Student Testimonials
Anne Gallien prepared my son to sit a French scholarship exam to a very academic school. The first thing about Anne is that she has a very positive can do attitude to her subject, French and to her pupils. It was apparent to us from the first lesson that we were in capable hands. - Bubbly Tindall
I am an advanced level student.Anne manages to be well-prepared yet spontaneous and every lesson is varied, fun and tailored to my needs and interests. Anne is very friendly, encouraging and has given me confidence in my ability to speak French. I feel I am making excellent progress. As a language teacher myself, I would give her 10/10! - Lesley Watteau
My son needed to cover advanced grammar, composition as well as spoken and listening skills in order to compete for a scholarship. He succeeded because Anne committed to the endeavor 100%, studying the exams he had to sit and devising a programme that would allow him to develop in time for the exam. - Bubbly Tindall
Anne uses a range of materials and methods to improve both the spoken and written language. All this is done in an atmosphere of encouragement and persuasion where studying is made easy. Her sense of fun and enjoyment was infectious. Not once did my son feel that he did not wish to attend and once the lessons had come to an end he missed his extra French lessons! - Bubbly Tindall
Anne is an experienced teacher who enthusiastically involves the child in the study of French without it becoming arduous, the lessons were varied and she very accurately judged the pace which would produce results.I would recommend her to anyone who needs help to prepare for exams or any one who would like to improve their French. - Bubbly Tindall
I have enjoyed the style of teaching and fun motivating environment allowing me to enjoy grammar! I have gained a better understanding of the grammar and am more confident orally whilst speaking and with the grammar.the work was always clear! and explained in many different ways! - Alessia Lombardi, Year13
Thank you so much for your help in elocution, it definitely made a difference and I think maybe I just needed a little nudge in the right direction. just a little change made a real difference. - Sasha Burgoyne, 19
