Learning outcome: write in French with clarity and structure. My motto: learning by doing! As French people say “C’est en forgeant qu’on devient forgeron!” (Litterally: “It is by forging that one becomes a blacksmith!”). Tailored for each student’s personal challenges, the class is structured as follows: >1st session: Assessment of the learner’s level and design of the learning roadmap. >Before class: write a text from 10 to one page on a topic on history, art or science. >In-class: text correction and improvement indications. I work mainly with visual sketches, mind maps, drafts and graphs to provide the learner with insights on the way motivation and memory work. Covered during classes: >French grammar: conjugation, spelling, syntax. >Develop the French writing method: -the different sentence structures; -the structure of a paragraph (phrase d'annonce - développement logique - phrase récapitulative - transition) -the 3-paragraph convention (introduction/développement/conclusion) -logical argumentation and critical thinking according to French culture
