The French VCE Program

The best way to think of the French VCE program is a ‘Duolinguo’ designed with the French VCE curriculum in mind.

​

You download an app named ‘Quizizz’ on your phone and you create a free student account. I will add you to a class and every day – from Monday to Friday – a new quiz pops up.

How does it work?

You download the app Quizizz on your phone and you create a free student account. You will then receive a code to join the BonjourATAR class.

​

Starting from Monday, you will start receiving a new quiz each day of the week (from Monday-Friday). You have until the end of the fortnight to complete all the quizzes before they disappear. Each quiz should take 5-7 minutes and can be attempted twice.

​

By the end of the fortnight, you will have reviewed a range of vocabulary and sentences that you can directly use in your writing, reading, listening and speaking tests.​

​

What does it look like?

Each fortnight, we look at a new topic that is part of the VCE curriculum.

For example, the first topic is L’amitié. Every day from Monday to Friday, you receive a new quiz that reviews vocabulary, grammar and sentences that relate to the topic of L’amitié. â€‹

​

What level is it for?

Currently, there is only one level on offer: Level 1. It is made for VCE students with an intermediate level. 

​

In Level 1, we start with intermediate vocabulary and a beginner level of grammar and sentence structures. We gradually move to a more advanced level. 

​

To give you a better idea, here are some grammatical concepts you can expect to work on in the first few weeks of Level 1:

  • Simple sentence structures with pronouns, adjectives and adverbs in affirmative and negative sentences. We establish the correct word order in French sentences.

  • All categories of verbs (regular and irregular as well as reflexives). In the first few weeks, we mainly use them in the present tense, passé composé and future proche.

  • Correct use of prepositions with countries, places, verbs, etc.

  • Use of direct and indirect pronouns (le, la, lui, leur…) as well as French stressed pronouns (moi, toi, lui…)

​​

If these are things you want to refresh and reinforce so that it becomes easy and automatic for you, Level 1 is a good fit. If this seems too easy and you are curious about what’s coming for Level 2 (intermediate-advanced), leave your email below so that you can be the first one to know when Level 2 is coming out.

​

I am in Year 10 and I have never learned French before. Can I sign up to Level 1?

If you've never done any French before, I would suggest that you wait at least few months before starting the program. It’s important that you already have strong foundations before jumping in.

​

If you’re highly motivated and can work independently, then I encourage you to sign up after a few months of practice.

Feel free to contact me if you wish to discuss this further.

Level 1 next starting date: 24th March
