Introduction

 

The institute, the teachers

Situated on the French Riviera, in the heart of  Nice, the Logos institute offers a very pleasant and luminous work setting with view on a garden where the students can have at their disposal a library, computers and a small cafeteria.

The Superior Institute of Languages Logos was created in 1999 by Béatrice Monini.  Graduated in economics from the University of Nice-Sophia-Antipolis and the European University Institute of Florence, she has taught economics for many years at the University of Nice and at the Edhec, one of the major French business schools.

After many years of experience as a French as foreign language professor, she executes today the functions of a teacher of French and Italian as well as the managing director within the institute Logos.

Being graduates from university, almost all teachers of the Logos institute teach in their mother tongue. Thanks to their specialization and qualification, strictness and dynamics they combine in their classes, seriousness and the pleasure of learning.
