Do NOT use ESF.
If you're happy to travel to Chamonix, Evolution 2 is pretty good.
The ESI schools (separate from ESF) are generally ok in most resorts.
That week is a very busy week though, and you might find that a lot of classes are already full.
Can you drive to the slopes/school each day? Or will you be staying in a particulr resort?

Thank you Fionnuala for your quick response! Yes, I am aware that ths is a last minute planning with a hope that I will find something. I plan to stay in a resort, not driving everyday. I will check the place that you recommended. Do you have any further recommendations for where to stay as well?

If you can go away for the entire week, then I'd reocmmend taking yourself up to Val Thorens, and booking in with Prosneige. Great ski school, in a resort that is one of the few with decent snow at the minute, and a big resort with plenty of slopes, so won't feel as busy as some that week.
Or if they still have space, see if you can get in to the UCPA center in Val Thorens - you can choose between full time or part-time instruction, it's all organised for you, great value for money, and very sociable too.

The same company has places in other resorts, but given the snow at the minute, stick to Val Thorens, Val d'Isere, or Tignes.
