AND HOW DO WE DO IT IN FRANCE?

In France, a language stay is an excellent way to improve your French skills while immersing yourself in the local culture.

Complete immersion in the language and culture is the most effective method for learning French. The French appreciate this cultural experience and are generally open to sharing their daily lives with foreigners.
