Beginner & Intermediate Courses

These French Language Courses are suitable for those who have not completed grade-12 core French.

All these courses are quite intensive and require the completion of numerous assignments and exercises throughout the semester. While there are several tests and quizzes, there is no final exam.

The Introductory courses aim at bringing your understanding of French grammar to the level of grade-12 core French. They also build solid reading and pronunciation skills and an active vocabulary of about 1000 words.

The Intermediate courses focus on practicing speaking and writing skills, as well as reviewing the grammar and vocabulary learned in Introductory courses (or elsewhere) while adding more details to the former and enriching the latter.

Sometimes even more intensive courses are offered in the summer:

  • FREA90Y3: Intensive Introductory French (this course combines FREA96 & FREA97)
  • FREA91Y3: Intensive Intermediate French (this course combines FREA98 & FREA99)
