French 101 for Beginners

Section 1: Introduction to the French language Lecture 1: Introduction Hello and welcome to this course! Thank you for trusting me and buying the course. I worked hard on it to make sure you get a quality education. This course is meant for english speakers with zero notion of french or people who would like to be able to find everything they need on their own and be more independent. I will not teach you grammar deeply or how to conjugate complex verbs, it’s more of a course to teach you the basics, like numbers, pronouns and in general, see if you like the French language and help you decide if you want to learn more. Also, if you’d like to be more confident and stop relying on people when traveling, this course is for you! This course is divided in seven sections. The first section is about the French language in general; where it’s spoken, the differences in the alphabet, the letters, the pronunciation, etc…

The second section is about the genders, common verbs, some basic vocabulary and cultural matters. After section two, you will be able to make simple sentences and ask basic informations. In section three, we will learn a lot of vocabulary. Now that you know how to build sentences, you need vocabulary to fill them. Section four will be a big step, I’ll leave you in the wild to make sure you worked enough on the previous sections.
