We regularly visit our host-families and it is their warm and caring nature which helps to contribute to the good reputation of CLE.

For those students that prefer more independence, the school suggests booking local apartments or hotels directly. Prices vary depending on size and location. Additional USD 70 placement fee applies. A tour is provided for students arriving at the beginning of a regular session, including a free guided tour of the city, its monuments and historical restorations.

Mary Dooley French Teacher. French Courses in Tours, France — Prices and CLE Accommodations Prices and Private room, half board: Private room, private bathroom, half board: I am very grateful to Isabelle our principal and Ludivine my class teacher for their commitment and dedication to teaching - alas I am starting to enjoy reading in French!
The entire experience was an absolute pleasure and I look forward to returning to CLE. The school is brilliantly organized to provide intense French training in a way that really works: I simply existed in French, absorbing the language and culture with each breath.
And with each step I took in this beautiful old city! Tours is ideally situated to let one enjoy the incredible richness of the Loire Valley -history, food, art, beauty, nature - it's all here. Don't hesitate - choose CLE as your language learning venue! Es waren perfekte Ferien, bzw. I just returned from a month long intensive course at Cle tours.
What a charming city and I can't say enough about the language program there. We met in small groups, students at the same level of proficiency from We did grammar, oral comprehension and gave reports on current events, political satire, and movies. On Tuesdays and Thursday's we met again in the afternoon for "ateliers" where we played games, did oral comprehension, and learned about French culture.
These went from 1: Then on Monday and Wednesday had private lessons from 1: The private lessons consisted of talking, oral comprehension, grammar, whatever you wanted to work on. The group I was with was fantastic. We were all adults mostly working on our French for pleasure. We were two Americans, three Swiss, and one Japanese. I rented an apartment around the corner from the institute which I found quite convenient.
There was some homework, but not so much that I didn't have time to visit the chateaux of the Loire valley on the weekends. I can't wait to go back next year! The academy is placed within the old centre of Tours beautiful and I must say it lives up to its reputation, as from the very first moment you feel a warm welcome from both teachers and students. Isabelle la directrice takes care of you and asks always for feedback with a smile on her face.
Teachers are great and classes are small size. There is a great atmosphere from the mixture of nationalities and ages of the students, who at the same time take very seriously the french immersion — giving the experience a great cultural enrichment. I also signed up for a host family and, after taking into account my needs, they found one excellent, making the experience unforgettable!
I will definitely come back! I have just finished a wonderful 3 months in Tours at CLE. Not only did my French come on enormously but I had great fun. The teachers are wonderful and very informative. The town of Tours has a lot to offer and for me spending 3 months at school in Tours was definitely the Best Of Both Worlds!! Would I go back?
Quels sont les livres français les plus populaires à recommander aux débutants ?
Summer is already earmarked for my return! My study at CLE was very short lived, unfortunately, as I was on a Foreign University Exchange and only had one week holiday, which I chose to use for further study. Yes, I'm a language nerd! The teachers are kind, happy and knowledgable and have the happy knack of pin-pointing your needs and filling them.
You will be glad you did. My study with CLE was short 2 weeks but it has helped me a lot! It was certainly beyond my expectation of regular language course. I liked the idea that CLE place students of the same level in the same class, yet CLE also offers workshops where students from different levels can mix. Of course, they would suggest which workshop is more suitable for which level. The course is well balanced, not only grammar but also cultural relevance and current usages. This, in particular, extended my vocabulary a lot.
The teachers are very professional and they really helped me figure out which area could use a bit extra work. Last but not least, I really appreciate the small class size max. This really allows us to practice, practice and practice. Attending courses can sometimes be daunting when you've gone beyond your school days!
We all need a little courage sometimes to go into the unknown. So if you are debating about this course in the slightest - just take the step and go for it. I am glad that I did.
For this course has many truly welcoming positives: In addition I found Tours to be a great, relaxed city, beautiful architecture, old square with restaurants etc and a city which is easy to walk around and very cycle friendly. I aim to goo back - next time I would stay with a host family as everyone who did had very good words to say about them. I have just completed 4 weeks immersion at CLE and cannot speak more highly of my experience there. The pace, the focus, the attention to detail depending on an individual's needs was truly excellent.
