Bienvenue a la classe de français. Your journey begins as you explore the language and culture of the people throughout the world who speak French. In class, we will listen to music, watch videos, and converse as together we practice the language and become more comfortable with it. Practice is the key. You will receive a cd program to aide in homework preparation. Both the listening skill and the writing skill benefit from using the program. Be patient and together we will enjoy this journey.
