In 2025, Charlotte (19) spent a month in the Junior and Teens Summer Program at Accent Français before starting her studies at Durham University in England.
Charlotte talks to us about her immersive experience in Montpellier and the wonderful memories made during her stay.

Junior and Teens Summer Program
"The school was very organised and there were activities on offer each afternoon and a chance to make lots of international friends. It was fantastic to be able to be taught the language by people native to the area."

Experience the French culture and way of life with our host families
"My host Zineb was incredibly welcoming and kind. The accommodation was very comfortable and cosy. I was lucky to be in such a central location, only ten minutes walk to school. I loved meeting Zineb's family too, who were all lovely and so accommodating."
"Living with Zineb helped massively; it forced me to practise the language and step out of my comfort zone."

Discover historical gems around Montpellier
"I shared some wonderful memories and saw some amazing places I had always wanted to see, for example the Pont du Gard."

Meet new friends from all over the world with our Junior and Teens Summer Programme!
"A chance to make lots of international friends. I had some amazing experiences with my new friends."

Explore the beautiful city of Montpellier
"Walking into the centre every night, soaking up its lively and bustling atmosphere was a highlight. I had the most incredible four weeks, discovering the charming city of Montpellier and making some unforgettable memories!"

Sun-Filled Days in Montpellier
"The weather was glorious and I loved spending more time outdoors: I felt a lot fitter by the end of the programme than before."

Learn and grow with Accent Français
"The trip made me feel a lot more comfortable about travelling alone and learning a language; it instilled in me a new sense of independence and respect."
After such a great success last year, Charlotte has booked to return to Accent Français this summer!
Thank you Charlotte for choosing our school for your French immersion programme. It was a pleasure to have you with us for the 2025 Junior and Teens Summer Program and to share your experience with everyone on our blog!
