Nacel Education Travel

About us

The origins of Nacel date to 1957, when two language teachers from France began organizing Summer Programs in England for French teenagers. Their goal was to provide opportunities for students to extend language learning and knowledge of another culture through a well-organized and affordable summer program. During the sixties these programs grew steadily and spread to Ireland. In 1969, the organizers decided to ask some American teachers of French to arrange a Summer homestay program in the United States for French teenagers . Over succeeding years, programs with Germany, Spain, Mexico and Canada were added.
