The lessons are really good; everything is starting to fall into place. He got a B in his French. Thank you very much for all your efforts teaching him French, without which the story would have been quite different.
My lessons with Jane have been an enormous help to my French as now I understand the grammar and the verbs much better and feel more confident in using them. I now enjoy French and so am going to continue to take it at AS level after getting an excellent result at GSCE level, A*. She has good structure to the lessons and knows the areas I need to focus on to improve my marks.
We are absolutely delighted to be able to let you know she received an A considering her mock was a C before your excellent tuition. This grade reflects your skill, abilities and input as a teacher, we would both like to say how pleased and grateful we are for your support and marvellous work.
I have been attending Jane’s French conversation classes for the past few years. In particular, during the last two years, a small group has met at Jane’s house to discuss a huge variety of topics.
Jane’s lessons are always very well prepared, and although the emphasis in these classes is conversation, she always ensures that we are well grounded in grammar.
I feel that I have learned a great deal of contemporary French during this time and have improved my conversational skills enormously.
Thank you so much for teaching me French over the past two years. I have learnt a lot and hope to carry on learning!
I studied French with Jane for two years and I can recommend her unreservedly. She has a friendly approach and the lessons were always interesting. I particularly enjoyed our discussions concerning politics, economics, history and the people and country of France; these were much more fun than the dry and dusty classes that I remember from my schooldays! My aim was to gain enough fluency to have reasonable conversations when I visited the country, and I was pleased to be able to communicate effectively when on my travels. Jane has high standards which will stand you in good stead – and give the support and encouragement you need to achieve your ambitions.
I have been having French lessons with Jane for around 6 months now and it has been great! I am moving to France shortly and wanted to brush up my high school French, and develop sufficient skills to help me get by in day-to-day life.
Jane has been a very good teacher – very friendly with well-structured lessons. She has supplemented textbook learning with plenty of listening and speaking, to make sure there is good variety in each lesson. She has also provided me with a strong grounding in grammar and writing, which will stand me in good stead for the future. I still have a lot to learn, but I feel much more confident in embarking on my French adventure now!
