Cours de civilisation française de la Sorbonne

This course gave me a strong confidence to use my French language skill not only in my daily life in Paris but also in the business as a professional person. In this class, our teacher who has a lot of experience of teaching business French gave us his original materials so that we could learn and review the French grammar (level B2 or C1) everyday, get knowledge of the latest subjects of French business and get to know how to write the business correspondences (e-mails, or official letters in French). Especially, there were the students who already had their professional backgrounds from the multiple countries with various ages so that we could discuss many subjects related to the French business; the working circumstances, administration and human resources (HR), international trading, and knowledge of the French commerce including the domain of luxury, or traditional industries , start-up and logistics etc. If you are thinking to develop your French for your professional contexts at work, I would like to recommend this course!!

It was a great experience, the residence and the university was amazing. You feel like a real Parisienne. I really wanted to stay more days. I think that the program can ad more free days in order to enjoy more of Paris.

Personally, I had the most difficulty in preparing the 'Exposés' which every student have to present three time during the course. It appears simple and not fastidious for young generations which are adept at digital things(mostly power points), but very hard for me tempting me almost give up in the middle of the course. It was a point to that I couldn't deliver M. Fesquet at the last class due to lack of time. In my point of view, if he loosen these homeworks and can find alternatives that students feel more comfort, I am sure that more and more people, particularly at their 50 ties and 60 ties as myself will apply to his programme.
