Subject outline

In this subject students undertake written and oral exercises designed to consolidate linguistic skills developed in second-year intermediate French, enhancing both fluency and accuracy and enabling them to attain a B2 level in the Common European Framework. These will include discussions on topics of social, cultural and political significance. Aural comprehension activities will develop listening accuracy, and will involve authentic audio visual materials including films, songs, news reports and other media. Written work will include grammar revision and application via exercises and composition, as well as analysis of authentic texts. Reading skills are enhanced by studying a range of genres and styles. Students should improve their reading comprehension and begin to develop skills in critical analysis.
