Intermediate French Conversation COURSE DESCRIPTION
Intermediate French Conversation helps you improve your listening and speaking skills, intonation, pronunciation, and most
importantly, it helps you expand your linguistic comfort zone.
We use practical, real-life contexts to study and practice essential grammar concepts while building confidence and fluency.
The course is taught primarily in French, but OF COURSE you are welcome to use English to ask questions or clarify
points. Convivialité et bonne humeur au rendez-vous !
Course Outcomes
Class members learn and practice vocabulary in the context of everyday interactions; improve their pronunciation and
intonation in French; learn to use the future tense, the conditionnel mood, and basic object pronouns; and build confidence
in their listening comprehension and speaking skills.
Course activities include short readings to work on pronunciation, intonation, and fluidity, and to build useful vocabulary.
The readings also serve as a springboard for conversation in French.
