​

Advanced Level:

​

In this course, we move into high gear. The idea is to encounter all sorts of French, in all its forms: spoken, written, formal, and informal. We study advanced articles taken from reputable newspapers, film excerpts, radio programs, which call for a wide range of vocabulary and sentence structures. We address important issues (like the environment, and society) so that students have the tools to defend their ideas and express their points of view with ease. Learning also focuses on the use of challenging verbs, long sentence structures, and the study of complex idioms used by French speakers.

​

Who You Are:

​

• Pretty near fluent and truly ready to advance your French! 

• Someone with goals of frequently visiting, working in, or completely relocating to a Francophone Nation;

• An art, political, history, literature, and/or French enthusiast eager to discuss your passions with and like a Native.

​​

What You’ll Learn:

​

You’re almost there! With much finesse, you have “advanced” to the study of more nuanced, complex forms of the past and future tenses, as well as creative expression actions and hypotheses. Every session includes reading & and discussion of literature, current news, and culture – in French! You'll learn to:

​

• Use past and future tense to communicate creative expression, actions, and hypotheses. 

• Read and discuss topical French media and materials;

• Share ideas in a professional context;

• Compare personal experiences and negotiate.
