Language trips broaden your horizons and combine learning with variety and vacation. And those who are relaxed are known to learn easier and faster. A language study trip to France therefore offers you the best conditions for learning French from scratch and putting all your new knowledge into practice straight away. Whether you're shopping, in a café, in a museum or talking to the locals, you'll be able to apply your knowledge and communicate in French everywhere during a language study trip, which is certainly the easiest, most effective and most interesting way to learn a language.

Which location is right for you certainly depends on many factors. For example, you may already have one or two favorites or you may already know very well that only one city is suitable for your language study trip. However, it is also quite possible that you have no preferences and are completely open to suggestions. In this case, you can narrow down your search for your language study trip in France by asking yourself a few questions and clarifying them for yourself. It is always helpful to know what you expect from the city you are traveling to. Are you primarily interested in a language course and learning the French language, or do you want a wide range of leisure activities? Do you want to go to a big city or would you prefer a rural idyll? Are you longing for sheer endless expanses or the warm waves of the Mediterranean?

There are first-class language schools in all locations for anyone who wants to learn a new language or improve their existing knowledge during a language study trip to France. They offer different French courses that vary in intensity and duration, such as standard courses, intensive courses or diploma courses. Of course, how much you ultimately learn always depends on you, your motivation and willingness to learn. But it also depends on other important factors, such as the qualifications and experience of the teaching staff. You can find more information on this in "What should I look out for when choosing a provider?".

A language school and a language course should always meet your own needs and expectations so that you can learn in a relaxed atmosphere. It is therefore important that you inform yourself thoroughly about all the important aspects of the language study trip and compare the individual offers. The target group of the schools and French courses is an important point of reference that will help you narrow down your choices. At the age of 28, you probably don't want to spend your language study trip in France exclusively with young people between the ages of 13 and 18, just as you don't want to spend most of your time with senior citizens when you're 18. The age grouping is certainly an important point if you want to meet like-minded people with whom you can enjoy chatting outside of course times.

Another point is the focus of the course. Find the course you are looking for and compare the general conditions for it among all the schools you are interested in. Class size, lesson duration and number of lessons are not the same everywhere. The infrastructure of the language schools in France should also be taken into account, as well as the training and further education of the individual teachers. What experience do they have and what qualifications do they have in teaching French to foreigners? It is also important to know what accommodation is available for language trips to France, how far it is from the school and what the transport links are like. Is it far from the sights, the beach and the city center? How many leisure activities are on offer and does the language school organize excursions or other activities for your language study trip in France? You can find out which other criteria are important when looking for the right French language school in the guide "How to find the right education provider" (see navigation point "Education help" above).
