The Monthly Cycle

Rendez-Vous Tutos follow this cycle:

1. Tutos recorded live on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays, at set times

2. Tutos uploaded along with downloadable PDFS into Section 1 here. Each Tuto is given a title relating to its content.

3. Freshly recorded Tutos are added 3 times a week throughout the month. So day one of the month you will see one Tuto. At the end of the month you will see 12. (24 entries inc PDFS)

4. The Tutos are then moved to the Vocabulary Library as their permanent home. They are now available for you visit and re-visit whenever you need to add to your Cahier.

5. The cycle begins again with the next word at the start of the next month.
