REVIEWS

Please find comments from parents below about the classes.

Pupil E. (age 11) says:

Bonjour! I had a really good time in French class, and our teacher was very good with us and always helped us if we were stuck. I learned how to make proper sentences in French, and now will be able to go to the boulangerie and order on my own when I go to visit my cousins in France. I loved singing along to the songs on the CD. Au revoir!

Mum K. says:

As my brother lives in France, and it was a language that I loved in school I decided to enroll Emma in the La Jolie Ronde lessons. I was really happy with Emma´s progress over the year particularly in her lovely pronunciation. She always looked forward to the lesson and got on well with the class. Merci!

Olivier, a French dad says:

Through this course, my children have gained greater confidence in their ability to speak French and are accordingly a lot more willing to express themselves in French.

On submission of an end of term report a mam of two children says:

Hi Sabine,thank you so much for that, I’m delighted they are doing well, they REALLY enjoy it, definitely be there next term. Thanks.

From Nes, a mam from the pre-school class:

Language learning should be fun. Many of the more conventional methods of teaching leave the student as a passive vessel to be filled with vocabulary and grammar rules (yuk!). By contrast, La Jolie Ronde approach, as used by Sabine, encourages our son to be actively involved in the class and this, combined with Sabine's enthusiasm, helps create a warm, fun environment that our son enjoys and looks forward to every Saturday morning. My husband and I are very impressed by this progressive approach and we believe that it has helped our son develop an appetite for learning languages.

Phil, a mam from the Bonjour class says:

Suzanna comes out from class and enthusiastically tells me all the words she has learned with wonderful French pronunciation, much better than how I pronounce my school French!!! I look forward to hearing more from her as she progresses further in the next stage and when we hopefully visit France next year!

Suzanna, a 10 year-old pupil progressing into the advanced class:

The French classes are soo much fun! I have found it a great way to learn French. The games that we play are fun and everybody wants to play them all the time. Sabine Maher is a great teacher indeed.
