Social & cultural activities
Learn French in context with social and cultural activities
In a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, we participate to workshops and talk about several life events in order to improve your vocabulary and, above all, your ease in expressing yourself orally.
Workshops are focus on your interests: for example, news, literary, film, board games, tasting or cooking workshops. While you take part to the workshops, you strengthen, in a natural way, your language skills.
These workshops can be organized by the school or by one of our partners.
French wine tasting
Naturellement Français is located in the heart of Languedoc, the world's largest vineyard with 40 000 hectares of land. This area, soothed by the hum of the cicadas, the strength of the wind, the heat of the sun, the subtle scents of the Mediterranean and the unspoilt country-side, lives at its wine pace of live for centuries.
I suggest you to meet passionate and responsible winemakers whose know-how has been passed from generation to generation and to treat your taste buds with a exceptional wines tasting.
