Top 5 French-English summer language exchanges

Summer is officially here, and what better way to spend it then by enjoying an experience of a lifetime?

If you want to tick ‘learning French’ off your summer bucket list, a French-English language exchange is for you. Discover our top 5 French-English language exchanges for summer and find the perfect language partner to help hone your skills.

Agatha

As a native French speaker, Agatha could be an ideal match for your language exchange. She’s looking for a two to three week exchange with an individual who’s equally as passionate about travel and language learning. During term time she studies in the USA majoring in international relations and political sciences. Agatha returns to her home country every year but is looking to do something a little different this summer.

During your exchange with Agatha, you’ll live in her family home with her parents, sister (who’s also a seasoned Lingoo member) and a very active dog. It’s located just a stone’s throw away from Paris (10 minutes by train to be exact!) giving you ample opportunity to explore one of the world’s most beautiful cities. Agatha is even willing to turn tour guide, and has already planned an exciting itinerary for her exchange partner.

Vanessa

English language exchange partners based in the United States should consider contacting Vanessa. Both her and her daughter are looking to practice their English and experience a whole different culture. What they offer in return is a great experience close to Paris but not too far from the natural wonders of rural France.

Based in Center Val de Loire, Vanessa’s home is surrounded by greenery. You’ll also get to explore France’s history in the castles of Loire. There’s plenty to keep you entertained in the nearby towns too, both during the day and night.

During the exchange you’ll share their large home and get to know their other, much furrier family member, an adorable grey cat. Vanessa is a lover of baking so you’ll have the chance to taste some delicious home baked goods during your stay too.

Philippe

Philippe and his wife are looking to perfect their English courtesy of a language exchange this summer.

The couple are close to retirement and have built a fantastic home in a small town that adjoins Rouen, a Norman city known for its culture, history and gastronomy. The sea isn’t too far away either, meaning you’ll have plenty of time to soak up those summer rays on a beautiful French beach. A little closer to home you can enjoy nature at its finest. Golf fans will also love the nearby resorts.

Amandine

Amandine is looking to spend this summer searching for new experiences, and an exchange with you could certainly help her achieve that aim. She’s been passionate about travelling for as long as she can remember and wants to become fluent in English with the help of the right partner.

Fitness is another passion of hers – CrossFit is her activity of choice – so if you’re looking for an active language exchange in a countryside location, you’ll want to get in touch.

Laura

You don’t have to restrict yourself to just France when searching for a French-English language exchange. Laura is from Belgium and wants to improve her English just as she has done with her other language skills.

She’s looking for a two-week exchange and can speak French, Spanish and Dutch, allowing you to learn more than one language if you like as well as explore the best of Belgium.
