What our students said about Annecy

I'm not familiar with the nightlife in the city, but there are a variety of bars and even a casino. The city's real treasure can be found in its natural attractions. For those who enjoy sports, there are plenty of opportunities to explore the nearby lakes and mountains (such as the Alps). Activities such as ballooning, hang gliding, paragliding over Lake Annecy, climbing, hiking, swimming, sunbathing on the lake's beaches, stand-up paddleboarding, canoeing, water skiing, and horseback riding are all available.

5.0Claudia Brazil

Honestly, Annecy wasn’t quite what I expected, and I didn’t find the atmosphere or the people as welcoming as I’d hoped.

There are two options available for this course: 20 hours per week with 5 hours of extracurricular activities, or 15 hours per week. I chose the 15-hour option due to financial reasons. The syllabus is equally covered in both options, with a clear beginning, middle, and end (as it is a summer course), and all skills are taught. This is an important point to note, as not all schools follow this structure. The teachers are excellent, and due to the small size of the school, there is a sense of closeness between the management, teachers, and students. I appreciate the diversity of nationality and age, which allows for an enriching exchange of experiences and culture. Lastly, the cost-benefit ratio of this course is unbeatable, and I doubt anyone could find a better option.

The evaluations by students after they complete a course is excellent. The discount for using your website is also a great incentive. It also would be wonderful if the website would include more cities and a bigger selection of schools in each city.

The service of languagecourse.net is great, I booked already 3 schools and I can highly recommend it. In fact, I tell everybody I meet on my journey in South America about this website and how well everything is organized.
Gabriele Ragger verified client
I am very satisfied. I found more/relevant information on your webpage than on the school's website itself. It is the cheapest offer. I'm going to book my next course on your site soon.
