Help!! - Giving French grinds for the first time

GretchenWieners · 2007-09-23 17:51:28

I've been asked to give grinds to a student doing his Junior Cert this year seeing as I am studying French in college. I am hoping to become a French teacher myself but I really would like to know how to approach this, seeing as it's my 1st time giving them.

Try to find out the curriculum, what they are weak at and keep it simple. Not a teacher myself but I imagine that would be a good start

Thanks. Much appreciated! Yes i intend to work off the papers but I am just curious where to start, etc. I am thinking of just giving grammar, vocab to do as well as work from the papers so it'll be 2nd nature by the time June comes around. May as well do an aural exercise a week too?
