Course Outline:

 This course aims to help you actively begin building up confidence to express yourself in French. Using your previously acquired knowledge of the French language which should include the Present tense, the Past tenses (passé composé, imparfait) and the Future tenses (futur proche, futur simple) of verbs, you will interact with the tutor and others in a mixed abilities group, both spontaneously and through non-competitive activities. Topics discussed span current affairs, culture, the arts, food and more. New vocabulary stemming from discussions is explored and later revisited. Also, although not the main focus of the course, periodic revision of grammar is included.

What to Bring:

Notepad & Pen
