FRENCH PREPARATORY PROGRAM

The Basic French section is part of the School of Applied Languages. It aims to provide preparatory programs in French (elementary and intermediate levels) to students who do not meet the French Language requirements necessary for studying in the Department of Translation and Interpretation.

The overall objective of the program is to enable students to reach the level required by equipping them with the necessary language skills needed to study in their chosen disciplines.

To achieve this, two level courses are offered: Elementary French and Intermediate French.

Elementary French

This course is intended for students with no knowledge of the language. By providing a solid grounding in the basic skills, students will be able to progress to higher levels. At this stage, students will start to familiarize themselves with spoken French, gradually moving on to developing speaking, reading and writing skills. A successful completion of the course will enable students to follow the Intermediate French level course.

Intermediate French

This course is for students whose French knowledge is beyond the elementary stage. It will continue to reinforce the skills development of the elementary course. However, particular emphasis will be given to speaking and writing. To build on these two skills, language classes will be based on aspects of French contemporary life and society in addition to subjects such as economics and politics.
