French for Advanced Improvers for Adults

This course is for anyone who has studied a considerable amount of French before (at least 40 hours tuition) and wishes to improve on their intermediate knowledge or polish their French making it more "French".

This course is scheduled for two hours per week, Wednesdays 7-9pm (term time only).  You will be expected to attend all of your timetabled sessions on time, unless prior arrangement has been made and agreed with your tutor.

If a student arrives more than ten minutes late for class, they may be asked to leave. If a student is absent for three consecutive weeks without notice they will automatically be withdrawn from the course.

While you will not receive a formal qualification, this fun and informative course will help expand and practise your skills in French.

You will be able to hold transactional conversations in French about various topics covered during the course and write some basic information and instructions.

You should be able to understand most general things said to you in these kinds of conversations and transactions while being able to understand most written instructions.
