Q&A - Questions and answers about Guadeloupe
- I would like to speak better French because I live in Guadeloupe in Saint François. What do you recommend?“We have two partner schools in Guadeloupe and are happy to help you choose a suitable course. You can choose from Center Caribéen de Langues, Sainte-Anne. and IMLC, Le Gosier. Sainte Anne seems to be easier to reach from Saint François, i.e. the Center Caribéen de Langues.
