Course overview
This very popular course is designed for students who have completed French Conversation - Level 1.
The focus of this course is to reinforce the basics acquired in French Conversation - Level 1 or equivalent, and to progress towards more complex sentence structures and grammatical elements. A mini-immersion style will be used in class with French language used increasingly to familiarise students with the sounds and nuances of the language.
Topics include:
- Self-introduction
- To talk about / to introduce ... one’s family
- The verbs “to like”, “to love”, “to dislike”
- Interests, likes and dislikes
- Regular verbs at the present tense – description of common situations
- Numbers, date, phone numbers, time
- The genre of nouns: masculine vs feminine
- Using adjectives
- Possession: my/your/his
- To talk about future projects
In the final class students will be encouraged to participate in an outing to a local French restaurant. This will be a fun cultural experience for all involved. This will be discussed with students at the first lesson.
This short course is non-accredited therefore is not registered with the National Training Register.
Ways to study

No matter which campus you choose, you know that you will be learning in an adult environment where you will be respected and nurtured. Attend a campus to learn face-to-face with a teacher in one of our learning spaces; such as a classroom, workshop, laboratory or simulated environments, or interact with teachers using real-time video or web conference tools.
