About Richard Bradford

Richard is a Brit who has been learning languages for nearly 55 years, starting with English. He lived in France for 7 years, is an absolute francophile, and seizes any opportunity to pop over the English Channel to visit. This has included annual camping trips to Brittany and many trips to Paris, Marseille, the Côte D’Azur, and the North-East (Nancy and Strasbourg) where he spent most of his time teaching English and running a language school. He studied German to degree level and spent a year over there as part of his program. He’s currently dusting off his 12th grade Spanish, by embarking on a trip this year to Spain for 11 weeks with his wife Claire. This extended stay will include a Spanish course in San Sebastián, booked through ILI, naturally!
