Forms of work
At the Evening School, we use varied teaching methods to maximize goal achievement and to create variety, motivation and engaged participants. We place particular emphasis on oral communication in everyday situations. In particular, the exercises will be based on typical situations that you may encounter when traveling, such as ordering at a restaurant, buying goods, asking for directions, etc.
This is how teaching is organized:
- Reading, practicing pronunciation/sounds
- Blackboard teaching, basic language structure
- Practical exercises, games, role play, etc.
- Individual work e.g. homework
Textbooks
The choice of textbook in Kristiansand is agreed with the teacher at start-up.
In Stavanger, we use the textbook "Contact ", i.e. the same book that was used in French 1 for those of you who have taken it with us. The book can be purchased at Norli bookstore in Stavanger/Sandnes or online at Norli.no or at Adlibris.no.
The textbook must be purchased by the participant and is not included in the course fee.

A website called Parlons francais c'est facile! has lots of educational and fun exercises for all language levels.

Language certificate
You will receive a course certificate with a minimum of 75% attendance.
Once you've reached language level A2, you can take an exam called DELF/DALF and obtain an internationally recognized language certificate. This is valid in 130 countries - it also gives you access to higher education in a French-speaking country, depending on your language level.
Such a test/exam can also help to increase motivation in language learning.
