French immersion in Brittany*:
(Proposal - Feedback form at the end)
French Immersion Week:
Embark on a unique 7-day stay in northern Brittany, designed for French language and culture enthusiasts. This program combines in-depth classroom learning, cultural exploration, and authentic experiences in an exceptional natural environment. Each morning, immerse yourself in a variety of Breton themes (and yes some grammar and spelling too!). In the afternoon, continue with hands-on activities directly related to your classes, allowing you to experience French as closely as possible to the local environment.
Improve and enjoy practicing your French
Each morning, under the guidance of an experienced French instructor, you’ll see your language skills flourish and your confidence in speaking grow, all within a welcoming and encouraging atmosphere. The morning’s theme seamlessly connects to the place you are in, making your learning relevant and exciting.
Synergy between lessons and local activities
Each morning lesson is devoted to a cultural aspect of Brittany—whether it's Neolithic history, bird migration observation, exploring Breton cuisine, or immersing yourself in artistic and cultural traditions. In the afternoon, you'll participate in a hands-on activity directly linked to the morning’s theme: crêpe-making workshops, visits to megalithic sites, discovering the Seven Islands (a bird protected area), learning Breton dance, or exploring local towns and expos. This approach allows you to fully live the language while deepening your cultural experience.
The natural environment here is truly remarkable
We will be staying on the coast where the tides transform the landscape twice a day. The Pink Granite Coast offers breathtaking views, inviting you to wander, discover picturesque villages, and venture into unspoiled nature—ensuring a complete change of scenery, unique interactions, and constant inspiration.
Authentic encounters and exchanges
Throughout your stay, participants immerse themselves in Breton culture during visits to local markets, crêpe-making workshops, traditional fest noz gatherings, and informal conversations. These moments encourage respect for each person’s pace and foster openness to a remarkable and captivating local culture.
