French 1 to 1 General

French lessons of this type are broader and are aimed towards students with a variety of requirements.

Those who have benefitted from these French classes have been those investing in or buying property overseas, those married to overseas nationals, people setting off on a round-the-world trip, enthusiasts in French culture, and those enthusiastic to pass a specific exam in French.

French 1 to 1 Business

Those who would benefit the most from these French tutorials are those who feel they need to learn French to help them out in their business lives. For starters, learning salutations and business etiquette is integral; once these have been practiced then reading and writing lessons can start. Typical studiers have been those involved in international import/export, negotiations and acquisitions, those in multinational companies requiring another language, and those working in any way with international governments and relevant administration. Just our simplest lesson for beginners will have students finishing the lessons with basic telephone and e-mail French, as well as survival French should a visit to the country be necessary.

La grotte de Lascaux

Get audio

La grotte de Lascaux, située dans le département du Périgord, est mondialement connue. Elle abrite environ 1 500 fresques peintes il y a plus de 17 000 ans, qui représentent, entre autres, des chevaux, des taureaux, des aurochs, des ours et des cerfs.

La grotte fut découverte en 1940 par quatre étudiants à la recherche de leur chien perdu dans un trou.

Des travaux d’aménagement facilitant l’accès à la grotte s’engagèrent après la Seconde Guerre Mondiale et Lascaux devint rapidement une véritable attraction de foire.

Les premiers signes de dégradation apparurent en 1955, et les recherches démontrèrent que ces dégradations étaient dues à l’exploitation excessive du site. Par conséquent, la grotte fut fermée aux visiteurs dès 1963, pour des raisons de rénovation et de conservation.

En 1983, un fac-similé de la grotte, Lascaux II (située à 200 mètres de la grotte originelle) fut ouvert au public. Deux des galeries y sont reproduites : il s’agit de la « Salle des Taureaux » et du « Diverticule Axial », qui abritent la majorité des peintures de Lascaux.

Cette réplique fidèle a été réalisée avec une grande rigueur scientifique : les mêmes colorants naturels ont été utilisés pour effectuer les peintures sur les parois, la température et le taux d’humidité ont été également conservés.

Aujourd’hui, la grotte de Lascaux acceuille plus de 300 000 visiteurs par an
