Description

Who hasn’t dreamt of speaking French? It’s a romantic language that opens the door to fantastic trips to France – Paris, Nice, Bordeaux, Marseille, and more – while being able to converse and express oneself in the native tongue.

The French for Beginners Diploma Course will help you to learn the key words, phrases and idioms used in daily French in order to engage in basic, day-to-day conversations. With 10 modules, each accompanied by a downloadable audio version and concluding in a multiple-choice assessment, this course will ensure you develop accurate comprehension and pronunciation.

You’ll start the course by learning how various sounds in French are pronounced and you’ll become familiar with the specificities of the French alphabet.

We’ll introduce you to basic formal and informal greetings and introductions and the use of singular and plural pronouns and verbs, before moving on to numbers.

You’ll learn how to correctly pronounce numbers, and ask for and tell the time and the prices of items, along with how to make an appointment and requests, book a reservation and set an appointment.

The course will guide you through expressing your likes and dislikes and the descriptive adjectives and verbs commonly used in daily life. We’ll explore how to talk about and describe the daily activities you engage in within the home, work, travel, sports, and transportation.

We’ll explore the use of past and future tenses, such as when talking about past events, days of the week, months, seasons, plans and holiday seasons.

The course concludes with a look at common expressions used by the French media, be it in the written press, on the radio or TV.

This course:

  • Includes a downloadable audio version of each module (10 in total + an introduction and a conclusion)
  • Provides simple explanations, useful examples and effective activities
  • Ensures understanding with assessment questions
  • Helps you learn to read and write French
  • Aids you in becoming capable of having a basic conversation in French

Who is this course for?

There are many reasons for learning French. For some, it is the appeal of the sound and musicality of the language, for others, it is the need to grasp idiomatic sentences to travel to France for business, tourism or family reasons.

Whatever your reason, the French for Beginners Diploma Course will provide you with the tools you need to gain a basic, conversational level of spoken and written French and a solid foundation from which to build, should you wish to take your studies further.

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
