Canada | France | Switzerland

CANADA

Quebec has something very unique to offer: a French speaking province in the heart of a an English speaking country!  But language isn't the only characteristic that sets this region apart; with a history that dates back more than 400 years and a distinctly European flair, Quebec is like no other place in North America! From the fashionable cafes and boutiques of Montreal to Quebec City's fortified walls and elegant 15th century buildings, you'll feel that you are miles away from English speaking Canada.

Quebec City - Homestay Program for 14 - 17 year olds* - Learn French in Canada's oldest all-French city.  This French + multi-activity program offers something for learners at all levels.

Montreal - Homestay/Residence Program for 13 - 17 year olds - A perfect balance of morning classes combined with afternoon activities planned around the many rich and entertaining summer festivals Montreal has to offer.

*Younger students who are mature for their age may enroll in this program on a special request basis; however, we feel this program is best-suited to students 14 and over.

There are many reasons why France is one of the world's most visited countries! There's Paris with its museums, famous monuments and endless shopping; there's the stately university town of Montpellier; and there's Cannes with its sunny days, sandy beaches and stylish boardwalk cafes, to name just a few. If you want to see first hand a country that has had an undeniable impact on our sense of fashion, food and fun, France is the place for you!
