One-to-one General/Business
French Course in Bedford
It's no problem if you need to take French lessons specifically for personal use or to help with your career - our trainers mould the lesson plan to your precise needs.
General French courses will cover Survival French, allowing you to be comfortable during short visits to the country; polite conversation, practicable vocabulary and a strong grammatical foundation. A Business course will focus on business protocol in French, and later on reading and writing will become more important.
Our French courses would not be fixed to a specific curriculum, however. You know the specifics of what you will need from your new language, and all you need do is tell your teacher. Perhaps if you are taking a Business course, you may want to focus more on French telephone or email skills, or a specific vocabulary for your line of work. Likewise, a General course can include specific elements that are integral to your needs, for example if you need vocabulary specific to buying property overseas.
Typical Business course students include those in international import/export, those hoping to gain acquisitions in foreign countries, those within multinational corporations, and people who do business with foreign institutions and governments. General courses cater mostly to those who wish to learn French for short trips to (or through) a country where it is widely spoken; as well as those who wish to pass a specific French exam, people who want to buy a home abroad, and people marrying into a French family.

Info about Bedford
Home to the largest proportion of Italian immigrants in Great Britain, in 2001 almost 30% of Bedford's populace were of at least partial Italian descent. For a town of under 100,000 residents, it's a strikingly diverse town both culturally and linguistically. London may be home to the most spoken languages of any city in the world; but in proportion to its population and size, Bedford actually has around 25 times the amount.
What a great place, then, to pick up another language; especially if you're looking to learn Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Punjabi or Chinese - the main constituents of the many immigrant languages spoken throughout Bedford.

Classes can be held privately or in a group, and any relevant course literature will be provided for you.

I am happy to say that the first lesson went well. I greatly enjoyed it. In addition to expressing herself clearly and helpfully Elena is most pleasant to work with. She produced good comprehensive photocopied course material for us to use until the book arrives so no time was wasted. Looking forward to the rest!
