Mulenda, Mubalama
Educational Research and Reviews, v8 n20 p1900-1906 Oct 2013
The study of French for Specific Purposes (FSP) is a topical subject in this era of globalization. Kenya requires people who can communicate in French in the various specialized areas. It has become crucial in Kenya to respond to the French language needs of students learning tourism and hospitality among other domains which have already shown an increasingly important role in the economy of the country. A functional French has become a necessity in this case.
