About this trip

Lille is France’s 5th biggest city, shaped like a heart which reflects its reputation for friendliness – ideal for language speaking practise.  Its location minimises travelling time and it is easy to get around the city.  It is culturally unique in France, making it a wonderful choice for a memorable French language experience.

On a visit to Lille your language students can immerse themselves in the language whilst enjoying the perfect mixture of French culture & fun, all in a short break to this beautiful city.

Why choose WST for school trips?

WST really understands the nature of taking school groups abroad; communication is clear and timely to allow for planning and no question or query is too small or large. It’s always reassuring working with Leanne, she’s super-organized and leaves nothing to chance.

Lil’Langues Language Lessons

Offering your student the perfect opportunity to live and learn French language

Your students have the ideal opportunity to improve their language skills at Lil’Langues. It is small family size, specialist language school and cultural centre, located in a beautiful, traditional building, its just 20 minutes’ walk from the city centre. 

The class experience is fun, interactive and speaking based, focused on real life culture and language.  Teaching materials are fun and engaging and customised to your individual needs. There are maximum 12 students per teacher giving your students more opportunity to 'have a go'. This smaller group setting not only encourages students to participate, it means students can be sorted into groups to match their knowledge and ability.

Lil’Langues know how important it is that they tailor your experience to suit your needs, so they will contact you before your visit to establish your objectives and gain an understanding and profile of your students. 

Lil’Langues will also be on hand to facilitate some of your cultural visits so that everything is pitched just right for your students' level of learning.
