French Language |
The French Program at HUCE uses communication as a core strategy to teach French, which is then learned in a relaxed, interactive, and productive manner at our modern and technology centered facility in Silver Spring, Maryland. Grammar, in this context, plays a secondary role in the language acquisition process, being learned and inferred through communicative classroom activities and role-playing exercises.
The course also elaborates on various significant cultural aspects of the Francophone Diaspora and is well structured to give the student a solid base for accurate communication, reading, writing, and comprehension of this beautiful language.
