Standard and Intensive Programs
At Etoile Institut, we believe that education goes beyond the classroom.

6 lessons (5 hrs) per week of Culture Online – a cultural-immersion program created by our professors with personalized tutoring
Culture Online
A new online format for our cultural-immersion program:
∗ Each week, a new theme is presented allowing students to gain an in-depth and immediately useful understanding of French culture and current events.
∗ More time-management autonomy: courses are published twice a week, so students are free to decide when to follow them.
∗ A graduated program with resources calibrated to students’ levels, with the possibility to review materials several times to better understand them.
∗ Weekly validation of students’ participation with the option of providing feedback and suggestions to enrich upcoming materials.
∗ #FrenchLife: relevant and entertaining information made available to students to help them make the most of their stay (practical administrative information, activities with our partners, cultural resources, etc.).
∗ On a monthly basis and by appointment, each student enrolled in the intensive program (*) receives a 45-minute tutoring session with a teacher. The purpose of these personalized sessions is to measure the student’s progress, to clarify language acquisition and to discuss the student’s academic/professional goals.
(* tutoring sessions are for students enrolled for a minimum of 12 weeks)
