I applied to this program with barely any prior knowledge of the French language. Although I was extremely worried about whether I could assimilate into my host family's daily life, the staff made sure to help both my hosts and myself feel comfortable. I was also impressed by the simplicity of the application process, which came in handy especially because we applied only a few months before my departure.
This experience helped me find a passion for language learning, and over the year since I returned from my 5-week stay in France I have continued to improve my language skills, in the hope that I'll be able to communicate even more fluently with the many friends I made during my stay. After coming back to my home country I have even won an award for a fully paid scholarship to study in France again for a month! This is all thanks to the staff at Nacel for kick-starting my French journey.

Absolutely could not fault our entire experience with Nacel, from the initial contact and information session, through the entire process - right to the end. Responsive and prompt answers to all my questions. Our daughter had the experience of her lifetime so far staying with her host family, who were just wonderful. She saw and experienced so much French culture, she is now planning to return next year when she finishes school and stay longer and explore more. I recommend Nacel without reservation.
