This excellent book is intended for use by business travelers and those who
interact with French speakers at work. Best used start-to-finish; there are
different units dealing with work-related topics, but all following a story
line.
Could be used in a classroom setting or by a very motivated independent learner.
It assumes no prior knowledge of French. It has good supporting materials --
maps, train schedules, etc. It builds up to writing a simple sample resume and
basic business letters. This will appeal most to colleges and adult education
programs.
Working with French, New Edition is comprised of two parts: Level 1 is a beginner's course, teaching the basics of French. Students practice essential skills, such as making telephone calls, letter-writing, translating and summarizing. Level 2 (Development Level) can be used as a continuation of the course. Students are trained in areas of business including applying for jobs, dealing with quotes and preparing for a business trip. The Coursebook is suitable for use with groups, individuals with tutorial support or as core material for a supported self-study course. Chapters are graded structurally with each focusing upon a particular theme. It includes a wide range of learning activities with up-to-date and authentic materials. Recorded material is available, with transcripts provided at the end of the book, together with a glossary of grammatical terms and lists of irregular verbs and vocabulary.
