FLEX:Understanding French Grammar for Intermediate & Advanced Students (Part II)

In this flexible course, students will learn about the function of the sentence (la phrase de base) and they will learn about the types of sentences (impérative, exclamative, passive, negative, etc.) Then, we will learn about the various ponctuations (le point, le point virgule, etc.) As the weeks progress, students will gain confidence in their grammar skills since they will be building on their learned knowledge. Also, this is an intermediate and advanced level french class for students. This class is great for students who have French experience because the class will be taught in French.
