Continuing Education :: Oral Communication

Oral Communication

Beginner

1, 2, 3 and 4

New program

These courses are designed for adults with either little or no knowledge of the French language. Participants will develop listening and speaking skills for practical, everyday conversation.

Our goal is to help you improve your competency in French and we'll work with you so that you can achieve this objective. However, do not forget that you are the key to your own success and that you must commit fully to your language training and cooperate with the team to maximise the results.  

 We encourage you to:

  • actively participate during classes;
  • take advantage of the different activities proposed and organized by our team;
  • communicate in French at all times, thus respecting our educational approach.

Commit yourself to respect all these points!

Participants with some knowledge of the language must take a placement test which consists in an interview administered by telephone.

Participants who have no knowledge will be automatically placed at level 1.  

The placement test is MANDATORY for all those students who know a little French unless they have taken a class at the Institut français during the last year.
