About this course
French Over 70% of our staff are native speakers, teaching you in French in 'language' classes as well as most 'culture' classes. You will experience between 3 and 6 hours of French grammar and conversation every week (at post A-Level or beginners' level), in order to reach near-native precision and fluency. This will run in parallel with optional course units on French and Francophone history, politics, literature, popular culture and/or linguistics, from the Early Modern period to the present. You will benefit from our long-established partnership with the Alliance Française de Manchester with cultural events throughout the year, such as film screenings, talks, plays, concerts, exhibitions and intensive language classes. You will also benefit from our collaboration with the Institut de Touraine in the Loire Valley, which hosts Easter and Summer French language classes that are appropriate for anyone from beginners to finalists. Our range and quality of courses are regularly cited for praise by external examiners and three colleagues have won University Teaching Excellence Awards. You will be provided with a broad grounding in Russian area studies, with an emphasis on the integrated study of language, culture and society. Independent, monitored self-study will reinforce your knowledge of grammar and vocabulary. Our language courses are taught by native speakers of Russian and English speakers with a superior command of Russian and are supplemented by structured independent language learning activities. There are separate pathways for beginners and post-A level students in the first two years of study. Two colleagues have won University and Faculty Teaching Excellence Awards You will benefit from access to a range of Russian cultural and social events to further your study of the language and culture.
