French Reviews

Sophie runs a fun and informative class and makes sure everyone has the opportunity to contribute . I have no criticism of the format but would be delighted if a beginners ‘ conversation class could be run alongside this one - would be a great addition . Most conversation classes are aimed at fluent speakers and I think there is an opportunity to serve those who are more hesitant but wish to practice their new language skills .

I've really loved my lessons with Sophie. She is receptive to my learning preferences and needs, and takes a very proactive interest in my progress. She's a joy to learn with!

We have really enjoyed our lessons with Sophie. She is so flexible and always happy to teach us ‘real’ French. We are both feeling more confident now and will hopefully be able to practice some of what we have learned this Summer in France. Everyone at the Centre is so friendly and helpful. The flexibility of being able to change things when life gets in the way of French lessons is particularly helpful and much appreciated.

I am not computer literate so struggle with zoom and retrieving the online work materials

Jean-Michel has been a fantastic French teacher ! Both my written and spoken French improved immensely as a result of my lessons with him. Despite being online lessons were always engaging and thoroughly enjoyable. Many thanks Jean-Michel !

Very enjoyable

J’étais déçue les leçons me manque mais c’est la vie Wilma

We have nothing but positive words for Zsofia and the way she teaches our children. The material is very varied and she manages to keep them engaged throughout the session. The children see it as fun…while learning a great deal. Merci Zsofia.

During my initial meeting with Maxime, he obviously assessed my level and ability and I told him about my weaknesses, namely coping with the various tenses and, in particular, having the confidence to use them correctly in conversation. I feel that Maxime has completely understood what I need to get out of these lessons and I feel that, week by week, the lessons have been tailor-made for me. I have thoroughly enjoyed the lessons so far and am looking forward to continuing with them.

I have made great progress in French with Vanessa. Not only do I feel better informed about the French language and culture. Most importantly I now feel able to speak confidently, which was my goal. I will miss the classes, which were always fun. Many thanks Vanessa.
