Learning Objectives:

to take students to a level of basic "vocational" proficiency (approximately 3 on the ISLPR scale). Students will be able to handle confidently telephone conversations, to detect certain nuances from the French (rather than from extra-linguistics clues), such as irony or admiration. News items on television will be well understood, as well as from weekly news magazines such a L'Express. Novels will only occasionally present difficulties of idiom and vocabulary. Students will generally use a wide range of complex sentence structures accurately and be able to vary their style within limited parameters.

Assessment by assignments and/or in-class tests and/or end-of-semester examinations: listening (25%); speaking (25%); reading (25%); writing (25%). Completion of three-weekly homework assignments is a compulsory requirement of the subject.
