Our General French courses features

OBJECTIVES

Our general French course mapped to the CEFR levels addresses the four main skills (reading, writing, listening and speaking) as well as grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, idioms and colloquial language.

We put an emphasis on practical communication by encouraging discussions, debates, conversation activities and critical thinking to give you the confidence to communicate effectively in real-life situations.

With the communicative and direct approach, you will be able to comprehend and use better French as it is spoken in the real word. You will improve your fluency and accuracy in French and be more confident in your everyday life, work or study.

Communication and task-based approach

Each morning constitute a pedagogical unit which correspond to the Common European Framework of References for Languages requirements. This unit is based on a theme, answers several communication goals, and integrates naturally grammar and vocabulary. Each language skill (speaking, listening, writing, reading) is covered, with the greatest emphasis on the development of the oral skill. Communication and interaction are key words of your learning, in which you are totally involved. My attention is for you.
