Testimonials about our Intensive French Immersion Courses

"The quality of instruction was quite high, with a great deal of attention given to individual needs.

I was able to make significant progress in the areas of greatest importance to me in a short period of time.

I would (and do) recommend Dialogue highly to anyone who is serious about learning French as efficiently as possible."

Your school was better than I imagined.
It rose far above the professionalism that I anticipated.
I particularly appreciated the perfection that you requested.
And of course, the food was superb.

(...) For those with any interest in learning or improving their French, in my experience, Dialogue is THE place to go. It is an ideal setting whether one starts as I did, serious disaster case, or one is a professor of French seeking only to perfect an accent. The greatest risk for any student is that Dialogue can be rather addictive. I've been lucky enough to be there three times and I'm looking forward to the fourth.

"One must be very cautious, of course, about any dealings over the internet with an entity one does not know. But, Dialogue is all they claim to be in their web site and much more. I cannot think of any group or business that I have dealt with in recent years that lived up more fully and totally to the deal they make with each individual student, in terms of instruction, cost and promised facilities and amenities. One can have total confidence that here are folks who really care about what they do, are proud of it, and proud to teach and share the beautiful French language with those fortunate enough to come to their splendidly equipped and located school. In my view, they are at the very top of the apex in instruction methods and personal expertise in language training. My time there has given me a very fond memory to carry a lifetime."

Over the years enterprises which "promise their customers less, yet deliver more" are the successful ones. Exceeding clients' expectations as a routine matter happens only through careful attention to every aspect...down to the smallest detail... of the enterprise. While such business terminology is not often applied to the educational and training process, in the case of Dialogue it most certainly deserves to be.
(...)
In summation, we've arrived home with a very clear understanding of the ongoing steps we must take to insure that we not only keep alive the language skills we've gained, but also to move ahead. We are already planning our return to Dialogue within a year for another rewarding and satisfying experience.

As I am in a hurry, I just write you to let you know that I got the job at the ICRC.

For the interview I had the chance to choose between English and French and I decided to speak FRENCH!!!! For the group discussion etc. we spoke as well in FRENCH.

Thank you very much for your help....

Kind regards

On my return home, I received with interest the most recent "Champs-Elyses" cassette to which I have subscribed for a long time.

A month ago I heard about 50 %. Now, after my stay at DialoguE, I hear almost all.

In only two weeks I made a noticeable improvement in my ability to speak and comprehend French, and significantly improved my self-confidence.

Within weeks of leaving Dialogue I was living in Paris, navigated an interview entirely in French, and had received a job offer.

The instructors were genuinely interested in helping me learn, easily accommodating my particular interests and learning style.

Rest assured that during your stay Jean-Luc and Claudine will be the perfect hosts, providing wonderful conversation and food for those rare times when you're not studying or having a lesson. Be sure to ask Jean-Luc to show you his slides from Burundi!

"I have taken a number of French language courses over the last ten years but always in a group format. My French had reached a particular level but I found it difficult to advance beyond this. I spent a very fruitful five days with the Godards and their excellent teachers at Spa and I reached a new level of confidence with the language. I made some marked improvements during the course and am now confident that I can reach a much higher level with practice."

I wholeheartedly recommend five days at Dialogue. Your efficient & personalised teaching has certainly remotivated me. Additionally, your cassettes make it easy to continue to make progress at home.

Regards to all,

Six months after my first visit to Dialogue and immediately prior to starting my new job in a Parisian law firm, I returned to Dialogue for two weeks. The result is that I felt extremely comfortable and natural speaking in French once I arrived in France. Immediately after my arrival, I received many compliments on my French. Parisians repeatedly expressed surprise that I had never lived for an extended period of time in France. Furthermore, the facility of expression that I gained at Dialogue helped me to adapt quickly to working in an entirely French office and to interact easily on a social level with French people outside of the office. I know that the time that I spent at Dialogue played an important role in my current comfort level in France and the extent to which I am enjoying my stay here.

Dialogue is, without a doubt, the best language school that I have found. The main drawback to studying at Dialogue is that afterward, you will be much less tolerant of the inefficiency of studying elsewhere.

My French improved dramatically: I could see and hear improvement daily, not just over the course of weeks. I made more progress in my week at Dialogue than I did over the course of a year studying at school.

If you really want to learn French (or Spanish, or German, or Flemish), and youre willing to put in the work to do it, I cant imagine a more effective method. And I cant wait to go back.

I'm home now, and very happy with my Dialogue experience, for many reasons. The biggest is that my instructors knew how to identify and address those issues that are particular to a more advanced learner. No wasted time -- my efforts were focused. Time and energy were well spent, and the result was marked progress each day. Another big reason was the food -- the meals were outstanding!

"Pure excellence in language education!
After searching for two years and taking classes at several schools, finally I've discovered one where I can make solid progress in minimal time. It truly boosts your confidence, rapidly increases your level of comprehension and ease of speaking. The environment is perfect for studies - comfortable, non-stressful, and yet very serious. It's a true language immersion - you speak the language which you study from 9 o'clock in the morning till 10 o'clock in the evening, non-stop. The teachers are extremely competent, well versed in the method, and very pleasant. They concentrate on your goals, making sure that you achieve them by the end of your stay.

