The Student and Tutor reviewed previously learned French class phrases and then introduced new vocabulary for days of the week, months, and numbers from 0 to 20. They also covered foundational French grammar, including the use of definite and indefinite articles, and the conjugation of the verb 'avoir' (to have). The Tutor agreed to create additional worksheets for common words and the Student was encouraged to practice the 'avoir' verb.

The Student and Tutor revised common French greetings, essential classroom phrases, and key verbs, while also introducing the grammatical concept of noun gender. They practiced these concepts through interactive activities, including sentence completion and dialogue exercises. The session concluded with an introduction to the days of the week, with a recommendation for the Student to use songs for memorization.

The Student and Tutor reviewed French accents and their pronunciation, practiced basic greetings, introductions, and farewells, and explored essential classroom phrases. They also discussed grammatical concepts such as formal/informal address and gender agreement for adjectives. The Student was advised to practice the covered slides, and the next session will focus on smaller words and basic French verbs.

The Student and Tutor reviewed basic French greetings and the alphabet, focusing on challenging pronunciations like the 'R' and 'U' sounds. They then delved into French accents, learning the five main types (aigu, grave, circonflexe, cédille, tréma) and practicing their identification through a word activity. The session also covered conversational phrases for asking and answering "how are you," and introduced the concept of negation. For homework, the Student was advised to practice spelling English words in French and utilize language learning apps.
