Testimonials

I really enjoyed my stay at this language school. It helped me to learn French on an advanced level. The teachers were always very nice and could help with any questions. I can recommend it!

Mia Germany

Did a 2-week program there and greatly enjoyed my experience! They share a weekly calendar of activities where you can practice your French. I met amazing people through attending! My French professor was amazing and engaging. Would recommend!

Fernanda Brazil

I can’t say enough about the patience and enthusiasm of the teachers I had and also the administrative staff. There will inevitably be students who are slow or fast learners and those whose native language makes it very difficult to learn French, but they really try to accommodate everyone. The facilities are light, modern and clean and the learning materials supplied definitely helped. The location is great, next to the main train station and stops of all the tram lines. Only a 5 minute walk to the Place de la Comedie.

Jeff USA

Teachers were incredibly competent and explained every subject with ease and sufficient examples to help us understand. Classes were small enough for effective learning but big enough to include a diverse group of nationalities, ages and people.

Hayden UK

Great school, great courses and great teachers! I can highly recommend this to everyone. I was worried about being an older person learning with a much younger class, but I was delighted with the whole thing.

Martin UK

Studying at Accent Français in Montpellier was a very positive experience. I found courses tailored to my needs, very creative, motivating and dynamic teachers, as well as a wide variety of activities that enabled me to get to know this beautiful city in the south of France. Host family accommodation is always the best option for real immersion in the language and culture of a country.

Isabel Spain

I highly recommend Accent Francais if you plan to learn French in France. The school has enthusiastic and very skilled teachers, and very friendly and helpful staff. As a senior student you will meet more students at your own age from the middle of October. However the mix of ages and nationalities in the classes will give you a lot of positive experience.

Sigrun Norway
