Are you puzzling over prepositions? Confused by conjugation? If your grammatical knowledge needs a little refresh, then this course is for you!

Many native speakers of English find learning a second language difficult because they may not have been taught the rules of English grammar. If the grammatical terminology that comes with learning a new language seems overwhelming, don't be alarmed, we're here to help. 
 
This one-day grammar clinic is taught entirely in English and is designed to give students a ‘language toolkit’ that will make it much easier to study French (or another foreign language). Students will be taught fundamental grammatical terms, such as: adverb, conjugation, direct object, past participle etc, and will be given examples and exercises to ensure their understanding. The teacher will assume no prior grammatical knowledge, so students will be encouraged to ask questions – no matter how basic they may seem!

No books required, all material will be provided.
