Aims

The aim of the French for Beginners 2 course is to strengthen and further develop language skills on A1 level of CEFR in order to foster communicative competence in everyday situations, such as work, travel, and study. This course directly follows French for Beginners 1 and covers further core grammatical structures and lexis to complete A1 level.

 

By the end of the course, students will be equipped with basic knowledge of French grammar and lexis and thus able to understand and take part in simple conversations as well as understand and write short and simple texts on familiar topics immediately related to their personal and/or professional environment and/or interests.
