Learn French in London?
Absolument! Whether you are a total beginner or an adult
seeking to “brush up” your French, there will be a class within easy reach which will
answer your needs.
You may be
fortunate enough to be able to attend a local class arranged by your local
authority. This is a particularly attractive choice for people who don’t
commute into town. If you work in Central London,
however, you may find it easier to avoid rush hour travel and attend classes in
town after work. This is where the courses offered by French Lessons in London provide the ideal
solution. Unlike so many evening courses, they occupy two hours twice a week. While
this may sound like a hard grind, the classes are structured so as to be fun to
the learner and you will soon see the benefit of the time and money you have
invested. They seem to have anticipated – and overcome – every possible excuse.
If you can’t manage evenings, you can come for weekend courses. If you can’t
get to them, they can arrange for a tutor to attend your home or office to give
classes there.
You will
soon find yourself wanting to venture forth and practise. Not too far away, on
the District Line, lies one distinct possibility to enhance your new, French
speaking social life. The French Institute in Queensberry Place lies at the heart of a
neighbourhood which captures the essence of French life. If you are in search
of French cuisine, French meat, French patisserie, French cheese and even a
French bookshop, you are in the right spot. The Institute itself has a most
beguiling bistrot where you can sit
over a coffee and croissant (or
something more substantial) and contemplate the possibilities before you. These
include, for example, a most tempting wine tasting course where not only can
you taste French wines, but also sample French cheeses. For those keeping an
anxious eye on their figures, the Institute offers food for the mind in the
form of talks, theatrical productions and French films at the ever popular Ciné Lumière. Subscribe to the club La Médiathèque and not only will you
save on these, but you will be able to borrow books, films, CDs, CDroms or
talking books free of charge for up to four weeks. The French have a word for
it: Profitez-en!
