The teaching methodology aims to increase conversation in a natural and spontaneous manner. Our French teachers have been trained in Education in Quebec, either at a Bachelors or Masters level and have all followed a intensive formation in teaching French as a second language .


Our entire syllabus was organised and evaluated by Professor Dieter Euler of Waterloo University in Ontario. Please be informed of his qualifications and experience at the following link Curriculum consultant: Professor Dieter Euler.

Lessons in grammar

Grammar lessons will be taught in a stimulating manner in which the teacher will present a grammar point and the students will manipulate the structure using games, visuals, audio and audio-visual aides. Although this is a grammar section students will be expected to participate orally. Grammar lessons are created according to the level of each student group. The level of the students will be evaluated with a placement test given on the first day of the course.

 

Lessons in phonetics and syntax

Pronunciation lessons will be a very important part of each day. Students will be coached on proper internationally recognised pronunciation.

Students will be encouraged to pass the TFI at the end of their immersion to measure their progress. The Test de français international (TFITM) is a French language proficiency test for people whose native language is not French and is an international standard for French language assessment. The TFI test results show how well you communicate in French in business and academic environments.
