WHAT IS A CONVERSATION COURSE?

For the learner, it is above all a question of speaking, of being active, of producing from subjects close to his life and personal experience. It is also about helping learners to better understand the language in order to express themselves better.

For who ? And what levels?

• Active people who learned French at school and are looking for an opportunity to practice it. In this case, the lesson could be called “I remember my French”.

• Students in French in addition to a more academic French course or preparation for an exam.

• French enthusiasts, for fun, always!

What are the needs of the participants?

Feel at ease, gain self-confidence, overcome your fear to interact with French speakers: understand as best as possible, express yourself as best as possible, have fun (again!).

What objectives?

The purpose of a conversation course is the idea expressed in the CEFR that the purpose of learning a language is to “satisfy… communicative needs”, and to enable learners to “exchange information and ideas… and communicate their thoughts and feelings”.

An atmosphere/atmosphere above all: learners want to have a good time, friendly, sociable. From then on, we have the ideal framework to express oneself, formulate and share one’s opinions, to share one’s experiences, to expand one’s vocabulary and one’s knowledge, to interact in French in a real situation.
