Hopefully you have completed Fun French Courses 1 & 2 that cover how to use one of the past tenses with regular and the most common irregular French verbs. In this course we will look at what I call the VIP French verbs because they think they're a bit special. They use a different auxiliary verb to all the other verbs - don't worry if you're not familiar with these terms - all is revealed in understandable ways. If you want to stand a chance of speaking French at even a basic conversational level you need to know how to employ these VIPverbs.
The course is purposely taught in an informal way to help you to relax. It's difficult to learn if you're under too much pressure. I use humour (that's how we spell 'humour' in England), daft associations, pictures and plenty of repetition to make the information memorable. Also included are songs and a poem which are powerful techniques to learn languages - which is why we use them to teach our children their native language(s).
The biggest obstacle to learning a language is mindset. If you believe you can despite the difficulty you will have more success. You came to this earth speaking no languages. Within a few years you were pretty fluent in at least one language. You can learn another language even if it takes longer and even if you're never as fluent. If you can be content with getting your message across - even if it is littered with mistakes - you will enjoy learning French a whole lot more. This also means that you are far more likely to actually give speaking to French people a go.
Review
'I have learnt more French in 5 months with Cecile than I ever did in 5 years at school. Her lessons are fun with a practical content, well supported by videos and printed material. Perfect if you want to speak French, rather than just being able to order coffee!'
Andrew Marshall
One of the complaints I often hear is that people just want to be able to string a sentence together. I give you the tools to be able to do this in French in a fun and informal way.
Really hope to see you on the inside!
Your passionate French teacher,
