I had tried Rosetta Stone French but struggled with understanding even basic verb grammar. So when…read morean opportunity to be in Paris for a few months presented itself I was thrilled, but I had no idea which language school to pick! Looked on here and on Trip Advisor - Langue Appart' was rated highest on both. So I signed up hoping it would be good; instead it was excellent! I wound up taking a bit less than three months of classes and was stunned at how much progress I made thanks to Mélanie's teaching. She has a tremendous gift for knowing the right level of challenge for students, and explained all of the concepts clearly. The other students in my class and I were serious about becoming fluent, so she pushed us much harder than I expected, but was also endlessly patient even when we forgot things repeatedly. It was wonderful to learn more quickly than I had imagined was possible - all the French friends I made in Paris were shocked at how good my French was for such a short period of study! :) I also loved my fellow students - our classwork kept us engaged because in addition to useful phrases and words we were given the opportunity to share (with no pressure to be deep) about ourselves, our cultures, and our perspectives using whatever grammar we were learning at the moment. Even more fun because we were all from different parts of the world! I don't usually write reviews but am happy to make an exception for Langue Appart'! PS. The other teacher, Michael, seemed like he was really good too; I met some of his students and they were very happy with their experiences as well. And Carolina, the admin, was incredibly supportive and went out of her way to be generously helpful to me multiple times. If you choose to go, j'espère que vous apprécierez aussi!

I couldn't have been happier with my experience at Langue Appart'. I was there for two weeks…read more taking group classes in the morning with Bryan as well as two private lessons a week with Melanie. I am an Intermediate student B2. The group lessons were well structured with clear goals and a little homework to reinforce what we had learned. Bryan let the conversation flow (all in French) and then took a pause to correct us individually - pronunciation, grammar and expression. It was an intimate class and I felt really at ease - challenged but encouraged! And the other students were really great. The individual lessons with Melanie were more conversational. The first day we worked on "la vie quotidienne" - I was so shocked at the holes in my vocabulary when I tried to describe making pasta - but now I know. We discussed art, culture, politics (I was there during the election so it could not be ignored) and our last day we had a pot luck "pause dej." with students from all the classes. The school is small and the caring and really affordable. A perfect fit for me. Can't wait to return. Merci équipe Langue Appart'

Visited this restaurant in December 2010 during a weekend in Montmartre. It was our first night and…read morewe were very disappointed. It is a tourist trap. Our impressions were that it was quite un hygienic and disorganised. When ordering our food the majority of dishes were not available that day. When I received my starter it was not nice and half way through I spotted a small beetle on it...this made me feel quite sick, especially thinking that it had probably been there for a while and the food reheated with the minimum of care... We then paid for our wine and left. I wouldnt suggest going here but if you do I hope you don't experience what we did.

This was my jam on our trip to Paris! I couldn't wait to visit Sorbonne and get into the Pantheon…read more As a social studies teacher, I do an entire unit on the Enlightenment period, my favorite period in history, pulling the population out of the darkness of superstition and traditions into the LIGHT of political theories and sciences. I couldn't wait to see my heroes Voltaire and Rousseau's final resting place as well as Victor Hugo and Marie Curie. We took a lengthy walk around the Sorbonne neighborhood..........absolutely beautiful! The entry fee for the Pantheon was 13.00 I think. Well worth the visit. The first floor is devoted to epic artwork and amazing statues. Descend into the catacombs to visit the internment of France's most influential thinkers and revolutionary heroes. Honestly, it was a pretty emotional experience for me. This was a 10 star event that should not be missed on any trip to Paris. I could do this 100 times and love every minute.

What a great experience at Le Foodist. This was booked for us through "My Private Paris", as a…read moremorning market tour and cooking class for lunch. Luc was our guide and chef, and did a really great job. We enjoyed shopping for ingredients at the market just a few blocks away from the Le Foodist kitchen. Once back to the kitchen, Luc gave us the run down of what we would be making. Instructions were clear, and we all worked together to put a 3 course lunch together. I even learned a few cool new techniques such as a simple "sous vide" by tightly wrapping chicken in plastic wrap and cooking in hot water. Fun, educational and delicious. They offer a variety of different classes and I would highly recommend when visiting Paris.

She was such a great teacher and had us laughing at our poor techniques (my boyfriend managed to make a baguette look like a peanut, and I made a dinner roll that looked like a volcano with a dimple!) and helped fixed our techniques so our breads came out looking professional! This was the highlight of my trip to Paris and I truly cannot wait to come back to take more classes here. Thank you Florence, for your hospitality and advice, we truly loved everything about your class!
