Class experience
US Grade 9 - 12
This class is designed for French students who have completed 3 years of French study. Students will focus on one of the four skills (speaking, listening, reading, and writing) each week, completing work in more complex topics. All of this will be done completely in French unless I have explained something several different ways and students are still struggling. While some of the activities do build from class to class (we will be reading through a book throughout the year, and writing our...
I have been learning French for 9 years now, from French 1 - French 5 as well as 4 years of immersion French classes. I am conversationally fluent and at a C1 level. I have tutored French immersion from May 2020 through August 2020 when the French immersion school near us closed for quarantine, and I've been teaching French online for two years. I also continue to take French lessons with native speakers, and I am working towards my Bachelors in French, which includes classes in advanced French immersion, French literature, and French education. I attended a 7-week summer French immersion camp through Middlebury College. I also have my certification in TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language), the principles from which I apply to my French classes.
Homework Offered
IF students need a grade FROM ME: students are required to complete 4 activities per week (chosen from a list of listening, speaking, reading, and writing options) and an exam every 7 weeks they are enrolled. IF students do NOT need a grade from me: students are still expected to practice outside of class (with homework or just review) but there is not a specific number of assignments. Exams will still be available, and while highly encouraged, they are optional.1 - 2 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
Students will receive an exam 1 time each semester as a take home assignment (with a separate speaking exam meeting). Exams are REQUIRED for students who need a grade, and highly encouraged for everyone else.Grades Offered
Letter grades for assignments are offered. Grades are 30% in-class participation, 45% weekly homework, and 25% quarterly exams.
This class is for students who have taken approximately 3 years of French. See the description for specific skills students should already know.
Students may bring a notebook and pencil to take notes if they wish. Students will need the book Thèmes: AP French Language and Culture by Geneviève Delfosse, Eliane Kurbegov, and Parthena Draggett if they need grades (the textbook will only be used for homework). This book is about $20 on Amazon: Themes AP French Language and Culture Student Edition https://a.co/d/cN51TDy
Break out rooms will be used some weeks in this class for group work IF we have at least 4 students. All break-out rooms will be closely monitored by me switching between rooms to keep students on-topic and help when needed. If a particular group of students gets to a point of being out-of-control and other methods don’t work, break-out rooms may be put on pause for 5-7 weeks.
Students will be asked to buy Thèmes: AP French Language and Culture by Geneviève Delfosse, Eliane Kurbegov, and Parthena Draggett if they need grades (the textbook will only be used for homework)
