ABOUT THIS WORKSHOP

Have you ever wondered how to write an email in French? How to politely say “I’ll circle back”? Whether you should use tu or vous with your French colleagues?

We’ve got you covered: this workshop is for people who want to start using French in a professional setting. If you work for a French company or an organization that operates in French-speaking countries, if you have French-speaking coworkers or partners, or if you’re planning to move to France for work, you’ll benefit from getting more comfortable with business French.

In this workshop, we will:

  • Go over some work-related cultural differences between France and the US
  • Go over the vocabulary you need to work in French and navigate French corporate culture
  • Learn about “anglicismes” in the French business world, and how to use them to your advantage!
  • Learn to write a professional email in French
