4. From the moment concrete facts demonstrating bad will on the part of the young person are reported by several officials, he is sent to the Director and, depending on the seriousness of his deviations or the Director’s perception of the degree motivation of the intern, it is possible that parents will be contacted in order to remind their child of the benefits of their presence in the internship and, de facto, of the clauses of this contract.

5. For the well-being of other young people who are motivated, the parents who give us their trust and the supervisory team, the dismissal of the trainee, who does not accept our principles, will be considered, even applied. We also count on the encouragement of parents towards their child.

6. Furthermore, to facilitate learning their new language, the trainee avoids taking with them any written material that could evoke their mother tongue: dictionary (choose an image dictionary instead), comic strip or T-shirt with long inscriptions in French. The same goes for hearing aids: No music players (CD, cassettes, radio, MP3) or electronic games and other means of communication are permitted.

7. All these rules pursue a single objective: total and complete immersion of the trainee. That said, the trainee will see that we are sufficiently dedicated to his service so that these principles are experienced other than as constraints; he will thus learn that it is possible to flourish and have fun in a foreign language without having to use all these objects.
