French – Building on Basics

A few keen learners started the class in September 2021 as planned, before Covid-19 took over our lives, but we soon had to give up.

We started again in September 2022, on Friday morning at 10.15, lasting an hour and thirty minutes, with a coffee break. It is a class for false beginners, i.e. people who have a little knowledge of the language. The emphasis is on speaking and understanding oral French.

We are now moving into a class called “Building on Basics”, at the Baptist church, Station road, Tewkesbury, room on the first floor, as you enter the building, or at the back of the building, next to the kitchen.

The details are as follows:

£2.50 per person, payable weekly on the day. If you cannot attend, you do not need to pay.

We are doing Facon de Parler 2; 4th edition, student’s book. The U3A has bought a few copies they can lend to students, or you can buy your own copy if you prefer, to write in it, for example.

The Winter term started on Friday 9t January and will finish on Friday 13th February; and the Spring term will start on Friday 27th February 2026.

At the start of the year we celebrated Epiphany the French way, with a Galette des Rois, and Maria was our queen for the day; I wonder what the next celebration will be. Come and see for yourself.
