I had a wonderful time re-learning Italian with Claudia. She was the perfect teacher for me - patient, understanding of my various issues post stroke, technically excellent and great fun. Gave me great confidence to try and hold my own in conversation next time I’m in Italy. Thank you!
Response from the owner: Thank you, Victoria for your lovely review. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your lessons with Claudia.
Nazaret surpassed all our expectations. Not only is she a dedicated teacher who really cares for her students but she also has the ability to enthuse her students. Thanks to Nazaret our daughter is totally enamored by the language and culture of Spain and the Hispanic world. Thank you Nazaret and thank you Marlborough School of Languages.
Response from the owner: Thank you, Colin,for your lovely review. We are happy that Nazaret has been able to help and inspire your daughter, and we are very grateful for your family’s trust in MSoL over the last few years.
Response from the owner: Thank you Svitlana for your generous rating. I hope that you are enjoying your English lessons with Jane. 🙂
Ignacio (Nacho) provided outstanding tuition, very professional but most of all very friendly and understanding. I learnt a lot about tenses, which I hope to put into practice.
Response from the owner: Thank you, Doug for your lovely review.We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed your Spanish sessions with our Nacho!
My daughter attended a Japanese workshop here on Saturday. She had a fabulous time and thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon. Apparently it was awesome. We are hoping more will follow. Thank you Maria.
OK, so it's taken me ages to get round to writing this review AND I've written reams, BUT I'll make it worth your time to read :).This is a fantastic place to learn a language - I have been going to lessons with Sophie for French for a few years now and I can say that my facility with the language has come on leaps and bounds. As an older student with some prior experience I was never after a standard lesson learning grammar etc (although should you want this then Sophie can absolutely do this). I was after learning French idioms and learning how to speak in a more natural way. Sophie was able to adapt to this request easily and we have such a great time with me trying to talk on any number of subjects in a much more conversational style - and making some truly exceptional gaffes to boot. Sophie has provided many links to interesting topics, photocopies of French magazines and papers, and even sending me occasional idiomatic phrases by text as they occur to her.Short of actually living in the country, I cannot think of a better way to learn a language. I don't think I'll ever pass for French :), but I do feel far more confident in both listening and speaking since attending lessons. And I feel I continue to learn all the time. Can't recommend the school, and Sophie in particular, enough. If you truly want to learn, call them. You will not regret it. I can keep up with some of the French series, films and radio without being completely lost now :).As a final note I should also add that Sophie has managed to keep the lessons going over Zoom for the duration of the lockdowns, and although I do prefer actually being there in person, Sophie is very skilled at making you feel right at home on Zoom. She uses the online tools well, using them to enhance the lessons with whiteboards and slide sharing etc. To anyone who does worry about this style of teaching, I would urge you to give it a go - Sophie is a whizz at putting you at your ease. You will have a really good time and come out of each lesson with a real sense of accomplishment.
Response from the owner: Merci beaucoup Simon!
I highly recommend Marlborough School of Languages. My son really enjoys learning French with Sophie, the lessons have increased his confidence and Sophie’s fun and engaging teaching style is very effective.Thank you!
Response from the owner: Merci beaucoup Alison et Max!
I have been having French lessons with Madame Sophie for over a year now, from the start of my GCSEs. We studied grammar in-depth , which helped me to gain an interesting understanding of the roots of the language, and allowed me to improve my all-round French greatly. We always communicate in French which helps with my pronunciation and listening skills, and prepares me speak abroad with confidence. I would highly recommend Sophie's course to anyone wanting to improve their French, whether at school level or as an adult, she is a delightful teacher and I always look forward to her lessons. Merci beaucoup, Madame 🙂 -Henrietta, year 11 GCSE student.
Response from the owner: Avec grand plaisir et merci à toi! 😀
Thank you for providing confidence for my daughter with her French studies, it has helped to develop her language skills and she has thoroughly enjoyed learning with Sophie. Wishing you every success with your language school in the future.
Response from the owner: Merci Victoria & Verity
Really enjoyed my Spanish classes with Maria both in person and via zoom. She immediately puts you at ease and creates a comfortable and fun way to learn Spanish whilst tailoring the classes to your goals. I'd highly recommend!
Response from the owner: Thank you Ellie for your kind words. I really enjoy teaching your small group and seeing your improvement week by week. Maria
A brilliant and fun place to learn.
