French Beginners level 3

Your Course
This course is suitable for those who have already studied French for 2 terms. Although the main focus of the course is the effective use of French in practical situations, students will also develop a fuller understanding of French Grammar. This will enable them to improve their proficiency in all 4 skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing in the foreign language.
The BBC course book'The French Experience 1'will be used as a focus but will be supplemented by other materials.
