Practice Problems

EasyExplain Oral comprehension to someone who has never studied the subject, using one worked example.
Solution: A strong answer defines oral comprehension precisely, gives one concrete example, and names the limitation it runs into.
MediumExplain Applied grammar to someone who has never studied the subject, using one worked example.
Solution: A strong answer defines applied grammar precisely, gives one concrete example, and names the limitation it runs into.

Solution: A strong answer defines thematic vocabulary precisely, gives one concrete example, and names the limitation it runs into.

Glossary

Oral comprehension

About the French Immersion curriculum

The French Immersion curriculum is a complete, self-paced course in languages, organised into 3 progressive levels and 9 modules. It opens with Foundations of Oral comprehension and Core methods in Applied grammar, moves through Applying Thematic vocabulary and finishes with expert-level work on Leading practice in Francophone culture and Mastering Integrated project work.

Across the whole path you work through 27 individual topics — from Oral comprehension and Hands-on: oral comprehension at the start to Putting integrated project work to work and Common pitfalls in integrated project work by the end. The levels are estimated at 6 weeks · about 24 hours, 8 weeks · about 32 hours and 10 weeks · about 40 hours. Each level assumes the one before it, so you can work straight through from Intermediate to Expert, or start at the level that matches what you already know.

It is designed for learners who want usable fluency and clear explanation, not phrase-book memorisation. Practice is cumulative: each module adds structures you immediately reuse, with models, errors to avoid and short production tasks.

Every module pairs a written summary with a worked example, a short quiz to check the idea landed, and a project brief drawn from real practice. You are never asked to take a concept on trust: the reasoning, the common mistakes and the situations where the approach stops working are all laid out, so you finish a module able to explain the idea rather than only recognise it.

What you’ll be able to do

By the end of the French Immersion path you should be able to work confidently with:

Oral comprehension

Hands-on: oral comprehension

Common pitfalls in oral comprehension

Applied grammar

Thematic vocabulary

How the French Immersion curriculum is structured

Intermediate 6 weeks · about 24 hours 3 modules 9 topics

Intermediate French Immersion

Start with Oral comprehension, Applied grammar and Thematic vocabulary. Each module explains the idea, shows a worked example and ends with a short project, so French Immersion becomes something you can do rather than something you have only read about.

Modules: Foundations of Oral comprehension · Core methods in Applied grammar · Applying Thematic vocabulary

  • Oral comprehension: Oral comprehension is introduced from first principles, with the few terms you actually need and an example that shows how the idea behaves in practice.
  • Hands-on: oral comprehension: Oral comprehension is where many French Immersion learners first get stuck, so the module slows down, isolates the difficult step and rebuilds it with you.
  • Common pitfalls in oral comprehension: Oral comprehension is introduced from first principles, with the few terms you actually need and an example that shows how the idea behaves in practice.

Project: Write a one-page explanation of Oral comprehension in your own words, with an example you chose yourself, and test it against the module checklist.

Advanced 8 weeks · about 32 hours 3 modules 9 topics

Advanced French Immersion

Build on the intermediate level through Written production, Guided reading and Oral interaction. The emphasis shifts from knowing the ideas to choosing between them — trade-offs, failure modes and the reasoning behind each decision.

Modules: In depth Written production · Patterns and trade-offs in Guided reading · Scaling Oral interaction

  • Written production: The module examines Written production closely, including the assumptions beneath it and what changes when those assumptions stop holding.
  • Putting written production to work: Here Written production becomes a design decision. You compare alternatives, justify a choice and test it against a harder problem.
  • Checking your understanding of written production: The module examines Written production closely, including the assumptions beneath it and what changes when those assumptions stop holding.

Project: Produce a short case analysis in which Written production drives the recommendation, including the alternatives you rejected and why.

Expert 10 weeks · about 40 hours 3 modules 9 topics

Expert French Immersion

Work at the edge of French Immersion through Advanced structures, Francophone culture and Integrated project work. The modules assume fluency and ask for judgement: designing, critiquing and defending work at a professional standard.

Modules: Frontiers of Advanced structures · Leading practice in Francophone culture · Mastering Integrated project work

  • Advanced structures: At expert level Advanced structures is treated as a field of judgement: current practice, contested positions and the evidence behind each.
  • Putting advanced structures to work: Advanced structures is examined at the frontier, with an emphasis on open problems, rigorous argument and decisions you can defend.
  • Common pitfalls in advanced structures: At expert level Advanced structures is treated as a field of judgement: current practice, contested positions and the evidence behind each.

Project: Write a professional-standard brief on Advanced structures — argument, evidence, limitations — plus a plan for taking the work further.

How to study French Immersion, phase by phase

  1. 1

    Phase 1 — Intermediate

    Set aside around 6 weeks · about 24 hours. Work through 3 modules, starting with Foundations of Oral comprehension and Core methods in Applied grammar. Finish the phase by completing the project brief: Write a one-page explanation of Oral comprehension in your own words, with an example you chose yourself, and test it against the module checklist.

  2. 2

    Phase 2 — Advanced

    Set aside around 8 weeks · about 32 hours. Work through 3 modules, starting with In depth Written production and Patterns and trade-offs in Guided reading. Finish the phase by completing the project brief: Produce a short case analysis in which Written production drives the recommendation, including the alternatives you rejected and why.

  3. 3

    Phase 3 — Expert

    Set aside around 10 weeks · about 40 hours. Work through 3 modules, starting with Frontiers of Advanced structures and Leading practice in Francophone culture. Finish the phase by completing the project brief: Write a professional-standard brief on Advanced structures — argument, evidence, limitations — plus a plan for taking the work further.

  4. 4

    Phase 4 — Consolidate

    Return to the sections that felt weakest, redo their quizzes from memory, and rebuild the Write a one-page explanation of Oral comprehension in your own words, with an example you chose yourself, and test it against the module checklist. without following along. Explaining French Immersion to someone else in plain language is the clearest signal that the Expert level has landed.

Once you have finished, the French Immersion path is a reasonable foundation for translation, teaching, writing and communication roles. Because the curriculum is generated and kept as a structured outline rather than fixed videos, you can revisit any module, regenerate the outline at a different depth, or save it to your library and work through it over weeks rather than in one sitting.
