I am Maryse, a French teacher with 30 years of experience, living in Semur-en-Auxois, Burgundy—a town just 1 hour from Paris by TGV. I offer 1, 2, or 3-week immersion programs for all levels starting from A2. If you are still at A1 level, I recommend taking French classes with Anthony before your stay. Rather than a long introduction, here is some feedback from my students:
How intensive are the classes? Maryse is a professionally trained and skilled teacher. She made me work hard every day and focused on my particular areas of weakness. She is very intelligent and organized.
How was the visit to the nearby villages? The medieval town of Semur-en-Auxois was much more interesting than I expected. It's a beautiful place to spend time relaxing. I recommend everyone visit Beaune and/or Dijon.
How much do you think you improved? I was already quite advanced, but Maryse helped me with difficult grammar points and pronunciation.
Was the stay comfortable? Yes, her home is clean and pleasant, the garden is beautiful too, and Maryse is a good cook! She was always very welcoming and helpful.
