UK French Tuition Week

Our UK Tuition week aims to provide intensive French tuition over a 5 day period. We have a fun and informal approach to teaching using activities, games and daily quizzes to help you learn.

Here are a few comments from our students:
>> "Francoise' enthusiasm for languages is infectious and inspiring." Diana, Edinburgh
>> "The grammar was explained clearly, our pronunciation corrected patiently and explained in ways which we haven't seen in any books." David, Essex

We have devised this course to cover a different topic each day.
Thus, enabling you to attend for individual days and choose a topic that you would like to improve or that interests you. The complete 5 day course concentrates on areas that, in our experience, students of French have difficulties with. We hope that you will attend the full 5 days to receive the maximum benefit.

Whether you are looking to improve your French or just beginning, this course aims to build your confidence and give you the tools to improve your French. This course is suitable for Beginner to Intermediate Students.
