Student reviews about French immersion
Immersion stay in Semur-en-Auxois
“I spent two incredible weeks in Burgundy. My teacher was wonderful and helped me focus on my own weak areas, including grammar, vocabulary and especially pronunciation, and offered insightful advice on how I can continue to learn and improve. Her enthusiasm for the French language, history and culture was infectious. Did I mention the food? My teacher is a wonderful cook and she happily prepared two weeks of delicious meatless meals to suit my needs. I would encourage anyone seeking true immersion in the French language and culture to consider an immersion like mine spent with Maryse. My visit exceeded all my expectations.”
