Accurate French language skills are necessary for success in a bilingual workplace. Students enhance their knowledge of reading and writing French by participating in a wide range of communication activities. Based on extensive feedback from instructors, students learn to describe past actions and to provide and request information with respect to past events. The focus is on comparing habits and activities, giving reasons and justifying actions. Students also begin to describe hypothetical situations.
This course consists of 12 classes held twice a week over a duration of 6 weeks. Classes will not be held on statutory or Ontario provincial holidays. In such instances, the course will be extended by one day at the end of the session.
