We are Bernard and Dominique, a "duo" of highly experienced qualified native French tutors, having taught in person and online, in Paris and in
the French Southern Alps for many years, and in Devon, UK - in the Exeter area - for ten years.
We are now based in Provence - near the charming town of Aix-en-Provence - where we teach online on the Zoom video-conference platform, and also
host immersive summer courses in France, mainly in Paris and in Aix-en-Provence. The vast majority of our students are from Devon, but French language enthusiasts from all regions of the UK
are welcome!
