Until further notice, all classes will be virtual

Intermediate 1 – Part 1

The Intermediate classes consist of 2 semesters:  fall and spring.  Intermediate classes are for students who have completed the Advanced Beginner classes (now called Beginners 2), or have acquired equivalent knowledge through other activities or experiences.

Intermediate classes provide a reinforcement of the Advanced Beginner (Beginners 2) classes while expanding on the uses and nuances of the present and the past tenses.  Focus is given to comparing and contrasting the use of the Passé Composé and Imparfait. Students will be introduced to the Future and Conditional tenses. Students will polish their pronunciation and develop listening and conversational skills.  Francophone culture is an integral part of the course.

Intermediate 2 – Part 1

Intermediate 2 classes consist of 2 semesters:  fall and spring.  The Intermediate 2 classes are a continuation of the Intermediate 1 classes.  The Intermediate 2 classes will provide a reinforcement of the Intermediate 1 classes while expanding on the uses and nuances of the Indicative mood:  Present, Past, Imperfect, Future and Conditional tenses.  Since the emphasis is to improve pronunciation, listening and speaking skills, students taking these classes must be willing to speak French in class.  These classes will provide ample opportunities to improve not only pronunciation, listening and speaking skills but also dictionary and translation skills. Students will learn the Passé Simple tense (the French literary past tense) and preview the Subjunctive mood.   Francophone culture is an integral part of the course.
