This group has a lot of fun sipping wine, tasting French delicacies, and taking turns reading out loud in French. Enjoy hearing and sharing the richness of the French language.
We are now reading:
Mon Ami Maigret, de Georges Simenon
The story takes place on the island of Porquerolles, off the coast of Hyeres on the French Riviera, new surroundings for Maigret and his British counterpart, M. Pike.

Colin Harrison leads the Parlons Francais group, which reads articles from the French newspapers of the day. The class is small, giving everyone opportunities to practice speaking and to ask questions. Those with some existing ability will find much to learn, but we invite complete novices to join our new course.
Students use the textbook “Ultimate French – Beginner-Intermediate”.
This class meets in one of the corners upstairs in the Main Library area.

Cafe Conversation 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.
Enjoy coffee and pastries, meet and chat with fellow members for the first half hour or so–en francais (it’s all about practicing!) and then tackle the subject of the day.
An article in French (often with a side-by-side English translation) is read out loud en francais by the participants to practice proper pronounciation and to check understanding of the vocabulary and grammar. The article will then be used to spark the conversation.
