Homestays, Adult Learning, Online grinds


We've posted our Homestay Summer 2010 calender on Dates & Info.

 

We are also offering convivial courses for adults who might like to stay in the Finistère.

 

Online grinds are up and running with success. Why not make contact with Laure for a free introductory online chat. It might help you to make your mind up and get out that dusty French grammar!

 

Online modules or grinds work like this:

 

  • Modules last 30 minutes and will include prepared written tasks as well as a quick email feedback from Laure.

  • Check out our videos posted on our LikeHomeYouTube channel. They show life in Quimper.We hope this will encourage learners to chat about everyday, practical topics.

  • Conditions and cost: 75 euros for five sessions, payable in advance to our Irish bank.Fees are non-refundable except if cancellation is given 48 hours in advance.

      Our course goals

 

  • Self-assessment: A ' LikeHome French Portfolio' is given to each student to make them aware of what they already can do in French. We then plan the week's study goals and activities together.

  • Improve speaking skills: We encourage speaking French all the time.

  • To do things together in French : To carry out pratical activities such as doing  Treasure Hunt, reserving a TGV ticket, making a telephone call as well as pre-paid outings, such as to Oceanapolis.

  • Intercultural learning: To familiarize students with the rich cultural heritage of this part of France.

  • Help students with practical tips for examinations.
