About my French Classes
I was born in France and have spent many years living in France. I love discussing everything about French language, culture and attitudes and how they compare to British.
I was awarded a French scholarship at Oxford University, where I also studied Spanish and German, before doing a PGCE in Languages.
I’ve always spoken to my seven year old twins exclusively in French and their spoken French is as good as their English. We are a very French household and my daughters insist on making Galettes des rois long after January.
I’m often asked if it’s too late to learn a language and the answer is never! I run friendly French conversation groups everyday, from intermediate to advanced levels, where at least half of participants are (semi) retired, and that makes for fascinating and animated discussions.
I also have several private French students, either starting from beginner or pre-intermediate or looking to focus more on writing or grammar.
Fun fact: My middle name – also the name of my paternal Grandmother – is Suzette, as in the crêpe!
