Learn French by Using French
This is not a lecture-based French course. UMC uses a communicative, student-centered approach that gives students regular opportunities to actively use the language.
Students participate in:
● Guided conversation practice
● Pair and group activities
● Real-life role-plays
● Listening comprehension activities
● Reading and writing practice
● Vocabulary-building exercises
● Grammar integrated into communication
● Presentations and collaborative projects
Students practise French through everyday situations such as introductions, ordering food, shopping, asking for directions, travel planning and healthcare interactions
