Alliance Française East Anglia - Cambridge

Sylvia K.

I taught French every Saturday morning for a year at the Alliance Française alongside my studies, and I couldn't be more grateful to the directors for this incredibly rewarding experience. The courses were very well-designed, but I still had the space to experiment with it and build a real connection with my students. It was amazing to see how fast they improved their French, and how much fun we had together. My colleagues were friendly, and the school and gardens beautiful. The kids would go out into garden every hour, which drastically improved their focus. Thank you for your trust Virginie and Patricia !

I took a B2 French course once a week for a few months ahead of taking DELF exams. Most of the classes I took were conducted online, while a few were held in person on site, with some students still taking part remotely. In short, this is a superb place to polish your French, with professional and friendly staff who will put you at ease and help you to achieve your goals. The classes are enjoyable, engaging and productive, the teaching is of high quality and the feedback is detailed and helpful. The exam arrangements were also very good. I'm very happy to recommend.

I recommend Alliance Francaise East Anglia very much! My shy daughter enjoys the lessons very much in Cambridge, her teacher is kind and always very helpful. Brilliant sessions, lovely and cheerful atmosphere. AF Cambridge is very generous too: it gives the opportunity to pay the fee in instalments which is of course a big help for lots of families. Thank you!!:)

I live in London and wanted to write my B2 exam before the end of the year; however, many schools in London were already booked up! Luckily, I reached out to Alliance Française in Cambridge and Jasmine and her team were able to find me a spot! Thanks for the great communication, service, and the opportunity to sit the exam at your school -- it was a pleasure!

Exceptional service! The team was incredibly professional, helping me forget all the exam stress with their support and dedication. I highly recommend them!

The facilities are truly 5-star. A special shoutout to Jasmine and Elena for their outstanding professionalism.

Alliance Française is a well-run provider of high quality french language courses suitable for most levels. I spent one year in the C1 examination preparation course and was impressed by the quality of education and support provided. There are cheaper alternatives out there, but for me, having a "real" tutor was essential. My only issue was that there were insufficient numbers of students with my requirements, such that the course is unavailable for the next year. Clearly this isn't an issue with AF Cambridge, hence it doesn't detract from my score which is 5/5. I would just plead with my UK friends to consider learning french and appreciate what can be gained from linguistic fluency (even though I'm not quite there yet) as it enables sampling culture at a far deeper level and really appreciating what doors language skills can open to all, the french included!!

I became a student of AF Cambridge in 2005, in my forties. My rusty school level French was resurrected and I improved so much that after a few years in group classes I passed the DELF B2 level exam (advanced - required for French university entrance) and was able to get a job where I needed to speak French (with an international conservation charity). It has also enabled me to communicate with the family of French-speaking friends. In short, it changed my life, very much for the better!

In an attempt to polish my archaic schoolboy French I have just finished two beginner courses, A1 & A2, with AF Cambridge. It has been great fun and productive! The teachers are warm, friendly and responsive. The course is well structured and reflects contemporary French life, so one is learning language skills and gleaning nuggets of modern French culture. I am particularly enjoying their film recommendations (thank goodness for subtitles!) and my playlist now sports a francophone lilt. The content balance and its delivery was perfect for me. I would add that the optional homework was useful as it was always corrected with careful explanations. Great course, lovely people, and good value.
