Founding Story

After a long career in law and consulting, Bernard, along with Véronique and their son Théo, moved from Belgium to Brittany in 2003. They renovated an 18th-century farmhouse and, in 2008, launched a full French immersion program with the DialoguE group to help foreigners master spoken French.

Our mission is to provide an immersive French language learning experience focused on spoken French, enabling our students to communicate fluently with French speakers. We prioritize practical, real-world language skills over textbook learning.
