"Language is the roadmap of a culture. It tells you where its people came from and where they are going."- Rita Mae Brown
OUR STORY
At Fluently French we believe that learning another language is an indispensable pursuit in today’s society. It is believed that over 50% of the global population speaks more than one language so learning another language has not only become crucial to professional success it is also indispensable to interpersonal interactions. Here in Australia we have a tendency to call ourselves an English speaking country yet we have over 300 separately identified languages that are spoken in Australian homes. At Fluently French we see this as a sign, an opportunity, a reason to push ourselves further. Languages are everywhere, multiculturalism surrounds us, and we believe that it is time you joined us in learning another language. We are not only fluent in both languages, we also know how to teach them, providing you with the quality of service you need.

We prefer not to introduce additional books (unless we deem this necessary) as this may confuse the learner and creates unnecessary costs to the customer. We often use additional online resources.
