French 103 -- Smash the Language Barrier!
CRN: 10772
If you
haven't taken French and want to jumpstart your learning, consider French 103
for the fall semester.
The title is
"Intensive Beginning French."
It meets 5
days a week.
It counts as
2 courses.
Is it harder
than a typical French course? No. It simply meets MWF and TTh,
so you get double the exposure and practice than in a normal semester.
Most
students who've taken the course find it's the most efficient way to learn
French. You meet every day and, in
addition, you have 4 Practice sessions (“AT’s”) each
week. So you don't have time to forget
what you're learning and much of the homework is accomplished in the Practice
Sessions
We speak
French 100% of the time in class. Most
of the in-class work is based on conversation.
By the end
of the course, you'll be able to order a meal in a restaurant, write a letter
to a French friend, and talk about your
family, your friends, your activities, and your experiences -- all in French.
Here are a
few comments from students who've taken the course:
"I
absolutely loved it-from how much we learned to the organization of the course
to the class environment."
"I
loved it! It was very intensive and I
was in 5 classes, but I am so happy I signed up for the course."
Discussions: "Always productive in that we get to
practice speaking and have fun at the same time."
