Level 2 French 2025
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Anna O'Farrell, Maurice Nelson.
In Level 2 French you start to move beyond the familiar and discover more complex language which allows you to communicate with greater fluency and explore your personal views and perspectives, as well as support and challenge those of others on a variety of topics.
We use a mix of authentic resources, games and French foreign language resources to explore language throughout the year. Topics include: Personal and Family Relationships; a French film study; a study on diversity and society in France; Francophone countries around the world.
Level 2 French uses a blended learning approach where there is a solid balance of face-to-face interaction and online delivery of instruction and content. As a student moving through a topic on a daily basis, they will have a degree of control over their learning in each of the skill areas. B
By pursuing French, they will gain valuable language skills that will be of benefit in multiple careers such as travel and tourism, law, business and communication. Language learners are proven to be highly effective communicators and decision-makers, with strong perceptive abilities, which are important skills needed in our future workforce. Let us also not forget the beauty of the language and the sophistication of French culture.
