Local French Language Courses...

[Rose]

Dear forum members... we're moving to the Dordogne in August (between Bergerac and Perigueux) and we are looking for French Lanaguage classes.  I have found a company in Bergerac and also the APCL in Perigueux.   I am wondering if there are likely to be other options... we're looking either one or two lessons a week during the day (school hours) within the area.  Anyone got any ideas?    [:)]

Good luck with the move PPS. 

Hope you have success in finding some good classes when you arrive.  I hope this doesn't sound daft - but I learnt a lot of French in the beginning just watching a couple of daytime soaps (in French) on a regular basis.  The thing is that the storylines are very repetitive, so you pick up key words and verb tenses quite easily.

Thanks Twinkle... I've read a few messages from people who say TV or Radio helps... I'll have to give it a go.  thanks for tip!  I want to do whatever I can to move my french along from tourist level... I think I currently understand a lot more than I can say, so hopefully once we're there it should start to build momentum!  I also feel embarassed when I speak french... which is very stupid!!! I am having lessons but always feel a little shy... unheard of for me!!! [Www]
