The module French for Beginners 2 is designed for students with basic knowledge, equivalent to the A1 level of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages, or acquired during the module French for Beginners 1. Together, these two modules provide a framework through which students can acquire and develop their basic French language skills at the A1/A2 level. Students consolidate their fundamental language skills and develop their communication competencies in an intercultural context. They learn to apply these skills appropriately in general and professional situations. Students gain a deeper insight into everyday life and the professional world in France, and develop an awareness of different language registers.
