Class Details

Dans ce cours, nous allons découvrir la plume de Victor Hugo. Il a écrit son recueil de poésie, Les Contemplations, lors de son exil sur l’île anglo-normande de Guernesey. Ces œuvres magistrales, charnières et lyriques sont le reflet de toute la vie du poète mais surtout demeurent le plus bel hommage à la langue française.

Nous découvrirons ensuite Ruy Blas une pièce de théâtre où Hugo mélange la politique, la passion amoureuse et la manipulation cruelle. Il rejette les règles du théâtre classique afin du créer un chef d’œuvre du théâtre romantique.

Ce cours vous est plus particulièrement destiné si vous aimez la poésie, voulez travailler la prosodie et l’élocution en lisant à voix haute et souhaitez rédiger des écrits à la manière des auteurs avec vos mots

Prerequisites: Students should have a strong B2 level to get the most out of this class.

    Soha is the best! I love our group of students and she really knows how to teach grammar and makes it fun… I can visibly see our class improve each session.

    Everything. Above all, the teacher, the skill level of student participants, the dialogue and the instructional expertise. I wouldn’t change anything.

    How easy it is for conversational interchange among all the students. The group is small enough and not intimidating, so that everyone gets his or her chance to talk.

    level of interest – The 2 hours flew by.

    Great group and L'Alliance NY representative. I now feel like I can navigate through France and communicate most of what I need to say and hear. I could not recommend this program more!

    The opportunity to converse about interesting topics. I wouldn’t change anything.

    I enjoy the focus on getting the students actually speaking in class. Other materials are presented in the homework, so it doesn’t take away from the time in class where more active participation occurs. I wouldn’t change anything.

    I liked the interaction with my peers, the skits we have to prepare in class, the readings we have to do out loud, the compositions we have do at home, and the teacher’s sense of humor.

    What I liked most about the class is that it’s very inclusive, so nobody feels left out… Estele makes it fun and interactive.

    The emphasis on speaking helped with my confidence.

    The kinship with the other students.
