French Course Montreal

Montreal
You only have to walk into the nearest store and be asked "Can I help you…est-ce que je peux vous aider?" to realise just how bilingual, and bicultural, Montreal is. Situated in Canada's eastern province of Quebec, this is the largest French-speaking city outside Paris and there's no doubt it's stolen a certain joie de vivre from across the water. Yet despite being locked in an English-French duel for some three centuries, it today exudes a friendly, almost romantic ambiance where the interaction of cultures only adds to the charm. A stylish blend of European and North American, with the great Canadian outdoors on its doorstep, and the mighty St Lawrence River running through it, Montreal is at once relaxed, exciting, warm and so very, very cold…which is why they've built a fantastic network of walkways and subways to ensure you never have to bear the snowy winters if you really don't want to.

Montreal School
Our school offers high-quality academic studies combined with an extensive social activities programme. Activities include playing sports together, going to a movie, visiting museums, art galleries and local festivals, dancing, and visits to nearby cities and the countryside. The classrooms are light and bright with ample space for each student. The school has an extensive Student Resource Centre with a multimedia facility containing computers, CD-Roms, audio materials, and a reading room.

The teachers are university graduates with training in second-language instruction. They use both proven traditional techniques and the latest teaching innovations. Out and About Before launching into Montreal’s must-sees, perhaps take note that the city is located on an island which is connected to the mainland on all sides by bridges. In the centre of this island is Mont Royal, an extinct volcano, and a great park of the same name with views across the whole area. You’ll probably spot the Grand Prix racetrack on Ile Notre Dame for a start.

The centre of downtown Montreal is then marked by Square Dorchester, or Dominion Square, a tranquil spot amid bustling streets and high-rise offices, hotels and shops. Continue along the waterfront and you’ll reach Vieux Montréal, the oldest section of the city and no doubt one of the most enticing…cobbled streets, old stone houses and hidden cafés evoking its 18th century past. And when it comes to going out, this is the place to be - with the longest opening hours in the whole of Canada, the bars down Rue Crescent and Rue Saint Denis won’t disappoint, and with a pronounced French influence the cuisine never fails to impress. Then coincide your visit with the summer Jazz Festival or the Montreal World Film Festival and that will really be the icing on the cake.
