Course Description

9th Jan cancelled - rescheduled for 26th March

This course is aimed at people with good prior knowledge of French or near-bilingual speakers who would like to develop their speaking skills and learn about various aspects of French culture, history, and literature. This term we will be reading a mystery novel by Fred Vargas, analysing a film (Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi), and discussing the many linguistic evolutions of the language in other French-speaking countries. It is a rich and entertaining course for anyone who loves France!

Half term 12th -16th February

Your Tutor

I have always been incredibly passionate about history and literature and hold two BAs: one in Anglo-American Literature and History, and another in English-Italian Linguistics. In 2019, I obtained my MA in English Drama and Literature, specializing in the Restoration era and 1960s England. After growing up in the United States and then living for sixteen years in the South of France, I came to England in 2016. I currently reside in Brighton with my husband, daughter, and French cat. I teach foreign languages (French, English, and Italian) in Brighton & Hove, and Rottingdean, as well as mentoring sixth form students. I am passionate about: art, literature, history, yoga, gastronomy
