Are you a natural storyteller? Translate those skills to French and learn to tell engaging stories using a variety of verb tenses and sentence structures. Learn how to build a story from exposition to resolution, choose the right tense with confidence, and study some of France’s most celebrated cinematic and literary works.
Teachers will select content and materials based on their expertise and preferences while also consulting with students to align with their expectations. Conversation classes are designed to foster a dynamic exchange of ideas. Guided by the teacher, students are encouraged to share their thoughts and experiences. The goal is to create a relaxed and engaging atmosphere—the classes are not intended to feel like a lecture or formal academic lesson.
Here are some topics that might be covered in this module. They can be adjusted based on the interests of both the teacher and the students.
- le discours indirect et rapporté, les verbes introducteurs
- les modes et les temps du récit
- la concordance des temps
- les figures de style
- extraits d’oeuvres littéraires, théâtre et cinéma
