Welcome to your Wolsey Hall IGCSE French Course
This Sample shows One module from the full course and is designed to give you a flavour of the Wolsey Hall approach to home study.
STUDYING FRENCH
More than 220 million people across the world speak French. French is the second most widely learned foreign language after English, and the sixth most widely spoken language in the world.
French is also the only language, alongside English, that is taught in every country in the world.
This Cambridge IGCSE course is designed for students who are learning French as a foreign language. The aim of the course is to develop an ability to use the French language effectively for practical communication. The course is based on the linked language skills of listening, reading, speaking and writing, and these are built on as you progress through your studies.
The course also aims to offer insights into the culture of countries where French is spoken, thus encouraging positive attitudes towards language learning and towards speakers of other languages.
STUDYING WITH WOLSEY HALL
Course Structure
Each of our Wolsey Hall courses is written around a specialised coursebook which has been chosen by our tutor team as the best available text for each syllabus. You will be guided through this book by working through a series of online modules. These course modules have been developed by a subject specialist and include guidance linked to the coursebook and extensive online resources. At the end of each module, there is an interactive quiz which enables you to assess how much of the syllabus you have understood so far. Once you are happy that you have achieved all the learning objectives for that module, you will begin work on the module assignment. The assignments are submitted online and marked by your Course Tutor. Each assignment is assessed by your tutor and returned with a grade and detailed feedback.
As part of the course you will also complete six Speaking Preps which occur after every three modules, with the final two acting as revision as part of the Exam Prep Module. In these Speaking Preps you will complete a quiz to review the topics of the previous three modules and then arrange a video call with your Course Tutor to conduct your speaking assessment.
In summary, then, this CAIE French course consists of thirteen modules plus six Speaking Preps and concludes with our Exam Prep Module and Mock Examination service.
Course Support
When you enrol with Wolsey Hall you will be appointed a Student Progress Manager who is your key point of contact with the College. They will support you throughout your course and help you keep to your assignment schedule. You will begin your course with an online chat with your Course Tutor which will give you an opportunity to discuss the course in more detail and ask any questions you may have. From then on, you will be able to message your Course Tutor via the Canvas Messaging System at any time if you require guidance.
We will support you at every stage in your studies. To help you get the most out of your course, we have produced a comprehensive Course Guide. We strongly encourage you to read through this Course Guide before you begin your studies.
