Discover the Best French Courses in France 🇫🇷

Immerse yourself, improve your French, and embrace real-life French culture.

Why learn French in France?

If you’re serious about improving your French, there’s no better way than studying in France – living the language, hearing it spoken in everyday life, absorbing culture, and making local friends. At LearnSpeakTravel we believe that immersion is the fastest, most enjoyable route to real-world fluency.

Here’s how it works: you pick the destination that suits you (and your age group), join a course designed for your level, stay locally (homestay, residence or apartment), and spend your downtime exploring cafes, museums, and city streets in French. Over time you’ll find you think in French, not just translate it in your head.

Destinations we offer

1. Paris – The Iconic Capital

Paris is the dream destination: landmark sights, rich history, world-class food, and an energy all its own. Studying French in Paris means you’re right at the heart of the culture.
At our Paris location you’ll find a standard course for adults (18+), with 20-30 group lessons per week, levels A1-C1, and start dates any Monday (except absolute beginners).
It’s perfect if you want serious progress as well as the cosmopolitan vibe of Paris.

2. Nice – Sun, Sea & French Riviera Charm

Study French with a relaxed Mediterranean backdrop. Nice offers a beautiful mix of beach-life and French culture: narrow streets in Vieux Nice, the Promenade des Anglais, and laid-back cafés.
Our Nice courses include 20 or 28 group lessons per week for age 16+, classes capped at 10 students.
Great for adults who want serious learning… and serious downtime too.

3. La Rochelle – Coastal Calm on the Atlantic

For students who prefer something quieter and slightly off the typical tourist-radar, La Rochelle is a gem. Historic harbour, maritime vibe, relaxed pace.
Courses here cater for age 16+ (standard) and also for seniors 50+. Example: 20 group lessons per week for seniors, fixed dates in May and September.
Ideal for adult learners seeking immersion without a huge city bustle.

4. Montpellier – Southern France with Student Vibes

French courses in Montpellier

Montpellier is vibrant, youthful, and sunlit: over 300 days of sunshine a year, a big student population, and a mix of medieval charm & modern architecture.
At our Montpellier location you’ll find standard adult courses (age 16+), and senior courses 50+ (fixed dates). For instance: 24 or 30 group lessons per week for adults; senior programme with 20 lessons + activities for 50+.

Age-Groups & Course Types

Juniors (School Holidays)

We run junior-friendly French courses during the holidays: full-time lessons plus social activities and excursions. These are perfect for younger learners who want to combine travel and language.
