What Our Students Say

Fantastic new premises!


Cam Parsonson 2017 Student



A fantastic and fun environment to learn French. These guys offer so many fabulous ways to immerse oneself in the language from yoga to dance to drama and naturally traditional evening and day classes. Their little library has a wealth of literary treasures and they also have a splendid dvd collection. There is also many opportunities to try French cuisine and wines and their croissant morning breakfasts every month bring a charming group of Francophiles together. A great place to give kids a head start in language acquisition too with very lovely and caring teaching staff who are passionate about what they do. Proud partners of the French Film Festival too :)
