Learn French in Manchester

at St George International

The Mighty Reds, Manchester United, the evocative paintings of L S Lowry and their depiction of the city's life, the beloved national institution of Coronation Street and internationally acclaimed popsters like Oasis; these are perhaps some of the likely first things that enter your head when thinking of Manchester, that vibrant proud city in the North West of England with its historically diverse population and strongs sense of community.   

An interesting French influence on the city is that of the French born painter Adolphe Valette, often referred to as the 'Manchester impressionist'. A number of his atmospheric paintings of the city hang in the Manchester Art Gallery. Whilst a critically-acclaimed painter in his own right, he is also famous for being the teacher of that famous son of Manchester, L S Lowry, when Valette was a teacher and Lowry a student at the Manchester College of Art.

When you learn French in Manchester with SGI, you will have plenty of opportunity to get in the mood to practise what you learn as the city now has a good number of French style pattiseries, bistros and restaurants. One such place, the French, a restaurant within the Midland Hotel, has a well-established reputation for its French style cuisine and Gallic atmosphere. So why not get down there and parler du francais?
