Description: 

Global expansion in the travel, communication and commerce industries has created a modern Australia closely connected with people of other countries, cultures and communities. Languages assist with communication skills, inter-cultural understanding, cognitive and intellectual development, literacy and general knowledge. In the Australian context, the ability to speak different languages is a national resource that aids more effective communication within the wider community. Studying French Beginners allows students to develop their communication skills and understanding of the systems of the language. Through developing the skills of speaking, listening, reading and writing, students are supported to engage with the language and culture of French speaking communities, both within Australia and overseas.
