LEARNING OUTCOMES

Assuming regular attendance and independent study, you should achieve the level A2.1 of the CEFR by the end of this course.

You should be able to do the following:

• Introduce yourself and someone else
• Express a wish in everyday situations in a simple way
• Ask for and understand information
• Describe people using simple expressions
• Talk about your immediate surroundings using simple expressions
• Describe the details of your daily routine in a simple way

COURSE TYPE

The course (3 times a week, 1h40 each course, for one semester):

• is based on the work schemes drawn up on the basis of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).
• All learners are assessed and will be issued a certificate outlining their skills level.

You work primarily on oral communication and secondly on written comprehension. In class, you will communicate only in Luxembourgish and, over time, you will avoid "false friends", master verbs and gender and improve your accent. You practice the language in the classroom and actively participate in group work.
