French Immersion Day 2

The Thomas Ahrens International Work/ Study Program has taken place for many years and on rare occasions do City Tech students and Evry students get to meet. What a pleasure to meet them!

City Tech Students and Evry Students

We had a lovely breakfast and then all the students mingled. Our students found out interesting places to eat and things to see while in Paris and so did the students from Evry. They were very friendly and willing to help.

What a great second day. First, meeting and speaking to the students from France and then continuing with the French Immersion class. We hope you all learned a lot since it was a every informative day. I look forward to see you all on Saturday.

 

Au revoir,

Michelle

Overall, it was a great day and everyone was open to trying the rabbit pate, honestly I think everyone liked it. Everyone was excited and we all did a little bit of shopping at the markets. We learned a lot and the weather definitely helped today.
