I am a French teacher and never noticed, but I do this a ton with my students. Reacting to something w “Oh là là!” Instead of “oh my gosh”. And answering w “ouais ouais”. Asking “C’est bon?” When I’m ready to move on. “Je sais!” When they confirm something I know. It really is a great way to teach the meaning without translating. Going to add some of yours to my list!
Même si la motivation seule ne suffit pas, je vais devoir regarder cette vidéo de motivation plusieurs fois... :) Merci Géraldine pour de bons conseils !
Salut Géraldine, I love all the helpful tips you shared with us in this video. Fluency can be very daunting. I wanted to share a little trick I used when I was learning French in high school. At the table, I would practice my French with my family [who spoke no French] & together we would learn. I would point to the various items on the table and say the name in French, then I would use the item in a sentence. It was fun for all of us and because of our little game my brother took French as well. Meilleurs, Déb Rice
Right on, Geraldine! Paying good attention to the details gives you confidence. The guy on Langfocus says that paying close attention to phonetics helps a lot with fluency. Thanks for the beautiful, careful pronunciation. I am practicing with you!
C'est géniale la façon dont tu enseignes! Est-ce que tu pourrais faire une vidéo à propos des titres honorifiques en français? Est-ce que les étudiants t'appelleraient "Madame", "Mademoiselle" ou par ton prénom?
Is it a good idea if I make myself a french instagram account and try to talk about what I had for breakfast, or what im going to do for the day and so on and post it to get help or comments? Have been thinking about doing that a for a while now
One of my favourite songs is "Appelle ton amour" by Kelly Clarkson ft. Zaz. Perhaps not ideal for a beginner to learn French. When I first heard it, I couldn't understand how I Dare You (To Love) translated to what I thought should be Call Your Lover, and so the song took me on a journey to learn new words and expressions I had never come across in my 35 years of speaking French (as a second language). Plus it's Kelly Clarkson and Zaz! So just an all around great pop song, in all the languages it's recorded in. Here's the link with lyrics : ruclips.net/video/H_856l4nBrY/видео.html
L'écoute! That's the biggest problem. I've started to wonder what systemic reasons, apart from my own hearing limitations, might be playing a part. Possibly the very frequent absence of pronounced consonants and syllables on the ends of words. Does this lend itself to fast French speakers barely touching some syllables or even dropping them out altogether?
Tes vidéos sont très bien, mais elles ne sont pas très immersives car tu parles beaucoup en anglais. Les explications en français sont idéales pour aider à comprendre le français.

Do you have any great songs you recommend to help with learning?

Je crois que pour parler français avec confiance il faut écouter et parler beaucoup en français.
D'accord
Tu es genial
Tell me a song to learn please
