Book Description

The sixth edition of Rendez-vous offers a complete beginning college-level French program, as it leads students to explore the richness of the French language and Francophone cultures. Our aim has been to retain key features that were praised in our previous editions, while introducing a fully integrated and revised multimedia package. The overall goal of this new edition remains as always to provide students with the basic tools of vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation, along with abundant and varied opportunities for practicing French in communicative and interactive contexts. Emphasizing French within a cultural context and as it is spoken in authentic, everyday situations, Rendez-vous strives to develop proficiency in the four skills of listening, speaking, reading, and writing, while introducing students to the richness and diversity of the French-speaking world.