The French tutor, Sophie, is an outstanding teacher, full of infectious passion and joy for her subject. Sophie's lessons are one of the highlights of my 16 year old daughter's week and she will go on to study French A'level. As a highly intelligent and cultured native French speaker one is receiving the very best!
Nazaret, is an amazing Spanish tutor. She brings life to my lessons and makes learning Spanish exciting and explains it slowly and in detail which is very helpful. Before I had her, I started to dislike Spanish and it wasn't a nice experience. But ever since my first lesson with her I love it again. Thank you Naz!
Response from the owner: Thank you Lotte for your review. We are very happy that you enjoy your lessons with Nazaret.
Fantastic teaching at this wonderful school of languages. My son has been having French lessons with Sophie and it has transformed his love of the language and has improved his proficiency no end. He absolutely loves the lessons, even now they are on Skype, and is so looking forward to going back to having face to face lessons in September. Sophie makes the learning fun and engaging & really knows how to harness a teenager’s natural curiosity and love of learning while covering & embedding all aspects of the modern foreign language curriculum. I highly recommend this school.

My daughter has been taught Spanish by Maria, Nazaret and Ana this past year. She has loved all her lessons with all 3 teachers and has come on in leaps and bounds. I would highly recommend anyone to use Marlborough School of Languages.
Response from the owner: Gracias Chiruca for your five stars rating!
I have loved learning Spanish with Maria. I don't know how she gets it to stay in my head!
Response from the owner: Hola Michelle! Thank you so much for your positive review.
Sophie is a great teacher. She has a really positive and supportive approach which is fun.I have been learning French with her for a while now and my French grades have improved and I look forward to our lessons!!
Response from the owner: Thank you 🙏
Excellent! My daughter loves Maria and always looks forward to her Spanish lessons.
Response from the owner: Thank you Olga. Your daughter is adorable, a joy to teach!
Top quality Spanish teaching from Maria and Naz. The classes are fun too. Highly recommend to anyone wishing to start or improve a new language.
Response from the owner: Thank you Helen, your recommendation is much appreciated.
Marlborough School of Languages have really helped my daughter to feel more confident whilst speaking Spanish, as well as supporting me as I study for a degree in languages. The language events that they organise are fun and a great way to meet like-minded people, highly recommended!
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for your feedback. We are so glad to be able to help 🙂
Both teachers are kind and helpful. I had the pleasure to share some lessons with Maria, helping students with their pronounciation in Spanish lessons (as I am Spanish). Students are also willing to learn and welcoming. I just went for some weeks and I loved the experience. See you again someday!
Response from the owner: Gracias M Carmen.
Response from the owner: Thank you for your 5 stars rating 🙏

Response from the owner: Thank you, Lau for your lovely review. You children are a joy to teach 🙂
Not the first to suffer because of non-existant account. The work you do is amazing. Top quality.
Response from the owner: Thank you, Alice for your review. Your words are much appreciated!
Having no experience of speaking Spanish, Maria made it easy to learn and made ways to make it fun also. Would 100% recommend.
Sophie's wonderfully positive, enthusiastic and thorough teaching has boosted my daughter’s confidence in all aspects of her French work and improved her grades at school.
Merci beaucoup!
Madame Sophie is an excellent tutor and makes learning French fun for 7-11 year old. Highly recommend 👌
I’ve worked in school for over 20 years now, we had many language teachers come and go to teach the children. Then Sophie came, what a difference she has made, she is enthusiastic and made all the lessons fun, the children would ask , ‘when do we have french? When will Madame Sophie be back? They were very keen to colour pictures and label in french in their free time! I hadn’t seen this before, the children just loved her and french ... biggest disappointment was, she wasn’t around when my children were learning! I would recommend this learning school 100%, just watch your children blossom and enjoy the fun way Sophie teaches. You will see it yourself anyway, you just need to take the first step and give it a go as she’s amazing! 🇫🇷
Maria is great! My daughter loves learning Spanish. We will definitely be continuing with Maria.
I had the pleasure to have seen Sophie and Maria both in action at St Mary's and St John's and they are both great with people and kids, patient, fun and persistant. The only down side to this Spanish academy is that now I'll have to be very careful of what I said when I am in town, because surely lots of students will understand now!
Working in Education for the last 20 years I have seen Sophie teach many lessons to children. She is a natural kind, caring, fun teacher and totally inspires the children to learn. She makes every lesson challenging and really gets the children involved.
I would highly recommend Sophie to teach any child an additional language.
