I had taken intensive language courses before arriving in France but then it became apparent that it's difficult to follow and understand at first becuase of the different accents.

I speak French fluently so it was alright. However, some teachers do speak quite fast but due to the fact that there are also French native speaker, French classes and friendly people around I don't think it's much of a problem. Besides, the first few weeks are going to be difficult everywhere.

My comprehension improved by at least 30%. Listnening to the radio everyday helped. I wish I had made more of an effort to interact with more french students.

Because there were so many foreign students, the language spoken mostly was english however our chance to do a work placement was a great advantage.

The language is a major part of the experience. The aim of the course is to be bilingual (French/English) by the end of the two years spent here. Being immersed in the language and the culture is definitely an advantage in learning a foreign language.
