Alliance Française de Sacramento members and students are invited to a weekly group on Thursdays from 6-7pm (Intermediate level) or 7:15-8:15pm (Beginner level) hosted by David Hutchinson, AF Sacramento Library Volunteer Coordinator.

Participants will practice reading out loud, listening, and perhaps conversing en Français! The goal is to have fun and comfortably grow participants’ skills. Participation is flexible: you can simply listen or try a short reading out loud.

Le Cercle du Lecteur will pick interesting books with easy vocabulary so everyone can follow along. Vocabulary and grammar will be reviewed as well as reading (in English if necessary) so nobody gets lost.

Depending on the group, discussion in French may be incorporated. Then see where it goes. Every skill can grow with practice, especially among friends!

To participate:
RSVP your name + level to info@afsacramento.org 
Your login information to access the virtual ‘du Lecteur group will be emailed to you.

The Alliance Française book group meets every two months via Zoom for two hours to discuss a book that the group has chosen. Group members must be current Alliance Française members or students at B1 level or higher.

The goal of the group is to engage in extensive reading and discussion in French to help increase fluency and vocabulary while becoming familiar with contemporary novels in French. If the book is long we may extend the conversation over more than one meeting.

All discussion in book group meetings is in French! We start each meeting with a brief review and summary, then continue to plot, character, leitmotivs; then delve into deeper points. Come join us, and expand your literary and linguistic horizons!
