What matters is satisfaction.
That's what our customers say
about In Franz.
"Care & Creativity"
There are two aspects by which I recognize the work of an outstanding translator: there are no complaints, and the translator shows great care toward the original text. As a researcher, journalist, and PR expert, Fabienne Douls-Eicher brings an additional gift that earns our trust: she is creative and does more than just translate—she considers the text genre. Her passion for beautiful and appropriate language is truly convincing.

"SAP Logistics Translation"
Fabienne Douls-Eicher translated approximately 40 SAP User Guides from our logistics department, originally written in English, into French. The overall positive experience motivated me to commission her to translate a manual for our POS workstations.

"Best Coach & Mentor"
I had the pleasure of working on my high school graduation project with Mme. Fabienne Douls. With utmost dedication, motivation, and commitment, she supported and guided me through every single step of the project, which I ultimately presented at the finals of 'Swiss Youth in Science'. She is the best coach I had for this project, and I am incredibly grateful for her consistently precise advice, insightful suggestions, and essential encouragement!

"Top exam preparation"
I prepared intensively for my oral French exam as part of my Matura (Swiss high school diploma) with Ms. Douls. In just four hours, we discussed my four chosen books together and concluded with a realistic mock exam. It was very helpful and motivating for me to work through all the exam material in such a short time with a dedicated, competent, and experienced teacher.

"French with Parisian flair"
Madame Douls not only made the complexities of the French language accessible to me, significantly improving my language skills – her lessons, with their Parisian flair and delicious crêpes, felt almost like a mini language immersion trip!
A far cry from typical school lessons, improving my French with Madame Douls was a joy. Fun and learning French are rarely combined – but Madame Douls makes it possible!

"Motivating & sustainable"
Madame Douls was my French teacher for six years – from the first year of my extended secondary school education until graduation. Her lessons always had a motivating atmosphere where mistakes were seen as learning opportunities. She placed great emphasis on active speaking – countless discussions and debates about literature, politics, and current events significantly improved my spoken French. And because she taught me French so thoroughly, I still speak fluent French a year after graduation.

Jessica M., Freies Gymnasium Zürich
"Open & lively learning-promoting"
Ms. Douls-Eicher was my French and homeroom teacher at high school for three years. Her classes consciously and encouragingly supported all levels of achievement—each lesson became a lively, open discussion in which we could all learn from one another and were motivated to participate actively and orally.
