Art and Language Stays


The Art and Language stays offer you a triple training: an engraving course, a French crash course in a Spanish environment.


Immersion in a language is the quickest way to learn it. By spending several hours a day in a French environment, you take advantage of a homestay through a unique formula.


The practise of an artistic discipline allows you both access to a better self-knowledge and to express your personality. In addition, to discover a new means of expression decreases the feeling of frustration that appears when the new language your are studying does not allow you to express yourself.


A week stay takes place from Monday morning to Friday evening.
The standard schedule of a study day is as follows (short pauses occur regularly):


  • Engraving or French (according to the group) : 9:00 - 12:30
  • Lunch; conversation in French or Spanish : 12:30 - 13:30
  • Engraving or French (according to the group) : 13:30 - 17:00
  • Assisted study period : 17:00 - 17:30

The students who choose a four week stay may take part to the activities and trips organized on Saturdays and Sundays and led in the language they are studying. (Details and prices are communicated during the stay.)
