Free Lessons with audio recordings

Leçons gratuites avec enregistrements audio

I strongly believe that to learn French, you need a tutor. These lessons are not designed to teach you all works on iPhone the basis, but rather clarify points that are often misunderstood by students.

If you'd like to take French lessons with me, I offer lessons over the phone, or private and group lessons in the Boston, MA area. Go to the French Tutoring chapter for more info :-)

Note ; you will need Apple's QuickTime Player (free to download for Mac and Windows) for the audio.

To be informed of new releases - I'll be adding free content often - contact me, and I'll add you up to my email list.
