FRENCH… WHAT A FUNNY IDEA!

A MEETING BETWEEN THE FRENCH LANGUAGE AND A DYSLEXIC

Valentin Mathé, aged 40, who scored zero in dictation at school, is dyslexic, an author and publisher, and is here to talk about reading and the French language in a relaxed way! During this session, we’ll be discussing letters that get mixed up, words we can’t seem to read, rules that complicate everything… and the French language, which isn’t always very logical. We’ll learn that an H isn’t all that different from an A, and that it’s not always easy to tell the difference between a b and a d, or even that French doesn’t exist!

A chance to chat freely about dyslexia and reading difficulties. It’s also an opportunity to test your reading skills with some tricky texts.
