Testimonials

Thank you Janet from New Zeland fo your testimony !

I waited so long for my visit to Castelnau, and now it’s over: how sad! I can’t find the words to express how much I enjoyed this visit. I knew in advance that it would be something special, but the reality exceeded all my expectations… You welcomed me so warmly into your family and took care of me when I was ill. I really enjoyed all the friendly and informative discussions I had with Anne-Elisabeth, our excursions, all the valuable advice: what a great French teacher! After the excellent meal prepared by Michel on Friday, I had the honor of hearing your daughter sing! What a wonderful end to the visit! All my best wishes. Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you for a wonderful week in Montpellier! It has been a privilege to share time with the family, share meals of local recipes prepared by chef Michel and to share stories of life and culture between us. And what a beautiful region you live in. Plenty of laughs as I negotiated French idioms and new French words! You have a teaching style which is both direct and gently supporting, which I found fun and enjoyable!

Dear Anne-Elisabeth and Michel, Thank you for our first French immersion course. We were looking forward to the experience and it was more than we had hoped for. Thank you for your hospitality, the delicious meals, the interesting excursions, and our friendship. Now we can speak with people with ease, without hesitation. Thank you for correcting our mistakes with kindness and humor.
