The Department of Language
Research and Teaching offers four Basic
Courses focusing on the four communicative
skills: listening, reading, writing and
speaking. These courses are
student-centered, using the challenges they
face as a means to engage them, to
facilitate their acquisition of practical
communicative abilities, and to teach them
grammar structures, listening, reading,
writing and speaking in context.
The
four basic language courses aim to prepare students for the new DELF
exam (Diplôme d’Etudes en Langue Française)
level B2.
The Department also offer
two additional groups of language courses
(Group B and C).
In the Department of
Language Research and Teaching, students can
also study Italian, German, Spanish, and
Chinese. |

NYU in France, ont animé, le 9

pour les langues par le Cadre européen
de référence et de présenter la
nouvelle méthode de français langue
étrangère "Alors?", niveaux A1 et A2
de J.C. Beacco et M. Di Giura
(Editions Didier), d'après leurs
expériences respectives de
l'utilisation en classe de ces manuels
fondés sur l'approche par compétences
telles que décrites par le Cadre
européen de référence. |
