Course Description
Summer Intensive Elementary French is an online eight-week course designed for students with no prior French to develop intermediate proficiency in reading, writing, speaking, and listening for use in everyday communication. Students will acquire an in-depth review of the very basic patterns of the language.
Students with prior French must take the placement exam well before class starts. Please contact rpetrush@uchicago.edu to arrange placement testing.
All students enrolled in FREN 10123 will participate in an online four-skills proficiency assessment as the final exam for the course. Students will receive a University of Chicago certificate describing their language skills in reading, writing, speaking, and listening, based on the results of this assessment.
This course includes a break between morning and afternoon sessions. Students are expected to schedule and attend several short conversations on an online platform outside of class hours. Online cultural activities may be offered as part of the course program. Additional details will be provided once class starts.
Course Criteria
Summer Intensive Elementary French is the equivalent of the FREN 10100-10200-10300 sequence offered during the regular UChicago academic year. Successful completion of the course will fulfill the College’s language competency requirement for UChicago students.
This course is primarily comprised of undergraduate students. A select number of places are reserved for advanced high school students.
The cost of this course for pre-college students is $8,225
