A Vos Marques! is an introductory course for students taking French as an option alongside their main degree course. It has been developed specifically for students who have a slight acquaintance with the language. The course comprises a student's book, teacher's book and three 60-minute audio cassettes and, through 15 chapters, follows the progress of an English-speaking student studying in Paris, whose achievements are designed to reflect those of the course user. Special features include:

* activities involving pair and group work

* an aid to self-assessment at the end of each chapter

* hints on vocabulary learning

* clear and accessible layout including integrated cartoons.

The guidance offered by the teachers' book is particular useful for devising the course syllabus and lesson plans.
