The lessons are slick yet comfortable, emersion oriented but best of all they are free.
It's very well put together. It challenges the viewer to just jump in which is great.
Because as an Anglophone, I have to be honest. I don't know what's worse; not knowing French at all or knowing just enough.
When you get to the point where you can recognise a few words and phrases, the French native speaker can sound like a burnt marshmallow machine gun going off.
Every word you actually understand is followed by a barrage of mushy vowels accented by shards of crusty consonants.
Then try to marry all that to the actual written word and you are in for a real challenge to 'vivre heureux pour toujours.'
So my recommendation with the following video is to play it without looking at the screen; sound only. Then play it again while looking at the screen.
Do that 3 times and if you've understood what you've heard by the third time, I 'd say 'Bravo'!!
That's 18 minutes well spent.
