French
Bonjour!
Whatever your standard of French, we can find a class for you. The Hub currently provides courses for students at Beginner, Pre-intermediate, Intermediate and Advanced (with conversation) levels.
Based on your standard, assessed via phone or face-to-face, you will receive a grounding in French grammar, improve your reading and listening skills and put them into practice with lots of exercises and conversation within the lesson. As the group levels advance, the focus shifts slightly from grammar to conversation.
Cecile, your French tutor, has lived in the UK for 14 years. She is passionate about the French language and culture and her enthusiasm is infectious.
Expect some homework and lots of fun. Each lesson is followed up by an email containing the lesson content and some exercises to complete at home. Cecile is also always happy to have one-to-one follow ups to clarify any points not fully grasped during the lesson.

Italian
Buongiorno a tutti!
Whether it is because of TV’s Montalbano or a general love of Tuscany (and its wine), our Italian classes are very popular.
The Hub offers Italian lessons in small groups at two Beginner levels, complete beginner one and beginner two for those with a bit of simple tourist Italian or more. While learning the building blocks of the language (grammar, greetings and introductions), you will practise reading and listening to Italian and learn to construct simple conversational sentences.
Cecile is French but has studied and obtained a Masters in Italian Culture and Civilization. She has lived and travelled extensively in Italy.
Lessons are designed with an emphasis on fun but follow a planned scheme that progresses through the term. Each lesson is followed up by an email containing the lesson content and some exercises to complete at home.
