Course Levels
Choose the level you think is most appropriate for you. We can place you in a different level once classes begin if need be.
Beginner 1: For those with little or no previous knowledge of French. Learn to share information about yourself in French and ask basic questions of those around you.
Beginner 2 and Lower Intermediate: You already have experience with French through a conversational beginner course. Add to your basic vocabulary in everyday situations and start forming compound and complex sentences. You will focus on speaking correctly and distinguishing between the past, present and future tenses.
Intermediate and Advanced: You are able to hold a conversation on a variety of topics, but still need improvement in more complex grammatical structures and complex sentence formation. You will improve your grammar and vocabulary through interesting conversational exercises such as debates, presentations, cultural discussions and small group work using authentic materials.