Everyone brought different levels of competence to the class - for instance, some could speak fluently, but were weaker at grammar or vice versa. Our teacher always focused her questioning on the right person. On top of this, the lessons were fun and left us wanting to do our best for ourselves and for her. Sometimes the homework seemed a lot, but it was never overwhelming. I enjoyed the challenge of completing it whilst also maintaining a healthy social life! I could not speak more highly of our teacher: My one-on-one teacher was a complete joy to be taught by and the hour just flew by always.
She was excellent at correcting me without 'stifling' my enthusiasm. The school is very well run and the Directrice is always looking for ways to further improve the detail. She regularly asks for student feedback which is often acted upon, and the staff clearly enjoy working as a part of her team. Zudem ist das Durchschnittsalter Der Schulunterricht am Morgen ist strukturiert aufgebaut und fokussiert stark auf das Schulbuch. I have just completed a wonderful 3 weeks at CLE in Tours. I've toyed around trying to learn French for many years and recent retirement gave me the chance to pursue an intensive course which has done wonders for my confidence in speaking the language.
I did lots of research to find the 'right' school for me and CLE easily met all my expectations. LA Directrice Isabelle and her excellent team cannot be complimented highly enough on both the quality of the teaching and the supportive and welcoming atmosphere in which students and staff operate. Two other points that impressed me about CLE 1 its 'smaller classes' approach whereby students can integrate closely with teachers and fellow students - no danger of being lost or forgotten in large classes and 2 the wide ranging age mix of students. CLE also made excellent arrangements for me to live with a local family - a lovely experience that added to the overall pleasure of my trip to Tours I cannot recall enjoying school so much and have no hesitation in recommending CLE if you are minded to learn or improve your French.
Nach vier Wochen Sprachschule in Tours kann ich sagen: CLE war die absolut richtige Wahl! Meine Lehrerin bereitete die Stunden professionell vor. Jeder inhaltliche Wunsch von Seiten der Studenten wurde aufgenommen und im Unterricht behandelt. In den Einzelstunden konnte ich einzelne Aspekte z. Auch die Auswahl der Gastfamilie ist professionell. Ssomit habe ich mich mit 57 Jahren entschieden, dieses Manko zu verbessern. CLE ist zweifellos die beste Sprachschule, die ich je besucht habe. Um die wundervolle und engagierte Direktorin Isabelle gruppiert sich ein Team von netten, motivierten und sehr gut vorbereiteten Lehrerinnen.
Die Stimmung in dieser Schule ist einzigartig. Ich hatte eine geniale Zeit in CLE! Excellent, personalised and professional language teaching for all levels. Well located in the lovely city of Tours, CLE provides a great base from which to immerse yourself in French language and culture.
Isabelle and each one of her wonderful staff go to great lengths to ensure your experience with them is secure, comfortable, productive and rewarding. It was definitely worth it!!! Isabelle, the owner of the school, welcomed us on the first day and after a fair test, everybody was assigned to the appropriate level. I enjoyed my classes a lot, which was due to a very high professional level of the teachers and their enthusiasm for their language. Beside grammar, reading and listening comprehension I learned a lot about French life and culture and we had very dedicated and enriching discussions in class.
The atmosphere at CLE as well as at my host family was very friendly and respectful. I think that CLE carefully chooses its host families. Thus, I definitely felt very comfortable with my host and I highly appreciated to be her guest. All in all I highly recommend CLE and the inspiring atmosphere let me rediscover the French language!
I first found out about CLE a couple of months ago when I was searching online for an intensive language course in France. The good reviews made me curious and finally decide to choose for CLE. I spent the last 2 weeks in Tours, and only wish I could have stayed longer. I learned plenty of new grammar and the teacher was both passionate and highly professional. Also the workshops were really fun to attend and mainly practical. As for the school, it is a small institute.
