“I am returning to Language in Provence for 2 weeks in April of this year. I hope family finances will allow me to study there yearly. I'm more than satisfied. Each day we had 2 different teachers, 2 different voices, 2 approaches. I'm fairly sure they coordinated so they did not repeat exercises or activities. They are superb teachers, inventive, patient, quick to seize a teachable moment, able to adapt to change of direction or special interest coming from the students. They also speak English, although not often to you, which means they understand what you are trying to say and can help. They are also both proactive in pointing out problem areas for Anglophones. And they are kind. I and the others felt free to take chances.”
Alex Parker, Lymm, England
“I just wanted to drop you a quick line to thank you for a very enjoyable week. Would you please pass on my special thanks to Françoise for her very kind help and support (& patience!) and to Francis for his wonderful hospitality. I thoroughly enjoyed the week (despite the church bells ringing through the night!) - you never know, we might get to organise a group reunion some day!”
Pamela Dee, England
“Just to let you know that we enjoyed the French course enormously, and please pass on our thanks to Francoise, and also send our regards to Francis. We have bought a number of French verb and grammar books, and I have also bought Martin a book on English grammar - until he understands that, I don't think he has much chance of grasping the subtleties of French grammar! Time permitting, we hope to come back for two weeks in the middle of next September.”
Heather Kennedy, Canada
“I'm writing just to say a post-trip"merci beaucoup" for offering me such a wonderful learning experienceduring my week there earlier this summer. I was leafing through somephotos this morning, and came across the shots of the class and the picturesbrought back most happy memories and reminded me of what a pleasant weekI had in your company. My highest compliments as well on the teaching abilities of Bernadette. She was indeed an "enseignante formidable" and the classes with her were instructive and fun at the same time. I do hope the school continues to be a success, and that your students all come away as pleased as I did! If there's ever a need to provide a reference to a potential student, please don't hesitate to offer my contact information - I'd be happy to pass on my positive impressions of the program and the staff.”
Vera, Luxembourg
“This is to say thank you once again for the most wonderful time we had with you at Fontaine de Guby! Johanna and I had a good trip back... Our week in France shines like a golden memory and radiates all the pleasures of Provence and the good times you showed us. With lots of very best wishes from us both and hoping very much there will be an encore at some point.”
Teddy Anson, France
“I had a really excellent time with you all last week, I really didn't want to leave & Valerie & I are so looking forward to coming on future courses next year. I am determined to be disciplined & go through & write up last week's course work, this week. We have already today ordered books 'Key to French Grammar' & 'Living French' & will also get the BBC steps packs of books & CDs. I will also spend time with Louise & Debbie so we can learn/revise together & might also take weekly one hour lessons with a lady in the next village. Thank you so much to Francoise for her excellent teaching, patience, humour & for teaching me those essential words for the French roads!!!”
Rosanne Cancellieri, Boston
“I am writing to let you know that I enjoyed my week at Language in Provence. Thank you very much for your hospitality and for organizing this program. Would you pass along my thanks and best regards to Françoise? Elle est formidable and is an asset to your program. I have sent an email to Francis thanking him in my simple beginners French ( hopefully I didn't make any terrible mistakes). He is an excellent host. If someone asks me for a recommendation for an immersion course in French, I will mention your school. I will be back when I think I am ready for Level 2.”
Chris Oliver, England
“I very much enjoyed my week at you language school. My trip to France was positive on every level and I returned home enthused to make extra effort with the language. I think trips across the Channel are going to become a regular feature! I thank you and your team (especially Francoise for her patience!!) for making my trip/course such an enjoyable experience.”
