30 mins in-class hours per weekHomework
1 hour per week. I will provide worksheets so that students can practise what we have done in class and there will be options to extend their use of the tenses we cover in class. Homework is optional, but will be beneficial. Students can send me the work to look at and I will allow a few minutes after class time to go over the work they have done,Assessment
I will provide verbal feedback during class and written feedback on homework students submit. I will also provide brief written feedback to parents after each class.Class Experience
Advanced Level
We will discuss a range of topics entirely in French. Some miming etc may be involved! Students need to have a good level of spoken French and be able to read and write a little in French. The classes will be interactive, but with less singing than in some of my classes! Students are welcome to have a good quality dictionary to hand - tiny dictionaries will not be helpful. We will use the present tense, the imperfect tense, the passé composé, the future tense (je vais + infinitive) and the conditional tense in the classes. Week of 26th August : Qu'est-ce que tu as fait pendant les grandes vacances? We will talk about the things that we did during the summer. Week of 2nd September: La rentrée! French children are going back to school this week. What subjects do they study in school? Which subjects do you study? Which subjects to you like? etc. Each learner will prepare a mini lesson in French to teach the rest of the class next week. Week of 9th September: We will have mini-lessons in French! Week of 16th September. NO CLASS, as I will be travelling to France. Learners can take this time to prepare their conversations for next week's class. Week of 23rd September: European Day of Languages celebrations. Learners will teach the rest of the class simple conversations in another foreign language they know well. Week of 30th September: Les pays francophone. An introduction to countries around the world where French is the official, or one of the official, languages. Also introducing ourselves, as there are new learners in the class. Week of 7th October. Learners will tell the class about their chosen Francophone country. Introductions. Week of 14th October. Learners will tell the class about their experience of visiting or living in a Francophone country. What Francophone countries do they hope to visit in the future? Week of 21st October.
