This course is suitable for learners who have studied the language before and are comfortable with the present and future tense. We will continue to build your vocabulary and start talking about the past, drawing inspiration from our real lives. By the end of the course, you will be able to:
use verbs in the past to talk about your daily routine
describe what you did last week
talk about past holidays
use adjectives to compare objects (bigger than, not as big as, etc)
Spending time in France? Ever had a problem in a restaurant or being understood?
Want a holiday recommendation or to buy at the market like a local? Want to hire a bike or chat to the taxi driver? Get ready to practise your perfect tense and perfect your pronouns to enable you to talk about anything from local excursions to finding parking spaces! This course is suitable for people who can get by in most simple situations and are starting to develop confidence using the passé compose. By the end of this course you will be able to:
• use the present perfect “I have been, I have done” to talk about your experiences
• Use object pronouns to say things like “I told her”, “I bought it”
• Use the pronoun “en”
• Discuss the weather in the past, present and future
