Lovely idea but if i wanted to learn English it would be much better to visit an english speaking country! I visited France, ages ago, and learned french. Sadly I �ve forgotten most of it. Why? Because nobody speaks French in Oz. So learn English in an English speaking country. Come to Oz for a holiday and stay a lifetime :-) Cheers and see ya downunder. P.s New Zealand is just across the Tasman, and although much smaller and colder, also worth a visit! |

@ Peter - I �m also offering French lessons which will probably get off quicker here in France, but as most of my career has been teaching English, I thought it might be good to add that too. So many French business people don �t have time to go to England or the USA and just need a quick intensive course. The Tourist Office here is backing me up and helping with marketing the two possibilities, so fingers crossed. Have a look at my website and see what you think! http://maison.broustiquet.monsite-orange.fr/ @Mariethe - Unfortunately you won �t get an English breakfast here, my husband is French and as I �ve been here since 1981, I �m afraid I am rather French too, but I could manage some tea and maybe homemade scones when you come by, OK ?! Janet - a very busy retired teacher !!! |

Oh please, don �t make me cry. All those memories of du pain au chocolat and the lovely french women, oh lala. Not to forget that french is a far more musical language than english. You see, there are the tears of happy memories again ;-) Still, life is what happens when we �re busy making other plans (a John Lennon quote) so i ended up down under. Anyone visiting is welcome, but remember, the place is bigger than Europe! A trip from Sydney to Perth is similar as a trip from Paris to Moscow!!!

@ Isabel - I hope not - I �m British! By the way, loved the film, sounds like my poor husband when he tries to speak English !!! @Peter - might come down one day if I earn enough money in my "business" !! If I do I �ll bring some pains au chocolat et des croissants !!!

LoL Isabel - it would have been easier to teach "I would like to buy a Big Mac". Hilarious movie.
and Peter - what about Cadbury �s chocolate and the lovely Ozzie ladies??? Is it ooh la la too?
Yep, Sydney to Perth is 4000kms via a huge desert - at least 36 hours of actual driving time (so, 4+ days) , 3 days by train and between 3.5 and 5 hours by plane depending on wind factor
Mariethe - you are welcome in the land downunder
Janet - great videos and great idea. Good luck.
Cheers
