French - Intermediate

We have a convivial group with conversation over coffee and I really enjoy the sessions. It’s informal and friendly and makes a difference when I go to France on holiday.

Mathilde makes the French For Fun slogan very fitting – her sessions are all very relaxed and good humoured – a real pleasure.

Weekly French conversation class with Mathilde: always a warm welcomig smile from Mathilde. Chitchat, humour and instruction. She will help you surge past the moments when you can't get that elusive word. All topics OK: Macron to macaroons, gites to gendarmes. A scream from start to finish. Venez avec nous! A bientot!

Mathilde, and the French class, has not only improved my oral and written French, but the relaxed and fun teaching environment has helped me become more confident in general!

Always in a relaxed atmosphere, the classes are light and fun, but you are learning all the time. Small groups are really good and you always get a chance to practice something but without being put on the spot.

I have attended French For Fun classes for over a year, I find the classes informative and detailed whilst not being overly complex. It's a great way to meet and interact with people who want to improve their language skills. Our Teacher is professional and patient and does not over complicate the learning process.

I enjoy the French class because I meet like-minded people and there is always time for a joke as well as more serious learning.

I always look forward with interest and expectation to my French for Fun classes every Wednesday morning with Mathilde. She is a brilliant teacher with a very relaxed approach in the way she interacts with us, who specially like me, does not yet dominate her beautiful language to the full. I also do enjoy the company of the others in our group making it altogether a fun and most enjoyable hour. Wish it was more than that!

Thank you for showing me that learning French can be fun. A great boost to my confidence, I can now ask for directions and order lunch!!

I had been wanting to start French conversation classes for some time, but I was nervous about meeting other people who I was sure would be far better at French than I was. I needn’t have worried! I was warmly welcomed by other class members, and was soon put at ease. The informal classes are informative as well as fun, and the time just flew by. Mathilde is happy to explain the finer points in ways that make the information stick. Can’t wait for my next class!

I have participated in French conversation lessons for the last 4 years. The lessons provide an ideal opportunity for me to practice my French in a supportive environment, which is also fun! The lessons are well structured with an emphasis on different grammatical points. Venez participer aux cours avec nous!

I find the classes very relaxed and welcoming to a beginner.

I have now completed two terms of French and my vocabulary has improved a lot; with the weekly practice helping to keep one focused. I would even enjoy more homework!
