TARGET AUDIENCE

• You are a complete or false beginner of French (although students at higher levels can still benefit from practicing with flashcards and from listening to the audio clips).
• You want to be able to talk about yourself in much richer ways and with greater confidence.
• You don’t necessarily have French-speaking conversation partners readily available to start a simple Q&A talk.
• You’re looking to take your listening and speaking skills with confidence and at your own pace.

 
REQUIREMENTS

• You must have a computer and it must be connected to the internet.
• Your computer must be equipped with built-in or external speakers to be able to listen to the recorded French audio segments.
• No prior knowledge of French is required as everything will be taught.
• You must, at least, be familiar with the English and/or French alphabet, and if you were able to follow me until now, chances are I don’t have to worry about it on that point.
