Immerse yourself in the French-speaking world
When you immerse yourself in the French-speaking world, you become engaged in the language. Francophone culture not only draws you in with its richness and vibrancy; it’s also the best vehicle for mastering the language.
That’s why Siskin, Field, and Storme’s Fourth Edition of Ouvertures uses culture as an organizing principle. Ouvertures integrates culture into the teaching of all five skills—speaking, grammar, listening, reading, and writing. These skills provide the basis for exploring the cultures of the francophone world.
