For those who live or travel in French-speaking countries or who wish to communicate with French speakers, this is a course to give you the basics. It will give you lots of exposure to listening and reading the language and give you tips for how to manage when you do not understand every word that is said. This course gives you the chance to practise speaking and writing through interacting with other learners of French, people we encourage you to make friends with so you can continue to practise together when the course has finished.
