On Monday 27 July, 57 French teachers from across Victoria gathered at the Savoy Hotel Melbourne for the AFTV professional learning workshop, From Classroom to Exam: Empowering Students for the French VCE Examination, presented by Karine Coste and Xavier Reuter.
Throughout the day, participants explored practical, evidence-based strategies to prepare students for both the oral and written components of the VCE French examination, with a strong focus on classroom-ready resources and explicit exam preparation. The highly interactive sessions encouraged discussion, collaboration and the sharing of ideas, creating a positive and supportive professional learning environment.
Feedback was overwhelmingly positive:
