GEOS Languages PLUS offers a Part Time Afternoon French Course for those students wishing to learn French in their free time. During the afternoon the students will join an French Course where they will participate in the active listening portion of the class.
Note: 1 lesson = 45 minutes
During this class, students will cover a variety of topics while practicing French conversation management, conversational styles, and pronunciation. Students learn commonly-used idioms and slang in a communicative way. Teachers also use various activities to practice these new idioms including listening tasks, role play, and discussion.
A GEOS French course features a comprehensive curriculum with a focus on oral communication - speaking and listening. Well trained and highly qualified instructors help students improve their conversation skills through a variety of creative activities. There are six different levels of study, from beginner through proficient.
A placement test helps us find the best class level for each student. At the end of each four-week session, each student will receive a written evaluation and have a one-on-one with one of their teachers. This is how we help you monitor your progress. After each three month semester, students receive a report card, and students receive a GEOS certificate when they finish their course.
