During the “Culture Générale” class, students will use different tools (reportages, interviews, exposés, debates) to get informed about past and current events, exploring how the « medium » influences our perception of reality and shapes our comprehension of the world. Language skills will be studied during this class.
EFNY Book Club, will meet once a month, most probably at the end of each month, the class will be dedicated to the Book Club (Club lecture).
During this class, students will have the opportunity to read and study texts from different authors, periods and genres (short stories, novels, plays, poetry, graphic novels…). They will discover famous figures of French literature as well as contemporary authors. They will also engage in creative writing activities to develop their vocabulary, imagination and composition skills.
