The idea of the short course is that the students will then be able to join the longer <strong>Post-Beginner French</strong>, running from October through to December - hence making their learning more efficient, instead of trapping them in an Absolute Beginners Course!<br /><br />There will be however an Absolute Beginners Course, which will start in October completely from scratch, so if you have never studied French before, you can now start discovering it!<br /><br />:-)<br /><br /><br /><strong><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">::: New evening classes in September:::<br /></span></strong>4 weeks courses, for £40.00<br />STARTING : w/c 4 Sept ENDING w/e 29 Sept 2006<br /><br />:::False Beginners: Mondays: 6-7.30pm:::<br /><br />Please contact me (Lise) now to register your interest: <a href="mailto:lise@edilang.com">lise@edilang.com</a>.
