The ABCs of French is a series of short, focused professional-learning sessions designed to demystify points of grammar and vocabulary
that present challenges for high-school students. Each session targets one key area, such as articles, verb tenses, agreement, or idioms.
We will explore pitfalls to avoid and finish with engaging, age-appropriate classroom strategies.
The ABCs of French will comprise three series, each including three sessions. Sessions can be booked individually or as a whole
series.
This program is supported by the Department of Education.
During this series, we will explore and discuss points of grammar that present challenges for secondary-school students. We
