FREN 1010 Elementary French II

Classes are conducted primarily in French. Students with prior French experience admitted only by placement test. This course is a continuation of FREN1009 (Elementary French I) and is also open to students who have placed into this course without having completed FREN1009. Course goals include laying a foundation for Intermediate French, expanding vocabulary, and building oral proficiency. Elementary French II is a film-based course supplemented with web-based assignments and an online language lab.
