I feel well equipped after using these modules and they have really helped with my confidence going into the Leaving Cert.
Ellie

Solenn was an excellent teacher and because she is a native French speaker I had a great opportunity to learn extra phrases and sayings that really boosted my results.

I bought the revision modules for my daughter as she was struggling with certain aspects of the French exam. These modules are a very affordable way to prepare.
