Bonjour! My name is Laura. I am a French native speaker and I teach the class in French. I do translate as needed to help the learners to understand and memorize what they are learning. The class is for children from 12 to 15 years old. Some French is recommended before signing for this class but not mandatory if you apply yourself. There is weekly homework to practice what has been learned during class. The book and the workbook Adomania 1 are mandatory and learners must have them before starting class.
