FRENCH LESSONS ONLINE WITH A TEACHER
ON SKYPE OR ON THE TELEPHONE!
Conversation session programme
|
The long distance learning approach greatly enhances the comprehension and expression level of the student. There being no visual aids (apart from the notes typed by the teacher on the skype chat board), the student's concentration is highly focused.
Every French conversational session is structured and personalized to the student's level and pace of learning - they are performed in a fun and stimulating atmosphere with an encouraging teacher!
During the conversation session, the teacher will correct you as you speak and will type any new vocabulary, expressions and corrections on the Skype chat board. The teacher will motivate you to express your opinions, your thoughts, will debate with you, will have you ask questions, will work on your pronunciation, will gently push you forward so that you can express yourself in French with more fluidity and up-to-date expressions. After each session, the teacher will send the Skype chat board notes of the conversation to you via email.
WHO IS IT FOR?
For anyone who has an intermediate or advanced French level who wishes to practice their verbal expression, improve their comprehension skills in a structed class. You will be gently corrected while speaking in order to gain better oral fluency. Every session lasts 50 minutes.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
After evaluating your current French level and your objectives with an advisor, a teacher will arrange with you a 50 minutes French session at a day and time most convenient to you.
The session will take place via Internet with Skype. Before each session, the teacher will send some material to you such as an article, a picture, a story or a role play to perform which will be used as a conversation topic during the lesson.
At the end of the lesson, you will schedule your next lesson date directly with your teacher.
After the lesson, the teacher will send the notes that were taken during class time into a Word file for you to review.
EXTRA: In addition to the lessons and the homework and in order to practice your French on a daily basis, you will be able to join our forum and respond to the"Question du Jour" in French. After you've responded, the teacher who posted the Question will read your response and make the corrections - this way, you will continue to receive ongoing feedback on a daily basis. There is no extra fee for this service.
