What do the students say?
08/10/2008 - Eirini, Manchester -
"Casually Learning French with structured
lessons around a coffee in a pub and phone calls at random times during the
week": I found this course very appealing and efficient! I went through a
series of customized lessons with Veronique where we met in a quiet place .
These lessons gave me more confidence in progressing with the language
learning and met with my priorities of the moment.

Neil & Dianne, Sale - We are a couple and here we
are, we decided to spend some time this year in France. We also took the
resolution to learn and/ or improve our French. One of us does not know any and
the other has some rusty remembrance from school. Veronique came to our place on
a weekly or bi-weekly basis and tailored the lessons to our needs. We are now
ready to go and enjoy good food and wine and confident we will say more than
"Bonjour" in France!

Helene & Ann,
South Manchester -
We are two friends willing to improve our
conversational French and were hoping to find a course suitable for both of us
only! We found it with Veronique’s flexibility and enthusiasm to teach! She
adapted the course for us two as she is able to provide as much attention to one
than the other and she is sending us comprehensive notes from the lessons, phone calls and
regular exercises. Veronique selects actual topics that we relate to and can
reuse for conversations.. She gives us regular phone calls between the lessons
to practice listening and remote language communication skills. Keep it up!

Magali, Sale - I am a pensioner and I
am keen to take on the challenge to study for and pass my GCSE in
French. I talked to Veronique and decided to take regular lessons. Veronique
turned my regular reading and study into powerful learning method where I
gained time to grasp much quicker the grammar and some lists of vocabulary.
She is boosting my confidence in speaking and analysing more difficult texts
towards the exam preparation!.

Richard, Manchester - I have always liked
France and the French language and wanted to refresh my knowledge from
University and build on it to develop it to the next level. Namely competent
conversational and business French. I am glad I can leverage Veronique’s
great teaching skills to assist me! Veronique uses a combination of
techniques including face to face teaching, interesting and relevant
exercises, video watching and regular telephone calls to enable me to
practice and use the recently learned concepts

Tony, Partington -
"Bonjour, I am Tony. As I wanted to learn French from scratch to use it for
my work in France I called for Veronique’s services as French teacher.
Veronique is giving me face to face lessons and is completing the lessons by
phone calls and exercises on an adhoc basis. She shows flexibility while
adapting the pace and content of the lessons to my learning style. This
combined method allowed me to make a good amount of progress without even
realising it!"

Rachel,
Fallowfield - I am a student in Manchester University (MMU) I had a punctual need
of refreshing and improving fast my French knowledge so that I could be
confident with passing the French exam. This exam was crucial in the final
global mark and I had to overcome some weaknesses in grammar and had to brush up
on various lexicon themes. I asked Veronique to help me. After 4 intensive
lessons and phone calls + regular exercise to practice specific points I gained
tremendous confidence in using the grammar and vocabulary for the exam. I am now
sharing the good news with you and Veronique that I passed my French exams: I
had a good mark for both the essay and written exam!

Barry, Sale - Bonjour, I was just looking for
a native French-speaking teacher in the Manchester area to improve my
conversational level. Fortunately I found Véronique with whom I am
effectively keeping up to speed. My vocabulary and fluency have
increased and I have also consolidated my previous knowledge. This is
done in a practical way through a conversational course and, outside of the
course, with some arranged practice exercises ."
13/09/2006 -
Charlene, Stretford - As a professional looking
to move to France I have been calling on Véronique's
teaching methods to improve my conversational level and be ready for the move!
Veronique boosted my French speaking confidence to prepare my new life in the
country of "art de vivre"!
