studied French Academic preparationFrancés para la vida
Si buscas una escuela con corazón, debes venir a la AF de Montpellier. Yo llegué por 3 meses a hacer un curso intensivo y la pandemia hizo que me quede en Francia casi un año. Fue una situación caótica pero muy beneficiosa, dónde la escuela me ayudó en todo lo que estuvo dentro de sus posibilidades. Pude estudiar fránces todo ese tiempo con profesores realmente maravillosos que siempre estuvieron atentos a mi forma de aprender, los temas que eran interesantes para cada uno y para el grupo, y a brindar actividades culturales que te ayudan a generar entendimiento y debate, porque aprender fránces es aprender una nueva forma de ver el mundo.
La escuela me ayudó a buscar alojamiento también; el lugar y la persona que me asignaron fue un acierto total, no tuve nada más que hacer que enviar mis preferencias de vivienda y me alojaron con mi hermosa Francoise, una pintora llena de vida con la que pasé el confinamiento en medio de conversaciones, correcciones de pronunciación y debates sobre la vida.
Por otro lado, Montpellier es una ciudad hermosa, de un tamaño mediano, con gente amable e internacional, entre el mar y la montaña, cerca a España e Italia, a 3 horas de París, cerca de viñedos y olivos yun centro histórico lleno de restaurantes, bares y terrazas pintorescas y divertidas, con mucho street art y mucho sol durante el año.
Estoy super contenta y agradecida por la pedagogía, los profesores, la coordinación de cultura, el acompañamiento en el aprendizaje. Llegué a aprender francés y regresé a mi pais con una familia francesa, amigos de todo el mundo para la vida, un entendimiento profundo de la lengua y un corazón cambiado por una gran experiencia. Desde el fondo de mi corazón, recomiendo mucho la escuela.

Montpellier exceeded all my expectations. I will be back next year:)
The location of the school is great, so are the people who work there.
