Successful Malvern
Language School
celebrates second birthday
A
Malvern language school is celebrating its
second birthday with the launch of new
language courses for 2020.
January is a time of year when we often try to think
of ways to improve our lives. Giving yourself a focus,
exercising your brain, meeting people and having
fun are all things which can give you a lift in many
ways, and something you can get from learning a
new language - if it is taught the right way.
Language for Fun Malvern was founded by Dee
Vincent-Lloyd in 2017 with one main objective: to
promote and encourage the learning of foreign
languages by adults across Malvern, Ledbury and
surrounding areas.
The school currently has 80 students from the age of
20 right up to the age of 89 and will launch 18
language courses in January 2020.
Dee largely credits her success to the methodology
devised by company founder, Jessica Bonnard. "It's
all about having fun while you learn - people learn
more when they're relaxed and enjoying themselves.
And we practice real, relevant conversations in every
class in a stress-free way."
Dee said: "Enjoying the learning process is just as
important for continued motivation as the results of
the learning.
Many of our learners have previously dropped out of
other language classes, but with us they have
remained motivated and come back for more, term
after term.’’
The courses are delivered to small groups and
Language for Fun also offers one-to-one or two-to-
one tuition for those who prefer a more intensive
programme, and on-site courses are available for
businesses and employees.
48
Languages include Spanish, Italian and French;
students range from adults looking to learn or
improve on conversational skills or anyone looking
to learn some basics ready for their next holiday!
“There are so many reasons our students are looking
to learn a new language, from family living abroad
to those who have a holiday home and want to be
able to communicate better with local people, skills
required for work, or even those who just want to
challenge themselves to something new,” added Dee
“As someone who learned a new language as an
adult, I understand that the prospect can be
daunting, but we have such fun at Language for Fun
as we learn and students are always surprised at
how much they know after just a few lessons.’
I have met so many wonderful people over the past
two years and I’m really excited about all of the
courses starting in January.”
Here’s what a few of our students have to say about
us:
‘’I absolutely love my Spanish lessons with Dee. She is a
fantastic teacher, very knowledgeable. I feel the
structure of the sessions works well, involving everybody
working with each other, which aids resonance and
comfort in the group. Its all very supportive. I love Dee’s
relaxed approach.’’
‘’I've amazed myself with how much I've progressed in
a relatively short time. It probably helps that the
lessons are fun and group sizes small. ‘’
‘’I LOVE Chiara - these lessons are amazing and she is
so patient and easy to follow... ‘’
