The
Key Sentences
The key sentences summarise
the essential points of each lesson in the form of sentences
that can be transposed into other contexts. They are recorded
on a CD that the student can take away at the end of the
stay.

Phonetic
Correction
The verbo-tonal method for
phonetic correction (developed by the University of Mons-Hainaut
in Belgium) helps to improve the perception of sounds and
thus the comprehension of a message, and helps correct intonation,
rhythm, stress and sound production.
