

The teachers were helpful and the methods were very good. I liked coming with the students and and becoming acquainted with them.
It wasn't good, when I had to repeat the same course two times, so I think it´s better to make the time from the beginning of the course suitable for the student.

Lyon is a fantastic city worth exploring every nook and cranny. I had lots of time after my morning classes to take in the sights and enjoy my summer in the city.
No food is allowed to be eaten inside the classrooms, so come to class with a full stomach and bring a snack for the break.

Course: Semi-Intensive Course - 2 weeks
Student age: 26 years

You have to be aware that the choice of subjects for teaching is very outdated from an educational point of view. For example, the teachers choose a topic to cover over a week. If this topic is completely unknown or uninteresting for a student, the learning effect is extremely low, as understanding the materials is only possible if you have a basic knowledge of the topic. The teaching materials with which one should actually learn the language were unfortunately chosen extremely poorly and the learning effect is practically zero in individual cases due to weekly one-sided topics.
