Our Team

The majority of our tutors are fully qualified and experienced native French teachers, who specialise in teaching French as a Foreign Language.

We offer a well-defined learning pathway, a wide variety of courses, a choice of timetables and the possibility of preparing for a diploma, all with the friendly atmosphere and personal attention that stems from learning in a small group.
