With the advanced course, the student will have the opportunity to learn the grammar and vocabulary acquired with the intermediate course, but more in depth with more listening and practical activities and role play. The focus of this course is to prepare the student to live in a French speaking country. The teaching approach will also include a variety of newspapers articles (short at the beginning and longer articles as the student progresses further). The articles are used as conversation topics in order to hone vocabulary and grammar skills. Short videos from trusted resources will also be used for speaking practice during the class to boost fluency and to learn new common expressions.
