I looked forward to every Thursday evening learning French with Louise in such a lovely, warm and welcoming environment. So much so that I signed up for the next course…and will no doubt sign up for the ones after that. Could not recommend her classes enough!

Sam

Scottish Students

Louise was amazing!!! I was abit skeptical taking up French at first cos… I’m terrible at learning stuff haha… but Louise really put me at ease and was really patient. She was more than happy to schedule our lessons around my work life and the communication was great. Would highly recommend her as a teacher! 🙂

Greek Student

Learning the French language with Louise has been one of the most enjoyable experiences I have had for a long time. Learning a new language can be very challenging but having the right person beside you makes it easier and more enjoyable. Louise is very passionate about what she does and she truly cares about her students, adjusting the content and ways of delivery according to her students’ needs and strengths. She is very kind, collaborative and approachable, happy to help by recommending different sources and materials that make learning meaningful and enjoyable. I definitely recommend this experience to anyone who is interested in learning French.

Andrew

Scottish Student

I can safely say since beginning classes with Bonjour French classes my enjoyment of learning French has increased, I’m more confident and comfortable than I thought I could be without having to move to France.  The feedback Louise provides throughout the session is always the right amount to push you just beyond your current level but not overwhelm you. This has really helped me to consistently develop my French without feeling frustrated or getting down on myself. I would recommend anyone considering classes to try Bonjour. One of the most important considerations to maintaining a consistent practice at anything is being comfortable and keeping it fun! You will find both of those here.

Louise is great and her in person class taught me so much! Louise has a friendly and engaging teaching style that encouraged everyone to step outside of their comfort zone and try speaking from the get go. It was just what I needed and I would highly recommend to anyone.
