| Field of Study: | French as a Second Language
|
| Description: | Many students enroll in the French Immersion Program in order to gain the proficiency required to enter Université Sainte-Anne’s degree programs. Others come to the immersion program after having earned a degree from another university, seeking to improve their chances of employment. Still others are seeking to acquire the second language skills needed for acceptance into the RCMP, the public service, the tourism sector, the airline industry, etc. Some immersion students are public sector employees who need to upgrade their language skills in order to advance in their field. Others are high school graduates who haven’t yet chosen a field of study and who wish to learn French in the interim, knowing it will be an asset in whatever field they choose later. Mature students are very welcome, whether their objective is work-related or for personal enrichment. In fact, everyone is welcome in our program, whatever their reason for wanting to learn French may be. Classes are kept small in order to promote oral interaction. Typical class size is between 8 and 12 students. |
