intensive french in France

My grown up daughter and I fancy a holiday in France which includes a week long intensive language course. We're different levels but would like to study at the same school - probably in Paris, but would consider other cities we could reach easily via Eurostar.

Does anyone have recommendations or experiences to share?

Merci xx

This is a popular here in Aix en Provence.

i often meet people in the summer who are doing this often on their own. Not as easy to get to as Paris but only 3 hours on the TGV.

Forgot to say I went there ( not the intensive classes) when I first arrived here and found them very good.

I studied at L'Atelier 9 in Paris and had a good experience. It was quite a few years ago now but they still seem to be up and running!

Thank you @Humphriescushion
you're right it's a bit further than we'd planned going. But Aix is a tempting place....
How are lucky that you live there!

Check out La Parolerie on Instagram. I follow him for French language tips, and he’s hilarious. He runs a language school in the heart of Montmartre (I discovered his place by chance as I was walking past); at some point I’ll treat myself to one of his advanced refreshers. He offers several courses for all levels.

@Oriunda thank you! I'll check him out.

Have a look at the sites for alliance Française and institut français. Seem to remember hearing they do intensive courses somewhere in the south.
Whatever you do, don't touch Clé in Tours with a bargepole. Don't deliver what they say in the brochure and costs a fortune.

Thanks @newtb that echoes the recommendation (AF) from a friend of mine
