Club Escargot
Their aim is to introduce children to the fun of learning French as early as possible, as well as discovering France’s culture and numerous customs. The ages range is 6 YEARS to 12 YEARS, but it is flexible.
The classes are 2 HOURS long and cover the basis of the language (parts of the body, colours, numbers, positions, greetings, animals, clothes, transports, weather, etc.) through songs, rhymes, activities, cooking sessions, and traditional dances.
They use qualified and fully trained teachers who have a lot of experience teaching children AND who are all NATIVE FRENCH SPEAKERS. Children can play, learn and are in total immersion in the French Language throughout the sessions. Towards the end of the lesson, the children get to relax with songs, listening to a French story etc.
They encourage the parents to consider these activities as it will actively help their children to develop their communications skills, as well as aid their progress through the primary schools curriculum. During the term, magazines are brought over from France for the children to coincide with special events, such as Christmas, Valentine, Easter, Bastille Day, etc …
Parents, why not use the opportunity to treat yourself to some shopping, or even a quiet cup of tea during those two hours? What better activities can you imagine for your little ones during a Saturday morning?
At the end of term, the children will invite their parents to a French Meal entirely prepared by them.
With the support of Tesco Borehamwood and Elstree & Borehamwood Town Council they are providing fun sessions for the kids and some peace for the mothers. You may even be able to get part of these sessions refunded as part of the tax credits.

Eibhlin Bravard
Eibhlin Bravard is a native English speaker who has spent many years overseas. She has recently settled in London where she teaches English as a second language.
Her personal experience gives her unique skills to understand newly arrived expatriates and their needs to integrate London and finding their way around, whilst taking care of their family at the same time.
Conversation classes are based on digging-up the English you learned as a child, dusting it off a little and using it to communicate. Whether it be using the phone, speaking to the local doctor, or enjoy a cultural experience at the theatre, Eibhlin’s aim is to help you get the full experience. Why settle for coffee and toast when you could have a “full English breakfast”?
She is also available to help adults refine their English, be it in written or spoken form, in order to help them feel more confident in joining the workforce, or even setting up their own business.
Is it your children who need support? Eibhlin will be able to guide them, helping them to bring their English up to class standard, cementing their language skills, and helping them prepare both their personal statement and the IELTS exaam. Before you know it, they will be successfully applying to English universities…