The owner of the school, Isabelle, knows everyone by name so do all the teachers by the way which makes it a warm and friendly environment. Classes are small and consisted of people from a variety of nationalities and different ages. Although I think 2 weeks is a little short to really make large improvements, especially in a more advanced stage, I still feel that these two weeks have brought me a lot. This immediately sparked my interest because if a school has stayed open for over 30 years, there is a reason. And CLE is no exception. I am not someone who learns languages easily and somehow over the course of the 3 months I attended classes, I managed to become conversational.
I had an absolutely wonderful experience living and studying in little city of Tours. The professors are amazing and the combination of lecture, activities, and private classes was the perfect way for me to learn a difficult language. While in Tours, I lived with a host family a little bit outside of the main town and I still keep in touch with them today. And not only that, but the people you meet at CLE will be your friends for a lifetime. So, if you want to learn French from amazing people in a remarkable place and make lifelong friends along the way, then CLE is the school for you.
Et j'ai choisi CLE pour plusieurs raisons. Le plus important est Isabelle, le directeur. CLE war die beste Wahl. Ich denke, das ist mir mit Hilfe von CLE gelungen. Und nicht zu vergessen: Sans doute - je reviendrais! I spent three weeks at CLE and really wished I could have been there longer! The classes were very useful for expanding my vocabulary and all the students were very motivated. It's clear that Isabelle organizes the excursions in part because she truly enjoys getting to know the students. I had a great time getting to know Isabelle and the professors both inside and outside of a classroom setting.
The family I was put with was perfect and all of the other students at CLE agreed that Isabelle had a special knack for matching up students with host families. My famille d'accueil went out of their way by making sure I got to try all the regional specialties and never cooking the same thing twice. Tours is a fantastic place to learn french. Business owners in the city quickly learn your faces and like that you're here to learn French so treat you so warmly. With a host family, it's easy to get immersed into your local community and i took part in a number of community events.
The home stay really helped me pick up everyday expressions and vocabulary as I was constantly asked for my opinion on the European Union. I experienced some serious withdrawal after I left and would go back in a heartbeat! I'm currently trying to take time off work to make my way back to this lovely school and city. Thanks for the great experience! I attended in order to give structure to the French I already know, as well as to improve my command of the language in written and spoken forms.
I found the environment to be incredibly warm, welcoming, and supportive. The approach is an immersive one, and the very effective approach of Isabelle Aubert and her top-class faculty causes you to be surrounded by the French language at all times: I was struck most by the high levels of pedagogical competence of the teachers, their sensitivity, and their intelligence is divining the best ways to get each student to learn in the most efficient manner possible.
The location of the school in the centre of old Tours, and in this exceedingly beautiful region of France just add to the appeal. I spent 2 weeks at CLE and had a great time. The classes 3 hours a day were very well taught and covered a wide range of grammar, vocab and general conversation. Isabelle, who runs the school, is fantastic - very friendly and welcoming.
Chatting to her really improved my French. I also stayed with a friendly host family. Going biking and canoeing with them and Isabelle was great fun. Talking French at mealtimes was also really useful. A great experience-the teaching top-notch, classes small and meticulously covering the treacherous but so interesting ground that is the French language. The teachers great, warm, the text book paced along all areas of France, modern and old-culture, social issues, cinema, politics, history-all this with lots of grammar, vocabulary and oral practice.
The host family was friendly, accomodating, central-the city beautiful with lots of surrounding interests. This is a no-nonsense course that takes you very fast and in a concrete manner to the next level-whatever that is-it is also amazing for preparing for exams-I would definitely repeat the experience and would recommend it wholeheartedly. I really improved my French and had a great time doing it. The teachers were all excellent, and the classes were interesting.
I was especially impressed by the genuine interest the teachers showed in each student, even outside the classroom. Isabelle, the owner of the school, makes an effort to know each student. One Sunday I took a nice bike ride with Isabelle and another student to Amboise, a small city near Tours.
The conversations I had with my host family after class and during dinners were invaluable in improving my French. My host family were lovely, fed me well, and made me feel very welcome during my stay. Le mie 4 settimane a Tours sono volate,grazie soprattutto all'accoglienza ricevuta al Cle. Le classi sono sempre composte da piccoli gruppi il che aiuta molto l'apprendimento e consente di praticare al massimo la lingua, parlando e interagendo durante la lezione.
