French V and Beyond
This course is taught in a spiral rather than a straight line. Instead of learning rules in a linear way with a textbook, we focus on becoming confident speakers through the combination of orally applied grammar and spaced repetitions. We will study authentic situations and circle key structures of French for proficiency. For students who have completed French IV or its equivalent, and have some mastery of the three main verb groups, and être, avoir, aller, faire, and savoir, and the passé composé, imparfait, and future tenses. You will consolidate those in practical, fun speaking-intensive exercises while also familiarizing yourself more with other key structures of the language the subjonctif, les pronoms relatifs, and elusive connecting words like en and y. A particular emphasis will be placed on learning what is necessary to travel to a French-speaking country. For Section 01 and 02 course materials will be made available online for students to either access electronically or print. For Section 03, Communication Progressive du français Niveau avancé is available for purchase online.
