Cafe Conversations
2018-11-03 10:30 - 12:30, 2018-11-17 10:30 - 12:30 (America/New_York) | AF Center, One Pomperaug Office Park, Suite 301, Southbury, CT, 06488, United States
Café Conversations is a great way to practice, improve and/or help you feel more comfortable speaking French with friendly francophones and francophiles who enjoy speaking French in an informal setting. The group meets two Saturdays a month from 10:30 to 12:30 (be sure to check this calendar often). Have a cup of coffee and meet/greet fellow members for the first half hour or so with some small talk – en français (It’s all about practicing!) and then prepare to tackle the subject of the day.
An article in French (often with a side-by-side English translation) is read out loud en français by the participants to practice proper pronounciation and to check understanding of the French vocabulary and grammar. The article will then be used to spark the conversation.
All levels of French are welcome. AFNWCT members attend free and a $5 suggested donation is kindly requested from all others.
Those with a question, or if you wish to propose a certain topic or lead one of the discussions should contact Brigitte: cafe@afnwct.org
This group meets at the AF Center located at 1 Pomperaug Office Park, Suite 301 in Southbury. See map below.

Parlons Francais
2018-11-08 18:30 - 20:30 | Brookfield Library, 182 Whisconier Rd., Brookfield, CT, 06804, United States
The Thursday evening Parlons Francais Back to Basics meets at the Brookfield Library.
Designed for those who have studied French in the past and just want a refresher.
Led by Colin Harrison, students use the textbook “Ultimate French: Beginner/Intermediate”.
We will meet every week, instead of every other week. However, as before the schedule is liable to change when I need to be away on travel. We will cover one Leçon of the book (Ultimate Beginner French Textbook) each week. We will use the freed-up time for practicing reading French, notably beginning with Asterix Le Gaulois, and probably one current article from the French Press.

We meet in one of the corners upstairs in the Main Library area.
Please register for this event through the Brookfield Library website.pa
