It is the project of three friends who know how to combine their common professional skills and their imagination in the service of an innovative idea.
Stéphanie Leterrier, teacher in a special institution; Christine Normand, a school teacher, and Isabelle King, a freelance English teacher, have created their company Langue et Culture, which aims to immerse children in English and local culture through courses and fun, but also educational activities.
“We were looking for a complementary activity and one evening last summer, on the terrace of a cafe, the idea came very naturally,” recalls Christine Normand. After many hours of work, the plan takes shape.

“The investment of time to set up our concept was very important”, he continues.
“I started from my experience as a school teacher and from what we knew how to do. We had to choose the traditional sites we wanted to present and imagine how to combine the concepts of English to improve learning. »

From All Saints Holiday 2022, the first courses are offered. Initially, it takes two days to take the pulse.

The program is offered as a two-week holiday in the form of a course for 7-11 year olds and 12-16 year olds.
“Our programs are designed for elementary, middle, and high school students. They provide a unique learning experience, helping children develop a deeper understanding of the English language and their cultural heritage.
Stephanie Leterrier and Christine Normand.
They explain one-week courses that help young people develop their language skills through cultural excursions and games.
“Thanks to many themes such as myths and legends, animals, Roman influence, medieval life, we approach vocabulary and cultural education areas”, continue the two friends.

Language and culture should further develop at the start of the school year in September, organizers hope, with an opening towards the school environment and activities offered on Wednesdays.
“We want to grow our project. Soon, a historian from the Poitiers faculty will join us to further expand the project.”
