FRENCH
Beginner and elementary levels
These classes are intended for people who know little or no French, but who have a standard knowledge of our alphabet.
Living in Belgium becomes much easier when you acquire some basic language skills. Soon you’ll be able to:
- introduce yourself: your name, your family, your tastes, your choices
- rent, buy, sell a car, a bicycle, a house
- situate yourself: asks and give directions, talk about the weather, ask for the time
- ask for information at the municipality offices, the unemployment office, the CPAS
- make appointments and phone calls
- understand and write a letter, a document
