Class Experience

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 teenagers from 14 to 18 years old. All are welcome. There is weekly homework to practice what has been learned during class.

The book and the workbook AlterEgo A1 are mandatory and learners must have them before starting class.
Available on Amazon.com.

During our weekly lesson, we read, listen, watch French videos, we work on comprehension, oral expression, and writing. 
I am a fun teacher, I have a lot of patience, and I like to encourage the students to speak and write. À bientôt!
