Learn to Speak French

So you want to learn to speak French? Languages, unfortunately, take awhile to learn. The best way to learn is to experiment, make mistakes, and talk French as frequently as possible. Being completely immersed in French and speaking/hearing it all day will make learning French easier.

Watching movies in French should help. Get friends to speak to you in French on a regular basis, you will learn faster.

Of course, the best way would be to visit France for several months and immerse yourself in the culture. However, that’s not always possible. You need to find someone who speaks french fluently that you can converse with. Simply reading literature and memorizing words won’t cut it when learning another language. I know from experience, because I tried it myself. It may be annoying to those around you, but start speaking french out loud for every little thing you do or see.

If you want your kids to learn to speak and write French, it is advisable to look for some interesting and interactive ways to teach French. Hiring French language tutors or sending kids to French language schools is not fruitful in most cases. Kids get bored with the structured language lessons or tutorials that aim to teach language rules, grammar, and phonics without making them enjoyable.

Learning French Resources
There are plenty of DVDs, CDs or tapes to help. I have used the Linguaphone course Learn to Speak French. There are others - such as Pimsleur Conversational French - Audio CD 8CDs 16 Lessons Audio CDs play on Car/Portable/Home CD player and the Berlitz Basic French 136 page fully illustrated course book and 6 Audio CDs Other Learn to Speak French.
