At the beginning of the session following the results of an oral and written test, every student will be oriented to a specific class and will receive a detailed summary of the subjects to be covered during the courses (the schedule is being updated every week).
We mainly distinguish three levels (beginners, intermediate, and advanced), divided each in two groups
A1 and A2 for beginners
B1 and B2 for intermediate
C1 for advanced students and C2 for the bilingual
This level is designed to teach you basic language structures and vocabulary for use in ordinary everyday life. Spoken French and oral comprehension are emphasised, but written French is not neglected.
By the end of the course, you will be able to get by in French. You will be able to manage simple conversations and to communicate information about yourself to someone else.
By the end of this course you will be able to communicate in more complex situations. This course revises and deepens your understanding of syntax and grammar. You will learn how to express your opinions and feelings more accurately and become familiar with the various registers of French.
Our approach emphasises the ability to communicate but does not neglect the French way of life. Intermediate students make use of a wide range of cultural resources : press articles, videos, audio recordings, literary works, songs, etc.
Morning classes are devoted to French language and grammar while those in the afternoon are devoted to a particular cultural theme, discussed or introduced through a variety of media.
By the end of your course, you will have encountered a broad croos-section of French culture and language.
This level is for those who are already comfortable speaking French.
It consists of a study of contemporary French society, its manners and mindset, through newspapers, radio, cinema and television and gives you the ability to express yourself clearly and fluently in the language.
Students perfect their written French by producing summaries of texts, including news reports and written arguments. The content of lessons depends on a class's ability and needs, but can include further work on grammar and vocabulary.
