For most people the French language evokes images of romantic Paris and the bridges over the Seine, or small villages in the South of France steeped in the scent of lavender, the luminous paintings of the French Impressionists or memories of learning verb conjugations at school!!
The smell of freshly baked baguettes, the visual delight displayed in French patisseries and the flavour of a good French red add to the desire to be able to master this charming language.
French, together with Italian and Spanish, belongs to the Romance or Latin family of languages, so it is relatively easy to learn for speakers of English.
Traits common to these languages are that all nouns are either masculine or feminine, adjectives are usually placed in front of nouns and verbs are conjugated following regular patterns.
Learning a foreign language is a challenge but it also brings a high degree of satisfaction and a sense of achievement once you get over the initial hurdles.
Anna De Peron started Anna’s Languages in 2003 in Coolum Beach, with a small Italian Beginners class of four students. Over the past thirteen years it has expanded into a small, independent language centre which now offers Italian, Spanish, and French, with Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced levels.
Classes are held at the Coolum Community Centre, Peregian Beach Community House and the Noosa Leisure Centre. The classes have small groups with a maximum of 7 students per class. Private and semi- private classes are also offered. Day and evening classes are available.
Since its beginning, Anna’s Languages has been committed to providing a standard of excellence for adult students. Italian, Spanish, French courses are suitable for people who want to travel, for personal interest and self development, or simply for those not so young wanting to keep an active mind and meet like minded people!!!
The focus of the Beginners courses is practical conversation which involves a high level of interactive student participation. Grammar is kept at an absolute minimum. The course covers basic situational dialogue such as giving personal information, ordering food and drink, making reservations and asking directions. Students will be speaking their language of choice from day one!!
Intermediate and Advanced levels, for those students who want to seriously study a language, offer a more involved, structured study with greater Grammar content, vocabulary expansion and scaffolded conversation practice. These courses also have a literary component – contemporary and classical works are studied.
The teachers on the language programmes are all qualified, registered, experienced in adult education and have native or near-native proficiency and above all – love what they do!!
Spoken on five continents and in main international organisations such as the UN, French is particularly relevant for Australia, given its strategic location in surrounding areas like the Pacific and Indian Ocean.
French Language course is offered by Victorian School of Languages. In standards and content, courses are comparable to those offered in day school language classes, and follow a standard course design.
All French courses are designed to develop your competency in reading, writing, speaking and listening. You won't feel shy or intimidated when you'll be visiting a French speaking country or be using your skills in real-life situations, as you will develop your confidence with native speakers...
The focus of this course is to master the basics and it has been devised to offer the maximum exposure to the French language and culture.
