French lessons in Montauban

I didn't expect to be teaching French again so soon, however the opportunity came up last month. We give English lessosn to a Spanish man who lives in the next town, Albias. he asked me if I'd teach French to his younger brother who'd be visiting him for a month. Why not?

It's interesting for me, learning about the school system in Spain and also brushing up my skills teaching French up to about A-level. Fortunately the student has just spent a month in the UK, including 2 weeks studying English in Oxford, so we can ue English if necessary. My Spanish is not up to explaining grammar! The online dictionaries come in very handy too.

I found this game for grammar revision:

Here you can test your level of French:

When not learning French with me (3 hours a day) my student likes climbing rocks or practising at indoor climbing places. There's one right here in Montauban, near the railway station:

Next week we'll do another 12 hours of French so I am off to find some lesson materials!
