Abstract

The formal teaching of French in Indonesia has not been widely spread. For the context of Indonesia, specifically in West Java province, French is only studied in 3 universities and several high schools spread across several cities / districts. However, until now, there has not been a formal education institution that provides French language teaching in the Pangandaran Regency, where in fact, this region is an important tourism destination for West Java which is visited by many French tourists in 2019. Therefore, authors are motivated to conduct a community service by providing French language tourism training for tour guides in Pangandaran Regency. This study aims to investigate the design and development of a tourism French language training module for tour guides. The method used in this research is the Design and Development approach (Ellis & Levy, 2010) which has 6 phases, namely problem identification, description of objectives, design and development, testing, evaluation, and communicate. However, this paper will only discuss up until the third phase, design and development phase. The findings showed that the training module could be designed and developed for basic level French language training with a focus on speaking. The training materials are offered in 5 themes with 5 different objectives that are fundamental for tour guides. This research is expected to contribute to the development of French language teaching for specific purposes, especially for tour guides.
