to provide participants with tools and activities to use in their classes and perfect the necessary skills to create others
to encourage cross-cultural exchanges and the transfer of skills between teachers
to impart a meta-teaching approach that has proven its worth over several years, the professionalism of which continues to satisfy all participants
Foreign French teachers or trainee teachers
Groups of approximately 8 to 16 participants, ensure easy participation, a true group dynamic, individual attention from the teacher as well as encouraging an enriching exchange of diverse teaching experiences
The course’s primary ambition is to truly distinguish itself from the “classic” university training courses for teaching French as a Foreign Language. The course covers the theoretical aspects that distinguish the different approaches to teaching French as a Foreign Language and identifies the resources available. However, the main emphasis is put on placing you in real situations, having provided you with the necessary tools to prepare customised class activities in small groups. Our objective is certainly to provide you with a wide variety of ready-to-use activities, but it is first and foremost to give you the skills necessary to develop this material in order to achieve complete autonomy in creating modern communicative activities.
Thus you will find yourself in the role of student and can pinpoint the real difficulties encountered by your own students. Also as a teacher, seeking to adapt material so that it suits your students’ characteristics (nationality, level, objectives, etc.). This takes place in an atmosphere of reflection and debate that promotes cross-cultural exchange.
Our training modules are set up like an itinerary guided by cross-cultural interaction with the aim of developing trainees’ awareness of the filters that define how we perceive others. So, advertising, French songs, films, text messaging language, reality shows, etc. make up the bulk of the materials studied, which, following a tried and tested meta-teaching approach, enable the basic themes of fundamental grammar, phonetics, oral expression, civilisation, linguistics applied to the class teaching, global simulation, etc. to be covered.
