Overview:
Level 3 is ideal for students in their 3rd or 4th year of French. It is a text that highlights all the key grammar found on AP, SAT II, IB, or college placement tests.
- Continuing the strategies established in the first two books in the series, the Advanced Level begins by reviewing the major present, past, conditional and future tenses.
- Cultural articles with comprehension exercises help students get to know stories from people around the world. You will also find the following grammatical concepts:
- all perfect tenses, including the present perfect, pluperfect, future perfect and conditional perfect
- the subjunctive mood (with commands, verbs of emotion, hypothetical situations, adverbial phrases)
- comparatives, the passive voice, “if clauses,” punctuation, and uses of the infinitive
- intriguing vocabulary, with special focus on adjectives in early chapters, followed by nouns, verbs, and idiomatic expressions
The Advanced book makes certain that every student – whether formally enrolled in school or studying independently – has all the rules he or she will ever need to know about the French language. It fully equips students for a lifetime of authentic contact with the Francophone world.

Why Breaking the Barrier?
Breaking the Barrier has offered language curriculum since 1997 — the books are written by experienced classroom teachers with a time-tested methodology.
Unlike programs focused on vocabulary memorization, students practice the target language across all four skills — reading, writing, listening, and speaking — through a combination of a structured print textbook and a rich Online Access component with audio, video, interactive exercises, and cultural content from the Spanish and French speaking worlds.
This is a full-year, structured course designed for students seeking elective credit.
Do I need to speak French/Spanish as the parent/teacher?
No. The program is fully self-directed — students follow the online activities independently and receive instant, targeted feedback without any teacher input. Parents can assist by offering encouragement and grading the chapter tests using the provided rubric.
What do I need for a second student?
Each additional student needs one extra Student Edition book with Online Access. The Answer Key, Test Program, Vocabulary Quizzes, and Pacing Guide included in the Homeschool Package can be reused across multiple students.
Can I renew Online Access?
Yes. Online Access is valid for 12 months from the date of activation (not purchase). Before your subscription ends, you can renew for an additional full year for $40.
