Learn French in Belgium

I already explained why I learn French in Belgium (read my post: why study French in Belgium), so I will now add a few schools in Belgium where you can get some French immersion.

learn french in BelgiumSince I am taking my French course in the northern part of Belgium, I also point out there is a cute caste in the east of Belgium where you can learn French in the city of St-Truiden : Velm Center

If you love nature, little mountains and rivers, then the south of Belgium, better known as the Ardennes is a perfect place to get an intensive French course like the one provided by Dialogue Center.

Another beautiful city in the Ardennes is Spa: well known for its spring (the amount of Spa bottles I have drank is kind of countless …:-) ) . In Spa you can follow French classes at Ceran Languages.

As soon as I find more interesting places where you can learn French in Belgium, I will add them to this list :-)
Feel free to add a comment if you have beel learning French abroad as well!

French language immersion

Did you know you could get a 3 month long French language immersion "for free"?

It needed the marriage of my niece to find out… At the small dinner we had afterwards, I spoke to her little sister who started like me: getting a French scholarship because nobody else is taking them and get your French studies paid for.

The only problem with studying something because there is a scholarship, is that you could end up doing something you don’t like too much. Now I am in love with the French language, but my little niece is in love with traveling. So she wants to become a flight-attendant. Standing on your legs with smile on your face for 12 hours in a row is not really my kind of fun but anyway…

The main thing is that she got offered a job at HSBC bank on one condition: she has to sign a 3 year contract. I would have been interested, but I want to continue my studies, so it’s one or the other, yet for her it would be ideal because…

… the benefit is: the bank will give here a 3 month long French language immersion in France as part of the training!
