Beginners lessons A1 to A2:
These have been developed to enable the learner to quickly acquire the basic skills necessary to achieve a good level of oral and written communication in order to be able to handle practical, everyday situations.
At the same time, there is intensive phonetic and listening work.
Elementary lessons A2 to B1:
This enables the learner to consolidate a knowledge of French acquired previously and to develop skills, especially lexical and grammatical.
Systematic listening and speaking work.
Intermediate lessons B1 to B2
Emphasis will be put on extending the learner’s language skills (syntactic, grammatical and lexical), in a systematic manner, through the study of different types of text (Contemporary literature, newspaper articles, songs, elements of regional culture).
Advanced lessons I (B2 to C1) and II (C1 to C2):
These aim to update the learner’s skills by carrying out very precise work with regard to the lexicon of certain grammatical and syntactical points, as well as training towards a better command of oral and written expression. Study material can be very varied (French contemporary literature, songs, newspaper articles, radio broadcasts, and aspects of regional culture). For students with a very good knowledge of French, work can lead on to creative oral and written activities such as writing workshops or expression workshops.
