AFX Student Exchange

AFX is a Melbourne company that organises student exchanges between Australia and France. It seems that all the French students want to come to Sydney, so they are looking for Sydney families who are interested in hosting student exchanges or may have students who wish to exchange with families in the Parisian region. AFX aims to reduce the distance between our two countries and set up a strong and active link for candidates and their families. We think that fits in very well with our frenchclass philosophy. If you are interested in this exciting opportunity contact frenchclass or Ben Dinning at 0403 222 606 or visit their website www.a-f-x.com

Speaking French in Morocco

If you are heading to this exotic part of the world and want some assistance with your trip we strongly recommend Morocco by Prior Arrangement.

We had a 4 day programme put together by Carol Prior at Morocco by Prior Arrangement. This included wonderful guides to tour the Medina in Marrakech, an amazing cooking class learning the staples of Moroccan cooking and a guided day in the Atlas mountains on mules visiting Berber villages. The sites, colours, food and smells of Marrakech were so beautiful and were bought to life by her thoughtful approach to our trip. As a bonus we got to speak French every day as well. Fantastic.
