Speak Basic French Before Going to France

By Alice Sy

If you are set to travel to France, it will be best for you to learn how to speak basic French so you can easily mingle with the people there. You can have the best trip to the much coveted country if you know how to use their language.

To learn how to speak basic French, what you can do is search for a tutor who is capable of teaching the French language. This is quite effective because you can hear instant feedbacks on your progress from the one who is teaching you.

A good alternative to hiring a private tutor is to use the internet to study French. There are many online tutors and they can teach you as effectively as an actual tutor. You can also have control over your time. You can choose the hour and the day that will be convenient for you. Plus, you can pick up the program that will suit your need and budget.

A good alternative that you can take if you always have a busy schedule is to download a series of pre-recorded materials that you can listen to or watch in your spare time.

Watching these videos or audios can even be a good way to kill time. If you are waiting for someone in a restaurant or somewhere else, you can watch and make that moment fruitful. Waiting is a very boring task but when you have something to do, it can be worthwhile.

You can get these audios in various formats, where the .wav and .mp3 formats are among the most popular. Your can immediately send these files to your handy media player and listen to them anytime of the day. Since they are in a portable device, you can bring these files along with you to any destination - even to France. Therefore, you can rest assured that even when there is no PC around, your lessons will continue.

You have the power to choose which concept is right for you -- getting a private tutor or going for a recorded tutorial. Either of them can give you success.

While learning, you can take down notes or jot down each word that you will learn so you won't easily forget them. Some parts of what you will learn in basic French are numbers, parts of speech and phrases that you can use regularly when you are already in France.
