One-to-one General/Business
French Course in Stoke
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.
While a General French course will provide you with enough linguistic ammunition to allow you to survive a short visit to the country (greetings, basic conversation and a solid 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.
Courses are, however, tailor-made - you cover in your lessons what you need to cover. Most students taking a Business French course will gain telephone and email expertise, as well as general conversation skills. 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 learners who choose our Business courses are import/export professionals, agents for multi-national companies, and those involved with foreign governments and universities. General courses in French suit those hoping to emigrate to foreign shores, people with a view to travel to countries where French is the vernacular tongue, those with a keen interest in French culture and language, and people with foreign spouses.

Info about Stoke
With a population just under 250,000, Stoke-on-Trent is about halfway between Birmingham and Manchester, and was famed historically for the quality of its pottery and ceramics. However, the image of a sleepy town of potters is not Stoke's modern-day image - the city has a lively music scene (the birthplace of Robbie Williams, amongst others) and a vibrant clubbing circuit.
Stoke and the surrounding Potteries Urban Area have a distinct dialect, with numerous words unique to the English language, most famously using the word 'duck' as a greeting. Stoke also has a growing Asian population, making it a great city to study languages from Asia and the subcontinent.

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.
