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.

The space was beautiful and well organized and super easy to get to and find. Highly recommend taking a class at Le Foodist. My friends who live in Paris that I stayed with, I've told them to go themselves, do an outing with work colleagues, or let other visitors of theirs know about Le Foodist. Stephane was a great instructor who made everyone feel comfortable. He spoke at least three languages and felt his English was impeccable and extremely easy to understand. I appreciated how intimiate the class size was, how quick and straightforward the instruction was, and the hands on help Stephane provided when requested. I'm not the best piper and do wish there was more time to practice. Additionally, not having the recipes where you could write notes as we went would have been much more helpful. Finally, I think physically showing us when the macarons are done and letting us view from the oven and/or touch would have been helpful.
