FIL is a French Language Summer camp since 2013. The organisation offers a true camp life immersion in France for teenagers from 11 to 17 years old. Located in the South of France (Eastern Pyrenees) between Perpignan city and the Spanish border, teenagers will enjoy the sun and the natural environment of the center in the middle of the mountains!
In an international and warm atmosphere, each student will perform speaking French as they share everyday life in the French language along with their team leaders and some French teenagers too.
A French language holiday at FIL runs from June to August, for 11 or 14 days stay. Each programme includes 21 hours or 27 hours of French workshops following a unique fun-learning method. The native French team is present 24/7 with the group and they are all double qualified in French teaching and as camp instructors. FIL also welcomes young French people in each group so everyone can speak in French with native speakers.
