This fairly advanced group is aimed at people who already have quite a good command of French and are keen to participate fully in discussions about French society and culture. Members take turns to present a discussion topic which could be, for example, a current news item or recent holiday. The leader, who is a French native, uses recent articles, tapes and DVDs of French films. There will be some preparatory work prior to each session. |

Enthusiastic Italophiles with a reasonably good knowledge of Italian come together to enjoy conversing in Italian. The aim is to maintain and develop their linguistic skills in an informal and relaxed fashion using CDs, DVDs and newspaper and magazine articles to stimulate discussion. Members are expected to do a certain amount of preparation between sessions. |
