testimonials

Our students talks about us…

« When I was a kid, right the way through to university, studying French in Paris was one of my biggest dreams. So I found a programme in the U.S. that gave me the opportunity to study at the CCFS. Then my dream came true and I could concentrate on learning French. I started at the CCFS at B2 level, and right from the word go the teachers were friendly and always happy to help. The courses are thorough, including grammar and literature lessons for every level. The students in the classes come from around the world, so we share our cultures as well as the experience of learning French. I’m now preparing to sit the TCF and DALF C1, and I hope to join a French university this fall to finish my bachelor’s degree. »

« À mon avis, quand on apprend une nouvelle langue, on obtient la liberté. C’est cette liberté que m’ont donnée les CCFS et la France : ils m’ont donné l’amitié, de nouvelles expériences et la connaissance d’un monde globalisé. Merci beaucoup. »

« Thank you to the CCFS. The courses are interesting and the teachers are great. It was a busy and very educational summer, I learnt a lot. »
