Emma T. (year 3, French)
“My daughter, Isabella, who is 7, has been learning French with Magalie for a few months now and absolutely LOVES her 1-1 lessons. Every week, Magalie prepares a completely individually tailored lesson for her that both challenges and holds her interest. After every lesson, Isabella proudly shows me the work she has done and complains that her lesson was over too quickly! She remembers all her new vocabulary and grammar easily because Magalie teaches in such a fun and interesting way and this has boosted her confidence in her school French lessons as well. As a linguist myself, I know how important confidence is when learning a language! Both Isabella and I would recommend Magalie’s classes to anyone looking to start or improve their French language skills.”
Advanced Level Group
Anne: “I have been having private French lessons with Magalie for two years now and more recently in a small group. I would have no hesitation in recommending her as her commitment to quality lessons is excellent. She always puts in a lot of effort preparing her lessons to suit the student which are varied and well thought out. She is a friendly and approachable tutor committed to providing the best lessons she can to suit each pupil.”
Alice: “Magalie’s group lessons have really helped me maintain and improve my level of French. The lessons are very structured and varied, covering relevant and interesting topics. Feedback is always given for any work completed and every effort is made to answer any questions concerning the language. It’s something I look forward to every week!”
Emma B. (French, university level), Horsham

“My daughter has had a couple of lessons of Algebra. Magalie was very very patient and always willing to help and answer questions after the hour we had paid for was finished and always went the extra mile. My daughter has without a doubt benefitted in just a couple of lessons and we will be back! “

Sonya S. (beginner lever), Horsham
“Magalie is a positive and upbeat personality with a passion for teaching. The French lessons I’ve had are fun, engaging and personalised to my level and ability. Each session provides core topics in an interesting way including common phrases, great vocabulary and the opportunity to practice grammar and pronunciation. Magalie is encouraging, reassuring and helps you build your confidence with learning the French language. I’ve enjoyed each lesson and feel my French is improving over time.”
Luke T. (conversational French), Horsham
“Excellent tuition, the pace and level is designed to suit your ability/requirements. Magalie puts an amazing amount of effort and enthusiasm into each and every session. I am very pleased that I found Magalie and I feel that my French conversation is now progressing very well indeed.”
Steve H. (Maths, Year 3)
“Magalie has been tutoring my 7 year old for a couple of months now in Maths and there has definitely been an improvement. My daughter was immediately at ease with Magalie and I would highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a maths tutor for their child.”
Bidhan B. (beginner level), Horsham
“I have really enjoyed my French lessons with Magalie and I would strongly recommend her to anybody who wants to improve or starts learning French. Her French lessons are customized according to the needs of an individual. It really helps to learn French from a native French speaker particularly if you want to be familiar with the native French accent and pronunciation.”
Stephen M. (advanced level), Horsham
“I wanted to start learning French again, after many, many years. I thought this might be difficult but Magalie’s skill as a tutor has made the transition both easy and pleasurable.”
Sammy J. (A level), Horsham
“Dear Magalie, Thank you very much for helping me with my French over the last few weeks. Before we started our lessons, my confidence in French was very low but now I feel like I can go back to university with a spring in my step!! :)”
Tim & Libby (5) J., Horsham
“Magalie’s lessons are all individually tailored and the amount of thought and work which she puts into each and every one lesson is very impressive. She has a relaxed style which enhances the learning and boosts confidence. Nothing is too much trouble for her and it cannot be underestimated the value you gain from learning French from a French person.
In a nutshell, I am so pleased we picked Magalie to help us learn”
Deborah B. (conversational French), Horsham
“Magalie is such fun and a natural teacher.
I’m so relaxed in her company that I feel I am absorbing the language rather than consciously being taught, which suits me very well. Magalie will tailor the session to a subject area of my choosing which is so very helpful to my needs currently. I’m surely gaining in confidence and I’m looking forward to my next visit to France. Thank you Magalie. “
Raquel Z. (from Spain) (conversational), Horsham
“I am Spanish and it took me a lot of effort to learn English with boring grammar books and not much success for years. When I decided to learn French I wanted to learn the language in a different way more focus in conversation because my boyfriend is French. The first time I had to go to France I was terrified to speak in French. After a month with Magalie, my boyfriend and his family were impressed with my language skills and I could feel quite comfortable in a different language.”
Steve N. (beginner/intermediate), Horsham
“Magalie produces her lesson plans according to your ability and the speed at which you wish to learn. I have found the environment, lesson pace and Magalie’s ability to contextualise things to be both relaxing and helpful. Magalie also follows up on other questions by email when she promises to.”
Celia S. (conversational French), Horsham
“Magalie makes every lesson fun and at the same helps me pick up conversational french. So if you want to study on that basis, I’d certainly recommend Magalie.”
Tom D., (A level), Goring-by-sea
“It helps to learn French from a French person, the surroundings are very relaxed. I enjoyed learning from Magalie and have now got my University place. “Tutor: very friendly, interesting knowledgeable person; atmosphere of the lesson: relaxed, hard working; I recommend Magalie.”
Daniela U. (from Germany), Horsham, (University level)
“I decided to study French for my course at the university. I felt that the lessons were tailored to my need. Magalie was friendly and I liked that she did not speak too fast when talking in French. “
