Student testimonials

Review Icon

I started French classes in April 2025. I didn't know any French at first, but thanks to my teachers, I improved my level. I am currently taking French classes at the B2 level. Thanks to Anne and my other teachers, I have made great progress. The quality of the education is really good, and we have very active classes where we do lots of speaking and games. As a result, I can now speak French and communicate. All the EP staff are very kind and genuinely care about the students. Thanks to Amy, many activities are organized in Paris every week. I have met many people here and made new friends. They helped me not only educationally but also emotionally (thanks to Julia, Amy, Anne, and Nora). I will be forever grateful to this school for helping me on my journey of learning French and gaining new experiences in Paris.
