There are also a lot of French people from other areas of the country have moved to Morzine to settle and at the same time enjoy the amazing activities that this part of the world has to offer. A lot of these people enjoy speaking English as well as French which again is the perfect formula for anyone wanting to progress their own language learning.

If you’re here for a short time but want to quickly improve your french then you can sign up to one of our intensive French courses. These require you to give more time each week to your French but you’ll see a quick improvement.
