Embracing the Ultimate Winter Experience: Remote Work, Solo Travel, and French in Morzine and Chamonix

Winter enthusiasts and language learners alike are finding a haven in the picturesque ski resorts of Morzine and Chamonix, where the combination of remote work and immersive French learning creates an unparalleled experience.

The freedom to work remotely means you can wake up to the breathtaking mountain views, sip your morning coffee, attend virtual meetings, and then reward yourself with a thrilling descent down the slopes. Above all, the sense of accomplishment achieved on the slopes perfectly complements the satisfaction of mastering a new language.

Hear a bit more about what we offer from past students…

“I absolutely loved studying here this past winter! I have a full-time in person job in tech but was able to make it work for a few weeks remotely in the intensive class and a few tutoring sessions.

Everyone at the school was super friendly and engaging. Lessons were a fun time mixed with group activities, games, and direct instruction.

I’m not even a big skier but still got to enjoy the beauty of Morzine by hiking on the trails, snowshoeing, and taking in all the nature and chalet-style charm during my free time.

Shortly after my trip I even took the DELF B2 exam and passed! Huge credit to all of my teachers and everyone at Alpine French School! :)” – John Hui (Winter 2023 Student)
