One-to-one General/Business
French Course in Bristol
If you want to be taught French for academic reasons, business needs or gain a working knowledge of the language for general purposes, our tailormade lessons are guaranteed to be the ideal solution.
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. Business courses are great for those whose career will be moving overseas - you would learn the fundamental protocols for engaging in business in French, and later would start to focus more on the integral skills of reading and writing.
It is your first session and your own requirements, however, which decide the precise content of the course. A Business course will generally include common conversational topics, as well as gaining greater fluency with writing letters and emails in French, as well as using the telephone. In the same way, those taking a General course who may need more knowledge of a certain aspect of French need only request it from their teacher.
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 are not simply for those who need to reach a certain level of French for an exam - they are perfect for those wishing to pack up and move abroad, those marrying a French national, as well as those travelling to the country for any other reason.

City information
With over 500,000 residents in the metropolitan area, Bristol is a large city and a real hub of employment and culture in the area. Bristol has its own dialect to a certain extent, informally known as Bristolian by those who use it. The dialect features several differences in pronunciation (over-pronouncing r sounds, for example; and adding an l sound to words ending in certain vowels), as well as a rich assortment of slang words and phrases unique to the region.
Many ethnic communities can be found throughout the city, mainly from the Middle East, Asia, and the subcontinent; making it a perfect location to pick up languages like Chinese, Arabic, Urdu and Punjabi. However, like many cities of its size, Bristol also caters to the immigrant and overseas student populations with a wide availability of English courses.
Language information
Spoken by over 175 million people worldwide, speaking French is invaluable when visiting any country in La Francophonie, the collection of 41 French-speaking nations all over the world. With Language Trainers, you get a native French language tutor with whom you can arrange teaching sessions at a time and place of your choice, either for one-on-one tuition or in groups. What you learn is decided in your introductory session, so that your language needs are fulfilled as opposed to learning irrelevant vocabulary and constructions. All academic materials are supplied by us.
Moving to Scotland with my family was difficult, because I never could understand the accent! Andy comes over to our flat on Saturday afternoons and helps my wife and I a lot. He even helped us with some local slang terms and things to do in the city. We are much more comfortable here now, and continue with our classes.
