Learning English attracts people from Angers and the surroundings, according to the press coverage of december 8th. In Angers the town institute will create new classes on first days of 2011 because inhabitants are eager to learn English or to improve their ability in this language. But the trend is the same around Angers.

In La Meignanne, a charming village circling a little church, a former teacher in English has just launched her own business whose linguisitic ability is the product. Her idea came from wishes expressed by La Meignanne inhabitants to get initiated or boosted in English for their jobs or their holidays. The email adress is expressive of her goal "annie.yougetit@laposte.net".

At the town institute of Angers, some English classes were already free on saturdays. Some were designed for real beginners, others for persons having an experience in English and others for more experienced candidates. But apparently, that was not sufficient. The authority has yet decided this autumn 2010 to open eight new paying classes whose rates range from around 100 € till 300 € a year (while the number of attendees is limited). And apparently, that does'nt lead to a decrease of the demand.
