Bonjour TLM,

Welcome to a new series of learning for the French Language: Towards Fluency.

Towards Fluency is a uniquely designed study method specifically geared toward bridging the gap between Intermediate Level French and Fluency. The program can be completed as a self-guided study, but is best used in conjunction with a dedicated study group or formal language course. The program is NOT intended to be a beginner's course and is not for the faint of heart. Successful participants will have already completed Intermediate French Level I, will be self-motivated and will have a sincere desire to reach fluency.

The Kalamazoo French Language Meetup Group will host a Towards Fluency study group and will begin the 2009 Fall semester on October 8, 2009. The Towards Fluency study group will take place every Saturday from 5:30pm - 7:00pm for fourteen (14) weeks. Due to the nature of the method, new registrations are welcome and accepted throughout the fourteen week period. There is no cost for enrollment, however participants should be committed to attending the group study sessions.

The Towards Fluency program focuses on reaching confident communication which includes listening comprehension, oral communication and written communication.

If you'd like to join the Towards Fluency study group, simply make your RSVP today. If you are interested in more information, follow this LINK or EMAIL the ORGANIZER of the Kalamazoo French Language Meetup Group.

Bonjour French Speakers,

Have you always wished you could speak French? And, maybe you started your journey years ago or even recently. Well, we’re interested in helping you achieve your goal!

Beginning Thursday, October 8, 2009, the Kalamazoo French Language Meetup Group will host a Beginning French Study Group. If you’re new to French or your French is a bit rusty, we’d like to help you bring it out and polish it up.

French NOW! is a beginning French study group. The purpose of the group is to build a solid base of knowledge in the French language. This group is designed for the beginning student providing him/her with the foundation necessary to reach fluency. The study group for French NOW! is offered in two semesters.

Upon completion of the study, one should have a solid foundation in the basic structures of the French language. The focus of this group is on French for communication and the primary objective is to help you communicate freely in French.

French NOW! will be presented Mr. Djibril Cisse. Mr. Cisse has studied French in his native country of Senegal from childhood.

The cost for attending French NOW! Is $8.00 per person / per session. Payments are made at or prior to class. As an added bonus, French NOW! students are encouraged to stay and participate with the Intermediate/Advance study (which directly follows French NOW!) group at NO ADDITIONAL COST (i.e. - one price covers both sections).

So, don’t wait, make your desire a reality today. RSVP now! We’re waiting to help you along.

*** Late arrivals will be accepted for registration for a few weeks. After that, by permission of the facilitator. REGISTER TODAY!!

SALUT!

Bienvenue à Tous et Toutes,

Are you looking to brush-up on your French. Are you in need of a little review of the grammar, pronunciation and the finer points of the French Language while enjoy the opportunity of building your French conversational skills?

If so, then please join us as we embark upon a new French language development and growth series presented by The Kalamazoo French Language Meetup Group: Les Pensées et La Discussions: Les Conversations au Sujet d’Oeuvres Écrit. The series is presented by Mr. Djibril Cisse who has studied French in his native country of Senegal from childhood. During this series, Mr. Cisse will take us on a journey of a variety of French culture.

Successful participants in this discussion group will have a sincere desire for improvement and will have completed a Beginning and/or Intermediate Level French course. Beginners are welcome to attend but should understand that the specially selected intermediate/advanced level readings and discussions are entirely in French with extremely minimal English interjection.

In addition to the weekly readings, participants will complete weekly intermediate level grammar assignments and will be given an opportunity to gain a deep and clear understanding and use of the French grammar.

This intermediate / advanced discussion group is hosted weekly and is based on various French readings.

So, if you’ve had some previous French and you’re looking for an opportunity to grow and learn more, then now is your chance to make it happen! Don’t wait. Register TODAY. This series is offered at $8.00 per person / per session. The sessions are held each Thursday from 7pm - 8pm.

Because of the SHORT STORY nature of this course, registration is open throughout the semester.

The series begins with the book Le Pagne Noir - a collection of short stories by Bernard Dedié, and grammar book Interaction: Révision de Grammaire Française by Susan St. Onge et al. ISBN: 0838406025 . Books are required for participation.

***Participants in this series are welcome to attend French NOW!, the beginning French study group, at no additional cost. (i.e. - two for the price of one).
