French Discussion Group for all levels – at the Gunn Memorial Library in Washington, CT
On Monday, April 25, the Gunn Memorial Library will host its sixth and final planned French Discussion Group meeting from 1:00 – 2:30 pm. Whether you are just learning French or are an advanced speaker, you are welcome to join*. A short article in French about a particular subject, cultural tradition or newsworthy event will be shared to initiate an informal conversation. This is not a French class, rather the emphasis will be on participants having an opportunity to offer their opinion, ask questions for better understanding and/or exchange ideas in French.
The group leader will be Marda Gutierrez who received her B.A. in Education from Albion College, MI and lived in France for 5 years. She currently teaches the “French Grammar & Verbs” course, “Jouons Ensemble,” a Parent-Child beginner’s class and assists with Southbury’s Wednesday French discussion group. She has achieved the CECR tested levels of proficiency of C1 Oral Expression and C2 Oral Comprehension. While living in MA, she created, developed the curriculum and directed AVANTAGE, a language school teaching French to both children and adults.
*Advance registration is kindly requested directly through the Gunn Memorial Library. Please send an email to Program Director, Margaret Ferguson at gunnprograms@biblio.org or call 860-868-7586 to register.
