EXCELLENT Based on 209 reviews Margaret Young2024-10-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was amazed at how much my French improved with the pace and mix of activities. Aldo learnt much of daily French life which was also helpful. All the tutors were very approachable and I was able to get over my fear of speaking in French. Elizabeth Goodburn2024-10-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I took an online course at LSF in 2022 as part of preparation for my TEF exam. The course was extremely helpful and included online oral practice as well as writing & reading. I had personal feedback from a dedicated teacher at LSF and benefitted very much from their help and the continuity.

Mon séjour m'a beaucoup plu: Accès super accueillant, des cours très variés avec des actions dans la rue (achats/interviews) et création de recettes typiques en groupe. L'équipe du bureau super gentille - tout le monde a aidé autant que possible. La ville et la région proche à la mer sont très intéressantes et agréables! Il y a plein de possibilités d'y passer un bon moment! Pourquoi une ètoile en moins? Le prof du cours avait un fort accent régionale. Au-delà quelques petitesses à l'égard du logement. En somme: J'aimerais vraiment y retourne! Ricardo López Hernández2024-10-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. J'ai effectué 4 séjours à LSF Montpellier, qui fait partie du groupe KLF. Le fait que j'ai répété est la plus grande preuve de ma satisfaction. Mon expérience a toujours été incroyable, de mon premier séjour pour obtenir le niveau B1, au dernier, deux ans plus tard, pour perfectionner mon français et préparer le C2. Les professeurs sont sympathiques et très professionnels, et j'ai toujours reçu une attention personnalisée de la part de l'école. Je conseille de compléter les cours standards en suivant des cours de conversation intensifs, ainsi que de loger en famille d'accueil pour tirer le meilleur parti de votre séjour. Je recommande cette institution sans hésitation! Christian C2024-10-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great school, nicely organized! Energetic teachers and a lot of opportunities to improve your language skills. Cathy Wood2024-10-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I chose to book just a week at the KLF Montpellier language school because I wasn't sure how I would feel about it, never having done this kind of thing before. At the end of the week I was sad to leave and really wished I'd booked for longer! My class was small, extremely well taught and very enjoyable. A great mix of conversation and some grammar. Even after just one week I felt I'd learned a lot and my confidence was boosted. My homestay was great too and I'd highly recommend this kind of accommodation for an immersive experience. Montpellier is a beautiful and interesting compact city with an excellent trainline for visiting other places along the coast. The KLF team made the whole booking experience easy and were patient about my many questions! I highly recommend! Raphaela2024-10-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very pleasant learning atmosphere in the center of Montpellier. The lessons are interactive and interesting and take place in small learning groups so that the teachers can focus on the pronunciation and progress of each student. I had a very enjoyable 3 weeks in Montpellier. I have grown very fond of Montpellier as it is a very popular city with many beautiful places. Highly recommended!
