Contacts: Langue et culture francaises

by Jean-Paul Valette, Rebecca Valette

Both students and instructors find this popular introductory text easy to use. The grammar lessons are presented in a logical sequence with constant vocabulary reinforcement and practice of the four skills--listening, reading, writing, and speaking. In addition, Contacts meets the five "Cs" of the national standards for foreign languages--culture, connections, comparison, communities, and communication--which are denoted by icons when they appear in the text.

Excellent,this was my French language introductory course.I enjoyed working through it. Sadly,my French is rusty again,didn't get much of a chance to practice it.

This was the textbook for my French class this semester... Overall, it was pretty good. It was just frustrating that things were so spread out in it! I had to flip and flip pages to find what I wanted.
