Welcome to Language for Fun Glossop!
Liz, Jo and Lucy offer fun, stress-free lessons in small groups with no exams and no compulsory homework. We offer relaxed but highly structured and effective classes where a large part of the lesson is spent learning to chat to other learners in your chosen language. Our venues are airy and spacious, which allow us to offer safe, comfortable, face-to-face classes.

Our programmes have been created specifically for adults with the emphasis on conversation. There is no pressure and no one is expected to speak in front of the whole class.
Please contact us if you are interested in finding out more.

Our Beginners and Improvers courses are open to new members all year round.

Bonjour!

I am French graduate and have lived in France at various stages of my life - mainly in Paris, Strasbourg and Nancy. I love the language and culture of this beautiful country and visit friends there regularly. I have spent most of my life in the field of communication, starting out as a journalist and public relations specialist, before launching a career in higher education. Seven years ago I changed career path and began teaching French in local primary schools. By chance - at the request of some parents - I opened a small informal adult french class and found the experience extremely rewarding, as well as lot of fun....and the rest is history! I continue to teach children from as young as 5, but I also enjoy the variety of sharing my passion for this lovely language with groups of enthusiastic adults.
Whatever your motivation - holidays, business, moving to France, or just the pure enjoyment of learning a language, Language for Fun classes are designed to meet your needs.

My name's Lucy and I'm a local lass with a passion for languages. From an early age I remember feeling awestruck listening to foreign languages whilst on holiday with family. I was always fascinated by mysterious, incomprehensible words and set out to learn them at the first available opportunity. After my A levels I was lucky enough to gain a place on Manchester University's sought-after undergraduate masters course, where I gained a double masters degree in French and Spanish (with a smattering of Portuguese). Alongside my studies I was lucky enough to live and work in both Paris in the hotel industry and in Spain for Sevilla Football Club.

After leaving my subsequent career in the legal world to have a family, teaching has been a thrilling new venture for me and I have had the honour of teaching a wide variety of people over the past couple of years, from nervous GCSE and A level students to people wanting to take their holidays to the next level. I adore sharing my passion for languages with other people. Adults can often feel nervous at the prospect of starting something new, but students soon realise that it can give them a huge sense of achievement and satisfaction and, most importantly, be marvellous fun.
