I like the way I feel like I’m just having a chat with a friend most of the time and the exercises we do have a lot of humour in them so I can laugh and learn at the same time. Everything seems relevant to modern day life too. ​​​I am learning so many expressions that are “truly French” rather than things I just learned for exams. Also I like the way repetition is used to learn certain expressions.
I really value your lessons and there are glimpses where I can form a few sentences or a paragraph and use various tenses, which I find really rewarding and exhilarating.

​I enjoy the process of learning French and thoroughly enjoy our time. I like your videos - I find them very useful, engaging and often use them when I wait for a train for work, etc.