I spent 2 weeks there in January and loved every minute. My French improved significantly in such a short period. The quality of the teaching was first rate. The morning lessons were in a class of 7, and this allowed the teacher to help each of us as required. We had been grouped together based on the test taken upon arrival, which meant all the students were about the same level. This ensured the lessons were well suited to our ability level.
The afternoon workshops Tue and Thu provided a fascinating into French culture, from cinema and literature to politics and education.
Frequently bought together
This was really useful for me, as I will be moving to Paris in the summer. The one-to-one sessions Mon and Wed were a great way to reinforce the morning lessons, and I really benefited from the individual tuition. I learnt so much French — and about the French and France — from the breakfast and dinner table. My hosts were great company and it was a home from home. Tours is a great place, and has something for everyone. I started with French when I was 14 while I was at high school. I am currently a 20 year old law student and have been learning French for the past 6 years for my own pleasure.
I stayed in Tours for an overall 6 weeks from December to January This exchange was an absolutely amazing! It teaches you to love the language, the people, the culture, the history of this beautiful country. The school provides you with opportunities to learn to love France, to discover the culture and the beauty hidden in the tourist sites and the language.

It is very easy to grow in one's ability to speak French at this amazing school. The school gives you an opportunity to grow in a comfortable environment with teachers who have both the passion and much needed energy to teach French. I have never experienced such patience and passion from teachers.
I attended a total of 60 hours of class and I have made immense progress. It was a magnificent experience. Living, eating and breathing French in the heart of the Loire valley was a fantastic experience! Isabelle and her staff listened to what I wanted and provided a bespoke service. The small classes and individual tutorials meant that I could progress at my own pace, in a pressure free environment. Impressively, the school also helped me prepare for my life in France.
I learned about French food and wine, how to open a bank account, rent a flat and talk about a game of rugby. I was also lucky enough to live with a French family - M. In fact, I enjoyed it so much that I am coming back to Tours for more! CLE is echt een aanbeveling waard. De school van directrice Isabelle is professioneel met daarbij een warme sfeer.
Het is niet zo'n hele grote school en dat heeft zeker zijn voordelen. Ik ga zeker nog een keer terug. Eu fiz 2 semanas de aula em dezembro No primeiro dia de aula, Isabelle nos apresentou a escola e nos levou pra fazer um passeio pela cidade velha nas proximidades da escola. Eu fiquei numa turma que estava terminando o A1, portanto quase A2. Nos demais dias da semana ficava na biblioteca estudando. Toda segunda-feira tem prova sobre o assunto da semana anterior.
Estou muito feliz com a escolha que fiz e com o meu progresso. Dit is gelukt en de week bij CLE in Tours is omgevlogen waarbij ik van elke minuut heb genoten. CLE zelf barst van stijl en enthousiasme. De directrice zelf verwelkomt je op de eerste maandag bij de deur, neemt je en alle andere nieuwe studenten mee op een toeristische rondwandeling door de oude binnenstad. In mijn geval, omdat er zo weinig nieuwe studenten waren, beoordeelt zij je niveau van taalbeheersing tijdens die wandeling. Geen zenuwslopende testafname, gewoon een ontspannen gesprek over waar je vandaan komt en wat je interesses zijn.
In het nazien bleek iedereen door haar op het juiste niveau te zijn geplaatst. In de klas heb je les van uiterst competente en gemotiveerde leraressen. Zij kennen je situatie en je wensen en proberen daar continue op in te spelen in hun lesaanbod bij de keuze van artikelen en zelfs in rollenspelen. De lessen hadden een heel prettig georganiseerde afwisseling van theorie en praktijk: Ik realiseerde me eigenlijk pas hoezeer ik in slechts een week vorderingen gemaakt had toen ik bij het overstappen in de Parijse metro merkte dat ik de gesprekken om me heen, die tot die tijd vooral uit flarden bestonden, kon volgen alsof ik in de metro van Rotterdam zat.
