“An excellent instructor. Convenient class times that everyone sticks to. Quick and efficient handling of paperwork.”
“I was disappointed to have to take a test after only two days of class, which meant missing two hours of the 15 scheduled. Unfortunately, that was how the school had planned it, but in a course lasting only 15 hours, I felt it was inappropriate and served no real purpose.”

The fact that for the price there were only 4 days a week and 4 hours of classes in the afternoon from Monday to Wednesday and three hours of classes on Thursday, so no classes on Friday, was not positive.”

“The one-to-one sessions were particularly good”
“The course I was assigned to for the two weeks was a 3-month course for the other participants. So I only got to see a small part of the overall programme.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: see above
Other comments: On the first day, it would have been useful to greet and introduce the students individually. Like, what do you want to achieve in these two weeks. Are there other courses that might be worth looking into? So I just floated along for a fortnight and then was gone....

Sabine Krafack, LanguageCourse.Net - Sep 20, 2023
Is the Etoile closed on public holidays such as May 1st? Will I get a refund for the holiday or will the hours be made up?
“The school is closed on May 1st and we do not offer any discounts on this day. Classes are canceled that day and will not be rescheduled.”
Mina, Course Consultant from Etoile Institut de Langue - Sep 20, 2023
What is the difference between L'Initial and Le Certifiant?
“The difference is that students can complete more than 5 weeks with the Certifiant and pass the TCF at the end of the course.”
Mina, Course Consultant from Etoile Institut de Langue - Sep 20, 2023
How do I get to school from Alesia station?
“There is a bus from Alésia - Maine to Sèvres - Babylone, then 3 minutes walk.”
Melanie Besnard, LanguageCourse.Net - Jun 16, 2023
I booked bed and breakfast with the host family. I will organize lunch and dinner spontaneously. I can cook and it would certainly be good if I had a kitchen at my disposal. I'm sure I'll eat out often too.
“He has access to the kitchen and the host determines the times of use. He will also have some cold and dry storage. Please note that breakfast is not a very important meal in France. It's usually economical, consisting of some bread or toast, butter and jam or cereal, and coffee, tea, or hot chocolate. If the guest wants to eat something else, he is responsible for purchasing and preparing his food.”
Katrien, from Etoile Institut de Langue - May 18, 2023
I have an aunt who lives outside of Paris. It's not sure yet, but I might have a weekend stay at my aunt's. Is this ok for the host family?
“It all works and spending the weekend with family (or traveling) is no problem.”
Katrien, from Etoile Institut de Langue - May 18, 2023
Will a level test be held before the start of the course?
“Yes, there will be a level placement test no later than 2 weeks prior arrival.”
Camille, Administration from Etoile Institut de Langue - Mar 02, 2023
I've seen feedback from other schools that people have had lessons cut because there weren't enough people. Could this also happen at the Etoile Institute?
“A minimum number of students per group is required for group courses. If this is not achieved, the school reserves the right to offer a reduced number of individual or mini-group lessons as an alternative. So if there are fewer students in your level, you get private or mini-group lessons that are much more intensive than lessons in a larger class. It would actually be an advantage, because in less time you will be able to learn even more individually and have more time for preparation and follow-up and more free time. I wouldn't say that lessons will be cancelled, on the contrary, the fewer students there are in the class, the better the quality of the lessons.”
Sabine Krafack, LanguageCourse.Net - Feb 16, 2023
What happens after I have finished the reservation and paid the deposit? Will I receive further information or confirmations? When will more detailed information about the course and the host family come out?
“As soon as I receive the complete application, I will forward it to the school, who will then confirm your booking within 2-3 working days. Then you can book the trip and send me your travel details for check-in. You will receive information about the host family at least 1-2 weeks before your arrival and can then contact them directly.”
Sabine Krafack, LanguageCourse.Net - Feb 16, 2023
Does the intensive 26 course only run from Monday to Thursday?
“Course with 26 lessons per week offers five to six lessons per day, Monday to Friday.”
