The school was VERY centrally situated which was great. The teacher, Carole, was superb - I was very lucky to have been allocated to her class; my flat had “good news”/“bad news” - it was centrally situated, 1 minute from the school, but was VERY noisy from the restaurants below, and the flat itself could have done with improvement eg with the microwave, a door handle on the door inside and outside (as you had to open and shut it with the key), the saucepan handles were falling off, but it was fun living right in the centre thanks. Very welcoming staff and very friendly too. The trips were good too. My teacher, Carole, was superb! Good and varied trips with knowledgeable guides. Many thanks for arranging a great course for me.

Im Gebäude Nr 34 befindet sich mitten im Gang eine Treppenstufe nach oben und später eine nach unten. Am ersten Kurstag hielt ich beim Verlassen von Klassenraum 11 Ausschau nach dem Damen-WC, bemerkte die Stufe nach unten nicht und stürzte auf den linken Arm und den Rücken, sodass ich für mehrere Wochen behindert im Gehen und Bewegen sein werde. Die Situation ist fahrlässig-gefährlich. Das Studio ist gut für junge Studierende geeignet, einfach, ohne grossen Komfort, aber alles Nötige ist vorhanden. Ich konnte die enge, gefährliche, verwahrloste Wendeltreppe am Anreisetag mit Koffer in den 2. Stock kaum bewältigen (am Abreisetag half mir Martine), nach dem Unfall war es noch schwieriger. Ausserdem ist es tags und nachts in der Umgebung sehr laut.

El curso fue genial, aunque quizá eché de menos que tuvieran un programa más organizado de todo lo que se iba a ver, pero entiendo que es algo complicado cuando los estudiantes van y vienen todo el tiempo. Montpellier fue un lugar excepcional, con muchísimas actividades por hacer y muchísimas opciones y lo único negativo es que es bastante caro. Lo único malo es que no tenía aire acondicionado y lo pasamos realmente mal ya que este verano ha hecho una temperatura horrible en Francia Las clases, en general, eran bastante entretenidas, y se hablaba mucho, lo cual hizo que tanto mi escucha como mi oral mejorara. Era un apartamento privado y estaba bien, pero me lo entregaron un poco sucio, y eso no lo llegaron a solucionar, tuve que limpiarlo yo.lo único malo es que no había aire acondicionado (como en la mayoría de edificios antiguos) y lo pasé bastante mal porque además era el último piso y daba el sol todo el día. Las escaleras eran muy antiguas, estaban un poco derruidas, eran pequeñas y un poco peligrosas, pero en general el piso estaba bien. Ofrecían muchas actividades (ponían un panel lleno todas las semanas con todo lo que podías hacer durante esa semana) tanto culturales como de ocio, y las excursiones estaban genial, muy bien organizadas, lo pasabas realmente bien (el guía era fantástico).

« He estado seis semanas (durante mis vacaciones) lejos de los míos, haciendo un curso de idioma, esforzándome, aprendiendo... por tanto en cuanto al ámbito personal me siento muy orgullosa, pero aún más en el 'profesional', ya que llegué sin hablar mucho el idioma y he vuelto prácticamente pudiendo comunicarme bastante bien, comprendo también bastante bien... en general la experiencia ha sido muy satisfactoria. »

Montpellier ist sehr klein, für 5 wochen nicht so geeignet Die lehrpersonen sind untereinander nicht organisiert, wenn lehrperson wechselt, dann macht die nächste nicht weiter mit dem stoff sondern fangt mit dem eigenen programm an. Auch die einstufung in die niveaus war sehr fragwürdig, ich war im b1 kurs mit leuten, welche kaum französisxf sprachen

City was a little run down and not much to do See teaching According to the certificate I recieved at the end of 10 weeks, I am now an A2 level speaker. This is despite the fact I was in b1/b1+ classes and can my french is better than A2. They did not let us know our progressuon throughout the weeks and the standard of teaching varied hugely from teacher to teacher. First accomodation was pretty but way to far to travel. My second accommodation was in a much better location but we didnt have hot water for over two weeks and the wifi was unreliable. Also with the second accommodation I had practically no contact with the landlord. Eugénie, who delt with me, was great in getting me new accomodation so thank you!

MONTPELLIER! What can I say about my stay in this big town? I have only good memories of it. The day I arrived and met my host family, who welcomed me like a member of family. The people from throughout the world that I met during the course, and all of the beautiful friendships that grew in such a short time. The classes in the mornings, which were never boring, and the brilliant teachers. The lunches with friends and the busy afternoons: sightseeing in Montpelier, beach, shopping, cinema, exploring the surrounding villages... and spending the evenings with friends, enjoying the nice city atmosphere with people from all over the world! Every Friday in summer, the city fills with people, who drink local wine and eat local specialties. It was an amazing experience which I hope to repeat. Awesome memories and friendships. A wonderful French-learning summer!

My name is Fabián and I came to Montpellier to learn French. I am very happy with the school (IEF): I am learning the language pretty fast and teachers are very professional. I met many people from all over the world; there is a good nationality mix! The school is in the heart of Montpellier: public transports are very convenient and the surroundings are full of bars and restaurants where I can have lunch. Montpellier offers many hotspots, such as the Arc de Triomphe, Place de l’Europe, the Botanical Gardens, Place de la Comédie, the historical centre and the mountain of Saint-Loup. I highly recommend visiting all these places! The city is full of tourists and young people – it’s been an unforgettable experience so far!

Duration: 7 weeks

Learning French at the Institut Européen de Français was a great experience. I refreshed my French and got ready for my third Erasmus term. Classes are interactive and practical. Life in Montpellier is quiet, but – as it’s a student town – there is always something to do.

The best way to immerse yourself fully in the French language and culture is to live with a host family. Discover the ways and customs of the French from the inside and practise what you have learned in class in total immersion.

Located around 10 to 20 minutes from the school, the apartments generally accommodate two to three students or locals each. Each student has a single room and shares the kitchen, bathroom and living room with the others. This is an inexpensive option which will also allows you to meet other international students.
