Presentation of the city
Cahors is an intimate but vibrant city of 20,000 inhabitants. It is located within a loop of the river Lot and therefore almost surrounded by water. The city owes much of its charm to its rich history dating back to the middle-ages. It also offers a wide range of shops and services, also cultural like public library, cinemas, theatre, concert halls.
Educational approach of the Center
Our approach to learning French is organic, similar to the way that you learnt your own language. The course puts emphasis on oral communication (speaking and listening, pronunciation). Some knowledge of grammar is essential, but you will learn this in the context of situations in everyday life.
Presentation of services
To enhance your experience, two afternoons are scheduled each week where you can discover the region and its culture with your tutor and hopefully put into practice some of what you have learnt. At Cahors it's possible to continue studying during the afternoon at the Library which has organized areas 'space' for language, multimedia including free internet access, news and press.
