#1 GOOD NEWS: LEARNING FRENCH IS EASY! EVERY FRENCH BEGINNER WILL BE HAPPY TO KNOW THAT.
This post is all about Learning French is easy
Learning French is easy and sometimes it’s not so obvious. But I am sure every student of French has looked for ways to make it easier for them. I found ways for myself to learn English.
You are going to find out why learning French is easy when you do it following this next piece of advice.
This post should convince the most skeptical student of French that learning French is easy. So let’s repeat it.

1. You know 1/3 of French words already
If the French Whisperer program is extremely good at raising your confidence that one day you will speak French like me, I still like to recommend my competition when they help the French beginner the same way.
You want to learn French and you want to learn French fast. And you don’t need to rush. I always look for solutions myself and I have found Michel Thomas the most fun to follow. His accent is poor and he is old fashion formal French-speaking but he will raise your confidence and you can quickly start another program after him.
Of course, there is always memorization involved but it can be minimized. You will discover that if you know English, you know 1/3 of the French words already. What can slow you down is the misunderstanding of the French sounds. For that, you need French Whisperer absolutely.
2. Learn through imitation
This is tricky because you can imitate something over and over and discover later that it’s not correct. Check the series “The Crown, season 3, episode 6”. Prince Charles’s Welsh teacher tells him: “Learn through imitation. Like everything in life, if we repeat something long enough, we might become it”.
3. Don’t use a studio recording
To make sure the French language you use is correct, use impromptu dialogs, not the one that has been recorded in a studio.
4. Choose a simple exercise to use over and over that will make you progress no matter what.
I noticed that when I read something that I can’t translate, it’s very painful. In order to still learn French using a dialogue that I don’t understand, the good idea is to use it not to understand it but to make an exercise out of it. It could be an exercise that is not worth it like counting the number of words. Or it could a useful exercise that you can find on frenchwhisperer.com if you come to my free workshop.
5. Delay French grammar.
I know that some of the French learners will like that. French grammar is the most difficult part of learning French. It’s frustrating and boring. But we can learn French without studying grammar. No French native has ever learned French grammar before they were able to speak French.
I BELIEVE THAT IN ORDER TO LEARN BETTER, COMFORT AND SELF-CONFIDENCE ARE ESSENTIAL, THAT IS WHY IN ALL MY COURSES I SHOW YOU THESE LETTERS THAT BOTHER YOU FROM BEING THERE WHILE THEY ARE NOT PRONOUNCED. THAT IS ALSO WHY I SIMPLY ASK YOU TO IMITATE ME OVER AND OVER USING A LANGUAGE THAT IS CONTRACTED SO THAT YOU WILL FEEL EMPOWERED WHEN THE TIME COMES FOR YOU TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE FRENCH.
6. What you need is the French conjugation made simple.
If you choose to work with French Whisperer you will see how much the French conjugation is easier to learn than the Spanish one.
7. Don’t rush.
When you have learned the sounds and an easy technique to read correctly the way French people speak in their context, all you have to do is repeat the process over and over.
This session was all about learning French is easy, hoping it can help you choose the easiest and fastest way for you to speak French.

7 LIFE-CHANGING TIPS TO LEARN FRENCH FAST EVERY STUDENT OF FRENCH SHOULD KNOW

Is time important for you?
….If you typed ‘learn French fast, you are probably not a student. Students know that it will request time. You are caught and you need to learn fast because you have been hired by a French company or you have planned a trip to France. Will you experience the best if you don’t know anything about the language? Because you might be questioning your ability to speak french, realizing it will be much more fun if you can speak French a bit before you go. Most of the apps you can find on your phone will probably be useless when you land there. They just make you feel good before you take off, and that’s it. Well, if you are leaving in two weeks, it’s a little late, but it’s not without a solution…
What is your goal?
…. The important question to ask yourself is: What am I learning French for? If I answer that question, I will be able to decide how I want to learn it. Most people will join a class. We are all consumers and we don’t really question enough. We enroll in a course online without further questioning. That’s where we lose a lot of time. Because most of the known programs will not help you speak and also understand and be understood. Why? Because most of them have not been created by the French. And even If the creators were actually French, they might have been intellectuals whose interest or focus is mainly to write. But you want to speak French.
The French are not the only ones who know the French language but they are the only ones who have been speaking it since birth…
If you are still asking: is learning French easy or is learning French hard? I hope you are now convinced it is easy.

9 INCREDIBLY USEFUL TIPS TO A FRENCH CONJUGATION PRACTICE EVERY FRENCH BEGINNER SHOULD KNOW

We chose to be selective
….To master the French conjugation online, I propose that you start with the easy part, but not only the easy part. You want to practice the verbs that are most used. Actually, they are the same in all languages. So which verbs, like French verbs, are the most used?
We are going to repeat them over and over. if you have followed me through these live events, you might remember I mentioned several times the quote in ‘the Crown’ that says: we learn through imitation. Right?
At the condition that what we repeat is not wrong. Repeating a million times something that is wrong will not make it right at the end.
Here are the most important verbs to learn
So the French verbs that are most helpful to know because they are most used in the language are the four verbs: to be, to have, to go, and to do. In French, the verb ‘to do’ is used all the time. For example, there is the expression ‘pay attention’, which in French is ‘faire attention’. When in English there’s a verb to express an activity, a lot of activities in French need the verb to do to be defined. For example, to do in French is ‘faire’. We omit the word ‘to’. The verb is only one word. Now, for ‘to wash the dishes’, the French will say ‘to do the dishes’: Faire la vaisselle. To clean the house, Faire le ménage. That doesn’t mean that ‘to wash’ and ‘to clean’ don’t have a translation, but we’d rather use the verb ‘faire’ in these circumstances.
We also use frequently the verb ‘to go’, ‘aller’ in French. But this one is easy if you know English already because it is used to express the future tense like in English. We don’t use it exactly like in English but it’s actually easier. If you want to say ‘I will walk’, in English, you can say ‘I am going to walk’, right. In French, we will say ‘je vais marcher’

Learn French for free:
Listen, I know that:
You can express yourself in French. I know everyone can do it because I can do it, right. I have learned English. However, it was not easy but I did it. I didn’t have the chance you have to be able to learn French online. I did it only in class. And you will learn French faster, much faster than it took me to learn your language.
I also know that:
If you are learning live in a class, Learning French online doubles your chances. In any case, I made that program for you. Show me that you are curious enough to come to the challenge and learn French for free. You will see it’s amazing. You will not know everything you need to know to speak French, of course. I am not going to pretend you can speak like me after 4 days. But I guarantee you will have a fantastic tool at your disposal at the end of the week that will make you know how you can be totally independent.
Finally:
Do you know what is generally missing in the best programs out there, at least the most famous French online courses? Yes, they reward you with points along the way, they find ways to motivate you. And they have to because their program is so long. They will leave you empty-handed at the end and if you want to redo it, you will have to pay again. Moreover, you won’t even have a tool to continue on your own. Please, if there is anyone who has finished one of these programs, let me know if I’m wrong because I have worked 20 years so that I can deliver a program that will not leave you empty-handed in the end.