My expectations were fully met by Dialogue. One to one teaching ensured I was learning exactly what I needed, at a pace tailored to my ability. The setting is inviting and the Godards and their staff made my full immersion week a positive experience. I now have the confidence to approach practical situations in French as well as a good foundation for continued learning.

David Elliott, Director Market Development, Falconbridge International

During the five days that I spent at Dialogue, I felt that I largely recovered the level of French that I had had years before when I was a student. Even more importantly, I acquired a facility of expression that I had never had before, having only taken large group classes when I was in school. The teaching method developed by Claudine and Jean-Luc Godard is extremely effective, and I found that my lessons were tailored to my particular needs and requests. The professors were not only intelligent, highly skilled and motivated, they had such a pleasant teaching style that the classes were very enjoyable. Additionally, I found that much of the learning took place in the relaxed setting of meals and coffee breaks with the Godard family, the professors and the other students.

Before planning my stay at Dialogue, I was somewhat worried that spending a week in language immersion might not be the most relaxing way to take a break from work. Instead, I found that being at the school was very much like being a guest in the home of excellent hosts. I had a private room and shower in a lovely room with views of the countryside. Every day, there were three delicious sit-down meals, with wine flowing freely at dinner. During the afternoon, there was time to go hiking in the Ardennes or to the thermal baths in heart of Spa. At the end of my stay, not only was I extremely pleased with my progress in French, I felt refreshed and relaxed.

Thanks for one of the hardest but one of the most fruitful weeks of my life.. At 54 most people don't attempt to learn a second language, so I arrived with extreme apprehension and left with confidence and motivation. You have given me a solid base on which to build my use of French.

I wanted to write to thank you for the wonderful 2 weeks I spent at your school DialoguE. As a complete beginner to French I was amazed at the progress I made in 2 weeks. Even now - almost 5 months later - the words and phrases I learnt with you are imprinted on my brain. Sadly since finishing my course I haven't used my French very much - as I didn't end up moving to Lausanne. However I have been to Paris since then and managed to get around Paris, order food and ask directions all in French. It was wonderful to me - as the people appreciated my attempts - and it enhanced the experience greatly. I also wanted to say a few words about your hospitality, the lovely accommodation and food - and how comfortable I felt in your home. I really have to compliment Claudine particularly for her attention to detail and for being a terrific hostess. The food was always delicious, the rooms always clean and comfortable - and the garden delightful. Lastly I have to talk about the learning experience at your school. At first I have to admit that as a complete beginner it all seemed a bit overwhelming. I couldn't imagine being able to understand any of the meal-time conversations - but how wrong I was. After only a week - I could comprehend much of what was being said around the dinner table - and not long after was even able to join in. I was very impressed with the methods you used for teaching, and also very impressed with all of the teachers (yourself and Claudine especially). I would like to add one other special thanks to Ingrid - whose good humour and enthusiasm for teaching French was inspiring. She always made the lessons entertaining and fun - and helped bring French to life for me. Now I've started on the many things that impressed me at DialoguE I am finding it hard to finish. I also appreciated that the length of the lessons were never stinted on. I have worked at a Language School myself - and know that at other schools lessons times are strictly adhered to. At DialoguE the lesson ended when both teacher and student were finished a topic - and not simply because the time was up. So I always felt like I was getting more than my moneys worth. Thank you to you both and everyone and DialoguE for making the experience of learning French a great one. I would gladly recommend your school to anyone who wishes to learn French in a hurry.

"I found Dialogue to be very valuable experience. Through the total immersion I gained significant confidence in my speaking ability and the one-on-one courses allowed me to make tremendous progress in the areas I needed to improve. The teachers and teaching methods are outstanding and the hospitality cannot be matched. I hope to continue my studies with Dialogue in the near future."

Carol Lewis, Delta Airlines

"DialoguE are a very good company: very professional, and they take a lot of care all the time to tailor the course to your particular needs. A week there seems expensive if you compare the costs with the costs of individual private lessons which you might take elsewhere, but the huge advantage is that you are completely immersed in French. You aren't going out at lunch or back in the evenings to an English environment. I really found that this helped me become more fluent and more confident."

Steph Baxter, European Commission

Testimonials about our Intensive Spanish Immersion Courses

Based on the former students' comments, I felt confident that the course at Dialogue would be excellent. I had no idea, however, that the experience would be as effective, enjoyable and fulfilling as it ultimately proved to be.
Although I am sure that there are many fine programs throughout Spain and Latin America, I personally can't imagine that a better program than Dialogue's exists anywhere.

I would estimate that in terms of grammar, usage and comprehension, my Spanish skills improved in two weeks more than they would have in one entire year of traditional university level language study.

If advancing your language skills in the quickest way possible is your primary goal, then Dialogue Idiomas is a superb choice.
