Learn French in Antibes, a lovely resort located on the French South-East coast between Cannes and Nice, on the French Riviera.
The city is divided into two parts. Encased by 16th-century ramparts, the historic old town is home to traditional shops and attractive restaurants. The more modern Juan-les-Pins district, located by the sea, is famous for its endless summer nightlife and beautiful beaches.
This very popular French course allows you to learn French in the morning, and get to know other students whilst keeping weekends and afternoons free to explore the French Riviera.
From Antibes, it’s easy to take the train and explore the cities around like Saint-Tropez and Cannes or Italy.
Our French language school in Antibes has more than 30 years of experience and its quality is recognised by many official bodies (Professional consortium of French as a Foreign Language Providers, Eaquals, Label Qualité, Qualité FLE from the French Government, etc.).
Courses take place in a traditional southern French provencal building, surrounded by beautiful gardens, just a few minutes’ walk from old Antibes, and close to shops, restaurants, and nightlife.
The school’s French curriculum is based on the communicative approach and direct method— it is very immersive and emphasizes speaking and conversation. Classes are taught in French and all language skills are integrated through various activities in and out of the classroom.
Learners and teachers utilize French conversation, context, and visuals to ensure understanding of vocabulary and grammar. Students naturally acquire the language as they are pushed to learn through practice.
From small group classes ranging from 2-6 people to private classes tailored to your specific needs, our partner school provides quality immersion programs led by certified, native French teachers.
Our French school in France offers intensive French programs tailored to all kinds of learning objectives. French courses are available for travelers and language lovers, as well as university students. We offer both small group classes and 1-on-1 private lessons for all levels ranging from Beginner French to Advanced and Fluency.
Pair your French program along with accommodation in a host family, and you can be sure to quickly move up the learning ladder.
Note • French level test must be submitted to us at the latest by the Thursday prior to the starting date in order to begin lessons on Monday morning. If the test has not been submitted before arrival, it will be done at our school on Monday morning and lessons will start on Tuesday.
Learning French is not just about attending classes, it is a true linguistic and cultural experience. Therefore, through different activities, we encourage all our students to practice their French outside the classroom while many times forging friendships that last a lifetime.
Every week our french language school organises activities for an extra cost. Students can practice paddleboarding or visit a charming typical city by taking part in an excursion to St Paul de Vence for example. Usually, the school let the students know about these activities and the booking will be made with them.
You also have the possibility to take the train to visit the beautiful French Riviera. Every half hour, there are trains to Cannes, Nice, Monaco or Italy.
Accommodation is from the Sunday prior to the course start date until the Saturday after the end of the course (you can book extra nights).
If you want an authentic cultural experience with a French family, to learn new vocabulary or local expressions, and immerse yourself in the French culture, staying with a host family is the best choice for you. We recommend it to all of our students.
Our local host families are vetted and chosen rigorously by our french language school partner. Most of them have been hosting for years. The location of their homes is not further than 30 minutes on foot or by public transportation from the school.
Family stays include a shared room with a shared bathroom. Private rooms are also available as an upgrade to the program. In shared rooms, we try our best to place our students with people of the same gender and of a similar age who does not speak the same native language.
Only breakfast is included in the standard price.
If you are over 25 years old, the shared bedroom is not available, only if you make a booking together.
Arrival and departure transfers are included with the host family accommodation from/to Nice airport & Antibes train station
*Please, note that transfers are only included during the weekend.

All the staff at the french school were friendly and supportive, teen and adult learners from all over the world and a fantastic host family. Antibes was a wonderful town, so much to see and do and such a choice of restaurants. I will definitely return.
I can recommend this school to anyone who are serious about learning French. The teachers are very skilled and professional, and you will be surprised how fast you can progress from week to week compared to studying French in your home countries. I would recommend taking also the afternoon classes, which are in smaller groups with focus solely on speaking, and the host family experience is great also. Truly an excellent school in a beautiful setting.
