We will explore through theater, as in forum theater, a powerful technique of individual expression and collective reflection.

For those who want to improve their French by expressing themselves... For those who want to find themselves in a multicultural atmosphere! “The learner does not acquire two foreign ways of acting and communicating. He becomes multilingual and learns interculturality.

The reading aloud workshop is open to everyone, beginners or not, native French speakers or not, in order to learn or improve the art of reading aloud. This workshop allows both to address the technical issues of reading aloud (meaning, breathing, rhythm, phrasing, musicality ...) but also to share with other participants his taste for literature, to discover texts or authors. The sessions begin with a physical and vocal warm-up, work on breathing and voice. Each participant comes with one or two texts of their choice. During the session, excerpts from these texts are read, one or more times. They are the subject of comments by the workshop facilitator. These comments come to enlighten the reader on the perception of his reading. objectives: It is about teaching the student to master a range of reading strategies to refine and expand throughout his life. Once the learner reads fluently, strategies, such as establishing links between the text and his experience, anticipating what will follow, interpreting the implicit nature of the text, summarizing it, etc. will be addressed explicitly. Advantages : Explicit and functional teaching of reading in Spanish & French; possibility of working on authentic texts, on literature albums reinforcing motivation through their emotional side; pedagogical freedom of the teacher, who is not stuck by a framework imposed by a textbook; reading and writing are considered together, which reinforces the learning of these two skills. Our method in brief: Discuss with the participants so that they know what “reading” is, and enrich their vocabulary to promote learning to read. strengthen phonemic awareness. the pupil should be able to decompose a word heard into its successive phonemes; link reading and writing (which concretizes the relationship between oral and written). Copies and dictations are not enough, children must be made very early on to produce small free sentences or those imitating a given structure. Learning materials and supports: to facilitate written productions, gradually create a word bank displayed in class, organized thematically or alphabetically. Break down each word into syllables, observe its spelling... Tool words, which are frequent and often difficult, should be included as a priority. Each person can also have a "word box" of which he will personalize the content in an emotional way; choose various types of texts: narrative, informative...; propose various exercises of composition and variation of words and syllables using letters to manipulate, more concrete and mobilizing the kinesthetic memory; create reading games to make learning more motivating and therefore more effective; Familiarize yourself with the variations in writing (handwritten, printed, etc.).
Learning a modern foreign language, and in particular Spanish, means discovering a new way of operating, it means understanding the world differently. It is not only about knowing grammar and vocabulary, but also Spanish and Spanish-American cultural realities. If you want to know yourself, develop yourself and surpass yourself...

Qualified teacher offers individualized teaching, assistance in preparing for quizzes or exams. The method? It is a teaching of language through games, art, culture and reading (press or literary). My central point is communication (understanding what is communicated to us and communicating). Teaching is functional and cooperative. The acquisition of language skills is inseparable from cultural skills. I emphasize not only the different learning experiences that our daily lives offer us but also we want learners to talk about their culture. It’s interculturality that I prefer. Group language teaching allows for the exchange and sharing of cultures, thus promoting communication based on each person's experience but also on their daily life in a new environment. The objective is to learn with pleasure, using the language with creativity and inventiveness, without being afraid of our “mistakes”. Educational material is no longer limited to classic learning books and grammar and exercise books. We use the play as educational material from which lessons and exercises are developed. With images, music, newspaper articles, films, poems...
