Format details
8-week intensive with 4 recorded presentation submissions and live coaching sessions.
Level needed: Intermediate spoken French ability.
Presenting in French requires different rhetorical strategies than English presentations. French audiences expect intellectual rigor, clear logical progression, and sophisticated vocabulary.
This intensive program develops your ability to structure arguments using the French academic model, pronounce technical terms correctly, and handle questions with appropriate formality. You will record presentations, receive pronunciation coaching, and practice with live audiences.
Technical versus persuasive presentations
The curriculum distinguishes between data-heavy technical presentations and persuasive pitches. Each requires different vocabulary, pacing, and visual support strategies.
You will learn transition phrases that signal logical relationships, hedging language for uncertain projections, and emphasis techniques that avoid melodrama. We cover how to use PowerPoint slides that meet French aesthetic expectations and information density preferences.
Mock presentations simulate board meetings, client pitches, conference talks, and team briefings. Instructors provide feedback on accent reduction, filler word elimination, and gesture appropriateness in French business contexts.
