“My fifteen year old son and I had a great lesson with Delphine this evening. She was kind enough to accommodate our last minute request. Delphine is a wonderful teacher: she has great rapport and was highly attuned to our (different) levels. She took us through formal and informal exercises in French and English, then we made purchases at the oldest boulangerie! Highly recommended.”

“I had a fantastic time learning French from Delphine. She was thorough and knowledgeable. It was fantastic to be able to learn French in real life settings. I met Delphine the first day I landed in Paris, and was so relieved to have someone show me how to order a coffee at a café.
Merci Delphine!”

“I have loved the French language and culture from the very first day I began studying French at my second- level school in Galway, Ireland over 35 years ago!! To this day, my heart still skips a beat when I hear French being spoken. It was this love of this amazing language that propelled me, 25 years ago, to leave my permanent job and live in Paris for a year. However, despite French classes in school that were rigorous in terms of grammar and vocabulary, I still felt that there was a huge disconnect between my level of read and spoken French.
I am therefore, hugely grateful to Delphine, for opening a door for me into an exciting French experience through her bespoke, carefully structured and fun French classes. I recently spent one week in Paris and I met Delphine every day for one hour, in different cafes, each as beautiful and as interesting as the one before! During our conversations, Delphine kept both a written and audio record of our lessons: she provided precision guidance in relation to the core areas that I needed to work on, through additional phonetic exercises, vocabulary, etc. Each evening, she sent me the written and audio records of our day’s lesson for me to listen to and to note down interesting expressions, idioms etc. She also sent personalised phonetic exercises designed to facilitate my learning needs. This for me, was the secret, the magic, that accelerated my learning to a very high degree. In listening back to our conversations each evening, it sharpened my ear for both vocabulary and for that all important accent! I was able to have conversations with people in shops, restaurants etc completely in French as my accent and my ear for listening had improved so much in a very short time. This was bespoke education at its very best!
I loved meeting Delphine in all the different cafes throughout Paris as it afforded me an opportunity to become familiar with many different parts of this magnificent city. As a teacher, Delphine combines a superb mix of a very high level of professionalism and an extremely warm, wise and encouraging personality.
Vive La France, vive Delphine!”
