My Objectives

Hello, my name is Arielle Simmons. I have always loved and appreciated the beauty of the French language. For me, learning a language is like solving a puzzle or cracking a code. I do hope to master the French language within the next couple of years so here are my objectives for this course. 1.) Proper Pronunciation. 2.) Holding A Conversation. I want to be able to hold at least a five minute conversation in French without stuttering or hesitating. 3.) My goal is to increase my knowledge about French culture including art history and independent films. Strengths : I really like math, so it’s easy for me to remember combinations, esp. when dealing with conjugated verbs. As a musician, I do have a semi-skilled hear which helps me to identify and repeat what I hear. I have a good memory which helps me to remember all the grammar rules and spellings Weaknesses : I need more practice with my pronunciation. There is a big gap between my last French class and now. PLAN : I plan on going to the tutoring sessions at the FLRC at least once a week. I will converse in French more often with other students I will utilize ALL resources on campus and invest in a lot of flashcards!