We had previously spent 7 weeks at another large french intesnive school in the south of France which was very good. CLE was also equally professional. However CLE also offered the customised service of a smaller environment students in total. All of the teachers were very experienced and very adaptable to our specific needs.
The school strived for excellence, a diligent learning environment mixed with the right balance of fun. Isabell and the team do a great job of looking after us and I would highly recomend the school. Our teachers were Chrystel, Marlene, anne sophie and emmanuel and they were all excellent. I recently attended CLE for 2 weeks in November and had a thoroughly enjoyable and productive stay in Tours.
I had looked long and hard on the internet to choose a French language school and choose CLE largely on its high rating on this site. I was relieved to find out I had made the correct choice. In truth 2 weeks is a short time but being an intermediate level learner I gained what I most needed and craved i. This was achieved due to a number of things: I should also point out that I am a something professional and not easily impressed. I can assure you this is not the case at CLE and all the students took the lessons as seriously as I did, and we enjoyed chatting in French together at all times.
Finally I must also say that the owner of the business, Isabelle Aubert, is great. She is approachable and happy to help with any problem with a smile - a rare quality indeed in the world, and especially important when you are alone in a foreign country with communication skills not quite there yet.
Die Lehrer sind sehr engagiert und motivieren die Studenten mit immer wieder verschiedenen Lehrmethoden und Themen. Wenn es die Zeit erlaubt, werde ich nochmals nach Tours fahren und einen weiteren Kurs machen. Ich habe sehr viel gelernt und kann die Schule und die Gegend absolut empfehlen! I give my highest recommendation to CLE!
There are many places to learn French. It's scary to have to make a selection from across the Atlantic just based on online research. I am delighted with my choice. Director Isabelle is committed to her students. It's amazing to me that each week she has new students who must be integrated into the existing classes and it works! The teachers are interested and helpful. Tours is a beautiful city and located in a wonderful area, easy to rent a car I recommend the Hertz location on Rue Marcel Tribut and great sites to see and wine to taste.
Specific recommendations - take the option to live with a French family arranged by CLE. Everyone who did had great hosts and great stories to tell. But do realize that this is a school! There will be homework. It will not be easy. But you are doing this to improve your French. Speak French as much as possible! And one recommendation before you come - listen to French as much as you can. And the final word of advice - be prepared for a revolving door of emtions: Apparently, that is normal.
You will have improved! And I was very glad that I did! It's a fantastic school, situated in the very heart of the town centre and has a very warm and welcoming feel. The teachers are outstanding, in both their commitment to helping you improve and their organisational skills. I was placed in a class which was perfectly suited to my level and found that I learnt a lot. The time passed so quickly and I would have loved to have stayed longer. I had had a dream since childhood to learn French and I was keeping that dream alive.
Fast forward to the end of the decade It was the time, finally, to go and learn French. Lived with a super family whom I still keep in touch with along with friends and the staff at CLE! I went back three times--the teachers are amazingly gifted, the programs and individual attention to individual student's needs, superb and the extra cultural classes offered are enlightening. I've since received my credentials to teach French, have 20 students in two after-school classes and am currently writing a book and creating videos to help adults and children learn the French basics.
Je me suis senti accueilli tout de suite, et les enseignants sont extraordinaires. Les classes sont petites et personnelle. This School is an excellent choice if you want to become overall better with the French Language. The teachers are well versed in teaching French as well and keeping it interesting and fun. Everyone at this school wants you to feel welcomed. I am a very shy person but I felt right at home here. The classes are small and you get a lot of individualized help. There are activities you can besides just sitting in class.
You are placed in a group of your similar skill so you wont feel embarrassed by people who speak a lot better than you do. They encourage you to be better and it makes a huge difference. I plan to return in the future and wouldn't dream of going anyplace else. Thank you to everyone at CLE, you really changed my life.
Having not studied French since A-level over 24 yrs ago , I found the tuition, ambience and whole experience of studying at CLE to be first class. For some it might be a little daunting to fully 'immerse' yourself in language trg by living with a host family and not speaking a word of your native tongue for a whole month, but it produces results quickly and is a fantastic way of really making progress. Enormous credit must go to the skill of the teachers and the interesting and varied topics that are used to convey the lessons, but equally, the enduring patience and help from your host family is invaluable.
