French

Vibrant and original, Espaces takes a fresh, student-friendly approach to introductory French, aimed at making students’ learning and instructors’ teaching easier, more enjoyable, and more successful. Espaces develops students’ speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills so that they will be able to express their own ideas and interact with others meaningfully and for real-life purposes.

Introducing Perspectives, a new Intermediate French program that offers a unique focus on the cultural perspectives of the French-speaking world by embedding cultural products and practices into every aspect of instruction. Perspectives teaches students to communicate inside and outside the classroom with competence and understanding in the target culture.
