First of all you have to settle down one question, what apartment rental in Paris will be the most appropriate for you, furnished or non-furnished one. You are to think carefully about these things. If you came to France for a few weeks it will be better to have a furnished apartments, it will relieve your headache about purchasing diverse things and you can freely install yourself in a new place. However, if the endurance is long, even several years, unfurnished accommodation can be much more economical, as you may furnish your apartment relying on your budget, easily from a market of used things, and can trade them off while dwelling Paris to somebody else.
Two ways of home renting subsist in Paris. They are the “do-it-yourself” method and the “agency” method, but choosing the second one you will be to pay some additional funds for rent to the agency facilities. There is no other method to rent Paris apartment.
Of course, the agency method is much easier. The only thing you have to do is to identify the English speaking agency that will have office workers with that minimum English to understand what kind of accommodation you require. Find yellow pages and there find “immobiliers” that is translated from the French language real estate and call in these agencies. You may start with the phrase 'Bonjour, parlez vous anglais?' ('Bojho, parley voo angley') question that stands for 'Good day, do you speak English' and if the reply is affirmative, start talking business. Remember, the payment for Paris short term accommodation can be anything between half of a month's rent to that of a full month.
For the 'do-it-yourself' method, trust me, it can also be as easy as another one. Only here you will be preserving quite a lot of funds. The difficulty what you might have here is to communicate with the landlords. Here, you require a help of someone who is local here, it may be either one of your friends or a person that you have met on the web, for instance. In the situation when you don't have such possibility, the number of the accommodations for you to call on will definitely diminish. But do not despair you will have a lot of possibilities to find an English speaking landlord. And bear in mind that a large number of French lessors prefer to give their accommodations to people who are native English speakers.
Your search would begin with the American church of Paris, a great area to find other English speaking individuals and for other English resources. Take a magazine “FUSAC” that can be seen near the main gate of the church. (It is the best English speaking resource that you can get in Paris). And short term apartment Paris can be also get with the aid of internet pages.