For the first few days I found it a real challenge and very tiring, but having been tested on the first day, I was placed in a small class with students of a similar standard. We progressed together and helped each other; there was a real camaraderie and sense of mutual empathy for each other's efforts. It was fun too — we learnt the language whilst deepening our understanding of French life, culture and of course La cuisine!
What was of particular value to me and I think is a real selling point for CLE is that the tuition focused on how the French language is really used and constructed both verbally and in the written form. If you are thinking of studying in France, be brave and fully immerse yourself at CLE - you will not regret it I spent 6 weeks at CLE recently. I found the teachers to be very professional, supportive and cheerful. Class size was small, of between people, and learning was kept very interactive at a pace that suited our level.
The school attracted friendly students interested in the culture of Tours and the surrounding area there is lots to see. We also mainly spoke French outside of the school, which was great for practicing what we learnt and more advanced students teaching less advanced students inadvertently. Workshops that ran 2 afternoons per week, were specifically selected on topics of interest to the students or areas we needed to practice.
This included cooking classes and learning about various festivals in France. I highly recommend this school to anyone wanting to improve their study of French language and culture. Mir hat sehr gefallen, dass es kleine Klassen waren. Die Lehrer sind einfach super! Die Ateliers am Nachmittag haben eine gute Abwechslung zum morgentlichen Unterricht gegeben.
The standard of education is of a very high quality, and the pace and level or activities equally matches students' needs. It helps that Tours is in one of the most beautiful and historic regions of France, where the local population are freindly and welcoming. As someone who already works in France, CLE fulfilled my continuation training needs and the opportunity to conduct one-to-one tutoring was highly beneficial.
I will certainly be back in to continue my French language progression. The general atmosphere at the school was friendly and welcoming. All the teachers were fantastic. We found them to be very motivated and they helped us feel comfortable and confident in the classroom, always encouraging us to speak up and practice our vocab!
I learnt more than i ever expected to in such a short time. My partner was especially pleased with how generous the teachers were with their time. He would often complete additional writing exercises and the teachers would happily complete the corrections and explain them to him. The school itself was very comfortable and well located, right in the heart of town near. I was very impressed with the multimedia lab and the smart board which gave the school a really modern feel and allowed the teachers to be more dynamic with their lessons.
We would often use the internet to play games, do listening exercises or look up unfamiliar terms that came up during conversation.
This really helped keep the classes moving and made it alot more interesting for us. The afternoon classes deserve a special mention for the diversity of topics that were offered and how well they complemented the lessons Best of all were the students themselves - they were friendly and fun while at the same time very focused and motivated to learn. We had a fantastic experience and would recommend this school to anyone who is serious about learning French and prefers a more structured and intelligent learning environment. The teachers are intelligent, and they come to class prepared and are pleasant to work with.
I liked the fact that many students were over I liked the fact that there was a mix of students of all age groups and nationalities, but with an emphasis on Americans and Europeans. All of the older students, and most of the younger ones too, were serious and eager to learn and were conscientious about their homework. CLE placed me in a nice home with a fantastic cook who helped me find my way around Tours and who spoke French with me every night at supper. Finally, the atmosphere of CLE was friendly and relaxed, and yet the teachers absolutely strove to pack as much French into the heads of the students as the students could bear, plus a little.
I spent a month in that academy and It was such a great experience! The academy is really nice and it has a really good and great teachers who make wonderful classes. I really enjoy all the classes and it has a good class environment. If I have the opportunity to go back there, I will do without a doubt. Thank you for everything. I chose to study at CLE this summer because of the positive reviews I found on-line and becasue I read that the average age of the students was a little older.
I was not disappointed! There was a very nice blend of students, both in age and in country of origin. In particluar, I appreciated: The teachers were excellent: Patient, good-humored, and they corrected sufficiently without making one feel discouraged. The small class size maximized opportunities for speaking and oral comprehension. The morning classes which emphasized fundamentals were nicely complemented by the afternoon ateliers.
