"Mandy and Jackson attended the fun languages holiday French programmes and in the words of Jackson, now 16 ... “I still have such great memories of learning so much and having great fun. This made me really enjoy my time in France when we went on a family trip. It gave me such an interest in French which I am now taking at high school “. The holiday programmes were so interactivem, with singing, cooking and games which made the learning FUN. The children really looked forward to going and it gave them

Well done Nathalie!" (Stu Brown - Queenstown) a base for more formal learning in high school." (Michelle, parent, Auckland)

I am quite impressed at how much (my daughter) has picked up.  It is not uncommon for her to pop out with the odd spontaneous 'passe moi le lait s’il te plait' at the table, and she does seem to be developing a bit of vocab.  All seemingly effortlessly. She also enjoys watching the French stories and songs on the website and the CD.  Great! (Auckland parent, NZ)

Thank you, Ella loved her first lesson, I think that is the first time she has come home from school raving about how much she loved something! So thank you.  (Caroline Stone, Parent, NZ)

“Olivia has been constantly asking me to say things to her in Italian, to sing to her in Italian and she loves practising what she has learnt, our lessons have been fun for the both of us!! She squeals with delight when I tell her its Italian day” (Mandy mother of Olivia age 3)

“….. I would really like to take this opportunity to let you know how happy and thrilled we have been with the LCF teaching. We now have French at breakfast lunch and dinner and as a Mum I can’t tell you how happy this makes me.”

"We are very lucky to have an LCF native French speaker in Queenstown, and I notice what a great accent my 7 year old twins have already! They also have a good base vocabulary that has enabled us to start reading simple familiar stories in French at home. I see the teaching they get now as a springboard for a lifelong love of all things French. (Rachel Rose - Queenstown)

"LCF Fun Languages lessons are play-based.  The children enjoy them so much that their foreign language acquisition comes, seemingly, effortlessly.  They have also picked up a lot of cultural understanding from the extremely fun and respectful teachers."  (Lee,  mother of of Erin and Sebastian age 8 and 3)

"My daughter Olivia started learning French with LCF Fun Languages when she was eight years old and it continues to be one of her strongest subjects at the age of 14. I firmly believe that the fun environment, along with emphasis on correct pronunciation, grammar and practical everyday language provided my daughter with a solid base for her secondary study. I studied French for five years and travelled around France for a month and still cannot speak as well as she does.I highly recommend LCF Fun Languages as an excellent start to learning this beautiful language." ( Prue Payne, mother of Olivia, aged 14. Wellington, New Zealand)

"My daughter, Lauren, has attended LCF Fun Languages, French classes for the past 3 years (pre-school and also at primary school). She has thoroughly enjoyed her classes and her French has improved immeasurably. Her vocabulary and conversation is greatly improved. She now shows great confidence in her French classes at school; and last year won a School Commendation for her French! With this confidence she feels competent and consequently loves learning her second language. Her teacher Maroussia, is a talented tutor and a native-speaking French woman with an obvious love of children. I have personally observed the French Classes and find them highly interactive and engaging. The teacher is creative, funny and adaptable. The students are 100% focussed and engaged throughout the classes because the teaching techniques are so effective. The children learn through a wide variety of songs, games, pictures, mini role plays and activity sheets. Some of the games are familiar to the students already (in English) and they love to play them anyway - learning in French just adds to their excitement and sense of fun. LCF Fun Languages provide great learning materials for the students too including a French Learning CD (with songs, rhymes etc. that we often play in the car); and weekly learning activity sheets that the students compile in their individualised scrap books - a great reference for reinforcement. I would have no hesitation in recommending LCF Fun Languages as a professional and effective organisation. Maroussia is an excellent teacher and I would thoroughly recommend her also."
