What we do

We are an informal group whose members work to improve their knowledge of France and the French language.

We use “Teach Yourself French” as a text book, and members also bring along a variety of materials to work with, including audio CDs.

We are not able to support complete beginners, but would like to do so and would welcome somebody to lead such an activity.

Reports

November 2011

The French group has continued to grow during the autumn term of 2011, with new members attending in both of the groups each session. We use various approaches to help us with our conversational French and try to involve everybody without too much pressure, hence it is a very sociable afternoon. Richard Slater and Jenny Goodman continue to provide the main support and help with our learning for which we are very grateful. (Please note 9th April is Easter Monday hence no meeting on that day.)

June 2011

The French group will continue on the Monday after the annual September coffee morning when we look forward to operating with two levels of group conversation sharing and learning with the help of our two greatly appreciated expert tutors Richard Slater and Jenny Goodman.

We enjoy a very sociable afternoon together hopefully improving our knowledge and conversation skills, we would welcome any new members to come and join us in a friendly atmosphere
