wanted to write to thank you for the wonderful 2 weeks I spent at your school
DialoguE. As a complete beginner to French I was amazed at the progress
I made in 2 weeks. Even now - almost 5 months later - the words and phrases
I learnt with you are imprinted on my brain. Sadly since finishing my course
I haven't used my French very much - as I didn't end up moving to Lausanne.
However I have been to Paris since then and managed to get around Paris,
order food and ask directions all in French. It was wonderful to me - as
the people appreciated my attempts - and it enhanced the experience greatly.
I also wanted to say a few words about your hospitality, the lovely accommodation
and food - and how comfortable I felt in your home. I really have to compliment
Claudine particularly for her attention to detail and for being a terrific
hostess. The food was always delicious, the rooms always clean and comfortable
- and the garden delightful. Lastly I have to talk about the learning experience
at your school. At first I have to admit that as a complete beginner it
all seemed a bit overwhelming. I couldn't imagine being able to understand
any of the meal-time conversations - but how wrong I was. After only a week
- I could comprehend much of what was being said around the dinner table
- and not long after was even able to join in. I was very impressed with
the methods you used for teaching, and also very impressed with all of the
teachers (yourself and Claudine especially). I would like to add one other
special thanks to Ingrid - whose good humour and enthusiasm for teaching
French was inspiring. She always made the lessons entertaining and fun -
and helped bring French to life for me. Now I've started on the many things
that impressed me at DialoguE I am finding it hard to finish. I also appreciated
that the length of the lessons were never stinted on. I have worked at a
Language School myself - and know that at other schools lessons times are
strictly adhered to. At DialoguE the lesson ended when both teacher and
student were finished a topic - and not simply because the time was up.
So I always felt like I was getting more than my moneys worth. Thank you
to you both and everyone and DialoguE for making the experience of learning
French a great one. I would gladly recommend your school to anyone who wishes
to learn French in a hurry.
