Program Overview
This intensive non-credit course is for students who want to learn French in a short period. The emphasis will be on learning French for everyday communication. Students will work on grammar and vocabulary exercises through peer work activities. The class will focus on the four aspects of language: listening, speaking, reading and writing.
Many activities are done in groups to help each student feel at ease to practice their new language skills. This course also includes cultural activities, which allow students to use what they learn in class with locals. At the beginner levels, some topics covered include greetings and introductions, asking for directions, telling time, useful phrases for shopping, eating out, making appointments and so on.
In addition to language skills, students learn simple academic skills. Giving presentations and writing short essays are two such skills. Note: there are no placement tests. Students register for a class based on their current level (beginner/intermediate/advanced).
