    I'm French and sooo touched by all the people trying to learn French. It's a very nice language, even tho even as a native speaker I still struggle with so rules, I'm sure they're perfecly learnable. Plus, that's somthing pretty great with French: there are rules so if you learn them 50 % to 60% of the work is done (there are exception ofc but those are learnable too ;))

    Wow, my jaw is on the floor….I just started the course. French will be my fifth language…learning french in school made it all seem so intimidating, but then again, I was just after the A!….so now I’m starting from scratch and giving it another try at 30…. I can’t believe already how amazingly simplistic you are making it….I love your teaching style and methods. I know it will get far more difficult, but with you, I’m truly excited to proceed! Thank you.

    French is soo hard for me I never could understand. I don’t know how to pronounce a single letter, but you made it simple.

I understand Spanish so that made it a little easier, but French is just too hard but I’m understanding it a little bit better because of you.❤
