Objectives
To develop your communication and debating skills and improve your listening comprehension using authentic documents.
Learning approach There will be discussion (e.g. on French and international news), debates and activities addressing economic affairs (banking, finance, insurance, business, international relations, etc.) in a dynamic way.
Resources
Authentic documents (newspaper articles, magazines, radio and television clips and blogs) will help to consolidate the learner’s written and oral French (correcting accent and syntax, distinguishing different registers, understanding the implicit) and facilitate quick and fluent speaking.
Tutor Anne de Chillaz has many years’ experience in teaching French as a foreign language as well as a background in international relations, economic development, finance and business.
Suggestions Our students often round up their learning journey with an Ecofin course or another specialised French course. If you seek official recognition of your level, an exam is ideal like the Diplôme de Français Professionnel – Affaires – Niveau C1. Please note the IFRU is currently not an examination centre for CCIP exams. For other exam locations please refer to the CCI Paris Ile-de-France website:
