Learn French Naturally in a Paradisiac Environment

Moorea is the sister island of Tahiti, located 30 minutes away by boat from Papeete. It is a volcanic island with a distinctive landscape, surrounded by a lagoon, ideal for engaging in various water sports.

With 18 hours of French class in total (4 hours per day from Monday to Thursday + 2 hours on Friday) you will be able to strengthen your French skills while discovering a paradisiacal island.

• Class groups will be created depending on student's level (beginners accepted)
• Two FLE (French as a Foreign Language) teachers are part of the teaching team, in addition to Isabelle, a professional trainer for over 20 years. Camille, our own head of teaching at Christchurch, will also be part of the trip to teach you!
• The teaching relies on playful and interactive techniques, focused on daily life and Polynesia. French classes take place at Fare Om in the common spaces divided into several rooms.

Accommodation at Fare Om

''Fare Om is much more than just accommodation on the beautiful island of Moorea. It is a small community that welcomes its guests with warmth for unique human and cultural experiences.''

Fare Om is a very large house, a family guesthouse, with multiple accommodation options, located between the two bays of Cook and Opunohu, 16 km from the ferry dock. There is an atmosphere of sharing and good humor to make everyone feel comfortable. The common areas are spacious, airy, surrounded by a green permaculture garden. 5 nights will be spent at Fare Om (from Monday to Friday) .
