French Language Immersion:know the Best Way to Master French

January 1st, 2010 | by admin |

Is the best learn French method a complete immersion in a French country? Do you believe this? This is what we are going to demonstrate in this article.

A long time ago, the best method to learn French was to spend some time directly in France, Canada or Switzerland.

Today, the Internet is a powerful way to learn French effectively, and you don’t need to spend all this money. You know, airfare, hotels, meals, etc…

You can now become fluent in French (and any other language by the way) without moving from your sweet home! How cool is that?

Let’s compare three different methods…

The first one is your local community class. There are two main disadvantages:

a. Obviously, no native speaker is present in the class..

b. it may be an expensive course

The second method to learn french is a complete immersion

Many people claim that it is the absolute best way to learn a foreign language?

I don’t think so. I’ve seen this in many countries where people speak different languages, and this doesn’t make any difference.

And very often, those who are stronger in the language spent less time in the country and speak better!

The real problem is your “teacher”. If you have the right teacher, it doesn’t matter where you are located, you will speak well, no matter the language you are trying to learn.

Another method (I like it) is phone conversations with a native French speaker (via skype for example)

Bottom line is that if you are really motivated, and you have the real teacher, it doesn’t matter where you are learning french.

Let’s wrap up…

The best learn French method is the following (and it works with any language):

1. Get the right teacher

2. Motivation

If these two factors are put together, mastering the french language becomes inevitable.

    Help Needed… Good French Programs?
    I am in French 3 right now at my school. Unfortunately the teacher is not the best teacher ever and I do not feel prepared for French 4, which I plan on taking next year. So I am looking for good French programs, including books, audio, and pretty much everything that would be helpful.
    At the local book store there are several audio products I found, and they are:

    Instant Immersion Deluxe v3.0
    Living Language Basics
    Living Language Beyond Basics
    Living Language Ultimate Beginner/Intermediate
    Back to School from Penton Overseas
    Berlitz Deluxe Language Pack
    Simon and Schuter Conversation French
    Barrons Mastering French Level 1 Second Edition
    Rosetta Stone French
    French for Dummies

    I was wondering if anyone has used one of the programs before, or programs by a certain publisher and thought the product was good and would recommend it for someone who wishes to take the AP French exam and pass it!

    Also, what level would you recommend? How are the levels determined? I don’t see myself as a beginner, but should I try intermediate or advanced?

    If you used some other programs and found them useful, would you also please let me know.

    Thank you.
