FRENCH CONVERSATION
- Fortnightly at 12pm in Caffè Nero, Fore Street, Hexham. The next session is Friday 10th July. Buy a drink downstairs and join us on the first floor. Please write to Stephen through the contact page. The discussion group is very informal and is more of a chat. We may cover films, the weather, holidays, and much more. The level of French spoken is varied, with some speaking little, if any, but happy to contribute in English.
- NEW Bonsoir Hexham! For any level of spoken French, come along and join us at 7pm on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of the month in The County Hotel, Priestpopple, Hexham. Next time is 14th July, followed by 28th July, after which there will be a break for summer. Please buy a drink and join us in the residents' lounge. This is a great opportunity for relaxed conversation and chat.
A parent writes "I just wanted to extend our thanks to you for the amazingly positive experience that you gave our daughter. She had a wonderful time and has come back even more enthusiastic about studying French at university. Her hosts and the hosts that she spent her days with were so very kind and generous. Thank you so much for offering the opportunity."
