My high school daughter has been getting tutored here for the last 18 months. The teachers are top notch and she is now nearly fluent in French. If you have are a struggling French student or if you want to improve your fluency, this is the place for you. If there were more stars Id give them.

This is a great place to learn French--no matter what level you are or how fluent you want to become. I studied it as a child but did not continue with French past high school. However, I always found it a beautiful language and, as an adult, wanted to give it another try. I was delighted to find From English to French! The classes are excellent and a lot of fun--enough that I have attended almost every Saturday morning for nearly a year. The program offers evening and daytime classes too, something to fit all schedules, and all levels from beginning to advanced. All the instructors are native French speakers and they bring a love of their language and a real enthusiasm to their teaching. And I’m happy to report that they are all very patient with our struggles to master their lovely language! My French has improved a lot and I look forward to becoming more and more proficient. The program is practical, useful, and the teachers use a variety of methods to keep our interest and introduce us to new ways to learn the language. Some students take classes to simply improve their French before a trip to France, and some aim for fluency, but all of us enjoy our class experience and appreciate our teachers at From English to French. The prices are very reasonable, so why not give it a try? You won’t regret it.

Excellent! I have been attending classes here since Fall of 2016 and have noticed a marked improvement in my French. Sophie the owner has bent over backwards to be helpful to me and my instructor Jean-Baptiste is a true pro. All the teachers are native French speakers and the classes have been challenging and enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this school to anyone looking to improve their French.

An exceptional personalized French learning experience with fun exercises incorporating listening, grammar, reading and conversations every class. I was able to dust off cob webs from old high school French to a confident conversation level within months of joining when I had to use it in France. The semi-private classes are affordable. Ive had the pleasure of learning from Sophie, Cecile, Anne and Sebastian, each one bringing different aspects of French language and culture to life. Lots of laughter and great friendships are shared in this wonderful community.

Ive been taking classes for several years here and I can truly say their teachers are the best in San Diego. I take a private class with Cecile and a small group class with Ann. Both teachers are patient and encouraging. Learning a foreign language isnt easy, but they break it down and explain it until we get it! And our classes are actually a lot of fun. Ive made so much progress, and From English to French has made it all possible.

I heard about From English to French from a local friend who is a mutual fan of the language. After moving into the area, I decided to finally pursue my dream of learning the French language. Admittedly, I was apprehensive that the experience wouldn’t live up to my expectations.Happily, I can report that my expectations were met and surpassed! From English to French is spectacular for basic learning. In the past, I thought I was incredibly dense when it came to learning languages. After just the very first lesson I realized I simply lacked the correct teacher. I came looking to learn French and left with an unexpected boost in self-confidence. As the months passed and my French vocabulary rapidly grew, so did my confidence. Above all else, that is why I can’t praise these affordable lessons enough!

A wonderful place to speak, write, listen, and read en francais. My husband and I have been learning and improving here for several classes each week for about 6 years now. We will never stop! We love this place.

This is a great place to learn French. Cecile is my teacher and I have learned so much from her. I never thought I would progress so fast. It is worth every penny. Good location, plenty of parking.

I am extremely disgusted by the poor customer service from the owner, Sophie Juster, and I would not recommend anyone take french lessons at this school. Obviously she has absolutely no training in customer service and I feel like she has no regard for her customers - only her profit. She left me a terrible voice mail, basically screaming at me and ending with I do not wish to hear from you EVER again... Unfortunately I had to cancel two private lessons ($79 each), last minute, as I was sick one day and had an extremely urgent issue with my wedding venue potentially being cancelled four months prior to my wedding the other day.Both days I emailed her and let her know about the situations. I told her about my situation about just receiving an email regarding a potential cancellation to me and my French fiances booked wedding venue for May (only four months away). Her email back to me basically showed no compassion for our emergency situation, she said bummer, and then she tried to sell me on signing up for group lessons at the end of the email and offered to give me a complimentary lesson (to cover losing todays $79 lesson time) if I signed up for the group session (which I was already planning on signing up but this was the WRONG time to try and sell me on something and show NO compassion for the situation I am in!).In addition, I think the techniques that this school uses is not very efficient. They give you a photocopied handout, play recordings and then you basically just read through the French dialogues together (which are not usually relevant to anything).All in all, I think that it is very inappropriate for a business owner to call and yell at you on the phone, and I dont think that anyone should have to stand for such poor business practices and awful customer service. After receiving my email she did refund me the $79 for the missed lesson, but only because she did not want to EVER hear from me again....
