You’ll be staying in the center of the village Belvédère, only a few minutes walking distance from authentic shops, restaurants and cafes, and also hiking paths. You will have your own comfortable double room (one bed for 2 people + bathroom sink) and bathroom. If you would like to come with friends or family we will be very happy to welcome them as well. We have a spacious house and can host up to 6 people. You will enjoy having breakfast with views upon the valley and the mountains. Sharing all the meals with you will be a pleasure for us. I prepare generous homemade cooking, and with my husband, we love having guests. We don’t have a pet at home, and we are non-smokers, but you can smoke in the garden.
Bonjour, my name is Benedicte. I am a French native teacher. As my husband is from Netherlands, I spend my time between France and Netherlands, where I teach French to adults at the Alliance Française. We found in Belvédère our “white pearl”, and I am happy to share with you our lovely place.
LEARNING FRENCH
As a teacher at the Alliance Française I can teach for all levels, from Beginners to Advanced. All my courses are tailor-made for you. I will develop a program designed to reach your goals. To me, the French immersion in Belvédère at the teacher’s home is the best way to improve your French skills in an authentic manner. The courses are always in French, and as I am fluent in English and Dutch, I can effectively help you to communicate or understand the grammar, the vocabulary and learn more about our French culture.
We will have as many conversations as possible during our lessons, but also when sharing delicious meals and discovering the area with me as your guide. You will have French classes in the living room, with the view of the mountains, every morning and there will be a maximum of 4 students with the same level of French, and only if you come with your friend, partner or family members. I will use all my knowledge in teaching French to help you master the French language in no time!
