Is Spanish your native language? Are you interested in learning French for the first-time ever? If yes/si/oui, this class is for you! There are similarities between Spanish and French that can provide an advantage to Spanish speakers when learning French.

French is filled with homophones, words that are spelled differently, but are pronounced the same way, for example: la mer, la mère, and le maire. Each set of homophones will be followed by an exercise. All exercises will be done in class. No homework, just a fun time!
Schedule: Thursdays July 30th - August 20th (4-weeks) 6:30pm - 8pm
Level: A1 – A2

Each week, you’ll receive a series of texts, and you’ll be asked to prepare the reading of one of the texts (for example, making sure you understand the text, so you can put the right intonation, or marking the liaisons on the page). In class, participants will take turns reading out loud. It’s a great way to improve pronunciation and gain some confidence.

Each week, we’ll read a text together (news article, recipe, general text, etc.), and we’ll build together a vocabulary list based on the text. You’ll discover the whole text in class. It’s a great class to challenge yourself by using your deductive skills on the spot, the participants will be able to brainstorm, and you’ll receive tips about building a vocabulary list. Facultative homework: each participant will be able to send the teacher 3-5 sentences with the words of the lesson to receive a personalized correction.
