“I highly recommend Devy’s French lessons because her lessons are structured and paced to meet the level of your understanding. I had studied French before in school, but never went beyond the beginner’s level. I was quite nervous to join the group at first since I had not brushed up on my French since my University days. However, her lessons were well constructed and allowed me to learn the practical French that I had been wanting to learn – without the unnecessary pressure of tests and exams! After a year of lessons with Devy, I have progressed my understanding of the French language. I feel I can continue to learn French at this pace comfortably. If anyone is interested in starting French, please do not hesitate.”

“Friendly and knowledgeable, Devy has helped me grasp the basics of French and take me to an intermediate level! My goal was to learn so I could communicate better with my in-laws and it has worked, they always compliment me on my progress… I recommend her classes to everyone who is daunted about learning a new language. Her classes are always fun and very interesting.“

“PwC were looking for innovative and creative team building ideas. French Speak came highly recommended, and with good reason: Devy is a wonderful tutor, the lessons are fun and rewarding, and we are thoroughly enjoying learning this beautiful language together.”

“Devy provided excellent examples to practice with around real situations you would need when travelling. It was fun and Devy provided a great way to learn.“

FrenchSpeak provided me with a solid footing in French language learning. In FrenchSpeak, I found a comfortable, accepting and flexible learning environment that provided learning sessions conducive to different learning styles. This helped me pick up grammar and conversation quickly and in a fun manner. Now, I use it to converse with my French speaking friends and it has opened up doors for me in my career direction and progression.

I highly recommend Devy and her team at French Speak. Devy is extremely patient and a very positive and enthusiastic teacher. She always puts in the extra effort to help us get speaking experience, ideas to help us keep up our practice and constant commitment on social media platforms to ensure there are different ways to engage her students. You will not regret learning with Devy and French Speak. Thanks again for your patience Devy!!

The meetup sessions are convivial and facilitated with a “light touch” by Devy. I am gradually filling in the gaps in my French vocab, and confidence.

This event was very fun and helpful. The smaller group is great for more individual feedback and it’s a nice size for group exercises.

Good opportunity for speaking and listening in small groups

“After struggling through my first semester of French at University I knew some urgent action was required. While searching for a private tutor, I was lucky enough to stumble upon an absolute gem – Devy! My French improved enormously and I went from barely passing the subject to getting high distinctions. Finally, grammar was explained in a logical way which made perfect sense to me! But it was my change in attitude that made the biggest difference. I suddenly found learning French fun and interesting (rather than terrifying).

I always looked forward to meeting weekly with Devy and became much more confident as a result. I would highly recommend French Speak to anyone looking to learn quality French in a supportive environment.”

“Devy is a great tutor – she made her lessons fun and enjoyable, and ensured we were pushing ourselves in our learning. And she was always prepared and prompt for our lessons. I look forward to studying further with her.”

“Devy is incredibly friendly and helpful. She’s happy for you to call up during the week to assist with pronunciation etc. She is flexible and provides ability to skype into lessons if you’re away.”

“Devy is a great teacher. She is patient, explains things in an easy to understand manner, and provides great real-world examples.”

The classes are very well structured and Devy is so very kind. She enjoys her work and is professional. Her infectious passion for speaking French is taught in a way that makes you want to learn more. She helps you along the way and is very engaging. I love how you work with other learners and practice your French. Devy is patient and engages you with a lot of lessons to improve your French.

Devy helped me build my confidence before heading off to France for our wedding celebration with French friends and family. Our special project was to translate our vows into French so I could share them with everyone and build on basic ‘familiar’ conversation (not too formal).
Thanks again Devy – many of the guests complimented that I spoke way better than the last time I was in France!

It was a lot of fun, I was able to talk to people from many different countries.

Devy, speaks clearly and slowly for beginners like me, to follow. But challenging enough to start thinking.

Devy is an incredible instructor!!
