We are so excited that Chloe from Coffee Time French will be joining us for a special ‘boutique Shopping in French’ afternoon in our store on Saturday the 18th May from 2 pm to 4 pm, it's a great opportunity to find out more about starting to learn French or to come and have a bit of fun practising what you already know! This will be the first event we’re running for our Women Supporting Women campaign, where we hope to showcase local women in business.

Coffee Time French is an alternative way to learn French, Chloe & Marie have been running the classes in local cafes in Southbourne for the past two years; the small, friendly groups meet around a coffee table so you feel totally relaxed and ready to Parlez Vous Francais, the course follows a new theme to help you grow your vocabulary, improve your grammar and your pronunciation.


Having spent 4 years working and studying in Provence, Chloe knows all too well how hard it is to speak a new language and understand the locals, with this in mind the classes reflect real life situations, and put together in a fun way to make learning a joy.  It’s a fantastic way to get out into the community and meet like-minded people, and Chloe’s passion for all things French (especially coffee) will put you at your ease tout de suite!

‘I have been teaching for 12 years and my favourite part of teaching is seeing people grow in confidence and reaching their learning objectives.’  says Chloe.
