It has given me an opportunity to interact with the language in different contexts, and really make myself familiar and get involved with all the opportunities available through the Department of European Languages and Cultures. It has been a wonderful experience to liaise with students and staff.Megan Jones, Third year French and Linguistics MA (Hons) studentRelated linksRead student Megan Jones' blog post about DELC Creative projects on the Teaching Matters website This article was published on 2024-08-13
