About This Class
You have an intermediate level in French, but you sometimes struggle to write in French?
This course is meant to help you improve your writing skills. In addition to the videos, you'll find many documents (texts in pdf, exercises, corrections, description of tasks...). They are accessible in the Project section.
First, you'll get better at writing emails in French: I'll give you some typical phrases you can use in formal as well as informal emails. I have provided you with a few exercises you can do to check your understanding of these phrases, and a final task for which you'll have to write three different emails yourself. Also, you'll find a proposition of correction for these tasks.
Writing in French also implies you need to know a lot of vocabulary. That is why I created five texts about five different topics which will allow you to learn lots of new words and phrases. Again, you'll find some vocabulary exercises to use the words in context, and the corrections of these exercises.
Finally, when you want to structure your ideas and construct a clear text in French, you need connective words to introduce your arguments and ideas. That is why you'll find a few videos explaining the use of the main connective words in French. In the resources, you'll find a recap of these connectives, the documents with the texts I used in the videos, and two exercises that you can do online.
Once you've done all that, you'll be ready for the project - which consists in practising writing in French thanks to five different subjects.
I hope this course will help you get better at writing in French! Don't forget that you need to practise as much as possible, and that it's also necessary to read in French: by doing so, you'll learn many things about the construction of sentences, typical phrases that are used in articles, texts or emails, and you'll be able to use them yourself.
You can also watch my course about dictations to improve spelling in French, which is another skill you'll definitely need if you want to become better at writing.
Good luck with the course!
Hands-on Class Project
The project of this course is extremely important as the first way to improve your skills in writing French is by... writing !
First of all, I strongly recommend you do all the exercises related to writing emails, learning vocabulary and using connective words. You'll find the resources in this section. Remember you also have two exercises that you can do online: they are about the use of connectives in French.
Finally, once you have watched all the classes of this course, you can do the project: it consists in five little tasks about five different topics. In order to complete these tasks, you'll need to use what you have learned during the course. For each of them, I have proposed a constraint and a tip to help you finish the task. I chose subjects that will surely allow you to use your knowledge and develop it: it can be writing an email, writing a letter, writing a comment on the Internet... Lots of situations where you could have to write in French! Once you have completed a subject, you can upload it in the Project Gallery (click on "Create a Project"). I will provide feedback and let you know how you can improve your writing skills. Also, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to start a discussion! I will happily answer.
Good luck and congratulations for completing the course! I hope this has helped you and I'll see you very soon for a new course in French.
