French language exchange for children in France: French student exchange programs, language immersion for children. Year-long study abroad programs, foreign exchange student program for kids, French courses for teens..
En Famille International: En Famille International, located in Salignac (near Bordeaux), France, is an organisation offering high quality long term student exchange programs between France and other countries. Since 1978 we have been organising six-month cultural exchanges for young children. The two children spend a year together, 6 months in their own country and 6 months in their exchange partner's country.
Let your child study abroad, surrounded by the love of a caring family. It is by far the best way to learn a language. Education is of importance to you, particularly early childhood education and bilingual education. Trust our 30 years of experience and with our study abroad programme let your child enjoy a foreign exchange, give him/her the key to learn a foreign language, either the French language or German.
Six-month linguistic & cultural exchanges for young children aged 9 to 13: - Since 1978 we have been organising six-month cultural exchanges for young children. - The two children spend a year together, 6 months in their own country and 6 months in their exchange partner's country. - No child has ever had severe schooling problems due to doing an exchange. - Your children's education and up-bringing is of paramount importance to you. You are ambitious for them. Give them the opportunity of having a wonderful adventure that they will never regret and never forget.
For the first 12 years we only did our exchanges with primary school children. Then gradually more and more children told us that they wanted to do a second exchange in another country, learn a second language, and have another foreign brother or sister. So we complied with their wishes. However it is easier for a 9 or 10 year old to do a successful exchange than it is for a 12 or 13 year old. A young adolescent is more complex than a 10 year old who has confidence in their new family.
- 70% of our exchanges are done in primary school. - 25% in the first or second year of secondary school. - 5% afterwards.
Based in Nice, on the Côte d'Azur, our school has been one of the leading French Language schools since 1985. Each year we welcome about 3500 students from all countries. Our language immersion programs for juniors (9/17 years old) take place in Antibes, Cannes, Hyères, Biarritz, Nice, Paris, Provence and French Riviera (Côte d'Azur).
Our package is all inclusive and consists of a double room in a French family or a room in the residence, Full Board, Excursion and activity program. Enjoy learning French in beautiful surroundings and a relexed atmosphere. This is the place to gain new experiences, make new friends and have lots of fun. It will be the experience of a life-time!

• We make it easy for whole families to attend our school. Because all of our French language classes are held at the same time (from 9 a.m to 12.30 p.m), parents can drop their children off before the adult class, see them at the break time and pick them up after their French class in the same building.
