That's pretty intense. Who are you taking classes with, and how long will they last ? |

I work at an institution that offers intensive courses. I am on an intensive course for three weeks.
I have done 3 days of 8:30-12:45 classes, and yesterday I did 40 minutes scriptorum for Assimil

I finished 50 hours of French intensive classes, and successfully passed level 4 French (my employer lists all the way up to level 8). I felt pleased to have reached level 5.
I also completed Assimil French, and today, did 40 minutes, encompassing the first two lessons of Advanced French for Assimil. I was very comfortable with most of the material, but had some slight problems
* the new words "desormais" and "plaisantez" threw me a little
* I have always struggled with the word "resultats", dont know why
* heard "ses" as "ces" and "elle s'est demandée" as "elle se demander".
* slight errors with s at end of plurals and y particle, especially with prenniez
