Un cours dans lequel l'expression orale en langue française est centrale. Un soutien grammatical est apporté si nécessaire, mais l'accent est mis sur la pratique orale. Pour suivre un cours de conversation, il faut avoir un niveau d'expression minimal en français.

Sur la base de documents authentiques, de fragments de textes, d'extraits audio et vidéo, vous travaillez à l'enrichissement du vocabulaire et à l'amélioration de l'expression orale. Une place est également laissée à l'apport des étudiants eux-mêmes. Les enseignant.e.s identifient les centres d'intérêt des participant.e.s et préparent les cours en conséquence.
