Our range of leisure and hobby courses keeps growing, with even more fun and exciting courses starting throughout 2024.
COURSE OVERVIEW
The main aim of French Beginners is to help you learn the basics of the French language and build a strong foundation for further study. You will cover essential vocabulary and grammar topics that will enable you to communicate in everyday situations that you might encounter whilst travelling in France or French speaking countries. Throughout the course, you will have the opportunity to:
- Develop your confidence in using French in a variety of everyday settings such as introducing yourself, ordering food and drink, getting by in tourist situations, and talking about your hobbies and interests.
- Practise your listening and speaking skills through a variety of interactive activities, including dialogues, role plays, and audio exercises.
- Develop your reading and writing skills through comprehension tasks and short written assignments.
- Learn about different aspects of French life and culture.
By the end of the course, you should feel more confident in your ability to understand and speak French at a basic level. We hope you enjoy the journey and wish you much success in your studies!
