Academic French Level 2 (Intermediate) is the second stage of the Lola Languages Institute Academic French Program. Designed for learners who have completed Academic French Level 1 (Foundation) or possess an equivalent level of French proficiency, this course strengthens the linguistic and academic skills required for success in French-speaking higher education environments. Over sixteen weeks, learners expand their vocabulary, refine grammatical accuracy, and develop greater confidence in listening, speaking, reading, and writing. The course places increasing emphasis on academic communication, enabling students to interpret authentic texts, participate in structured discussions, produce well-organized written responses, and express ideas with greater precision and fluency. Students are introduced to more complex grammatical structures and discipline-specific vocabulary while continuing to develop essential academic skills such as summarizing information, note-taking, critical reading, and presenting ideas in formal contexts. Through practical activities, collaborative tasks, and continuous assessment, learners build the confidence needed to communicate effectively in university settings and prepare for more advanced academic study. Successful completion of this course qualifies learners for progression to Academic French Level 3 (Upper Intermediate).
