Language Show Live 2011

Today, Saturday 22nd October 2011, I joined hundreds of like minded linguists at the Language Show Live 2011 at Olympia National Hall in London.

Language Show Live 2011

The doors opened 10am with a host of seminars, exhibitors and taster sessions thoughout the day. The purpose of the day for me was to learn more about improving my skills both as a French translator and French tutor.

I started by listening to a seminar by Michael Cunningham from the Chartered Institute of Linguists (CIOL) which was very helpful and motivating to develop and improve my translation skills, particularly in to some specialist areas.

There was a large variety of resources for teaching French including new French textbooks and audio materials. I was able to order several new French textbooks for use with new and current students. 

Overall the day was very useful and motivating.

Sat 20 Oct - 10am - 6pm

A new academic year... Many new students learning French!

As we begin another academic year, many are deciding how to improve their skills and education. A great way is to learn a new language such as French!

Over the last few weeks I have had many enquiries about French lessons from people in Kettering, Northamptonshire and towns in the local area of Kettering, such as Corby, Finedon, Wellingborough and other villages. If you would like to learn French or improve the French you already know, then please get in touch with me via my website at www.frenchtranslate.co.uk.

Also, available are online French lessons using Skype of MSN Messenger. This service uses a web cam as well as audio to provide a completely interactive and one to one French lesson. Please visit the Online French Lesson page on my web site.
