Savoir-Faire meaning know-how or skill, is a wide-ranging language course for undergraduate learners of French.
It focuses on communication skills in areas that graduates will need if they are to use their knowledge of French professionally, focusing particularly on:
* report writing
* translating and interpreting
* making presentations.
Savoir-Faire comprises a course book, teacher's book and three 60-minute audio cassettes. Each of the ten chapters deals with a distinct topic and set of skills and is built around the audio recordings and written texts, all taken from authentic sources.
Although designed with first-year students in mind, with its emphasis on transferable skills, Savoir-Faire could be successfully adapted for use with second and final-year students.
