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.
Every week, 3 streamed sessions — short, focused and designed to keep your French moving.
Lundi à 17h45
Mardi à 16h00
Mercredi à 17h45
You can join any or all.
Every Rendez-Vous Tuto is recorded and added here soon after the live stream, so you can watch on-demand across the month.
At the end of the month these Rendez-Vous Tutos find their permanent home in the Vocabulary Library where you can visit and re-visit them as you wish.
