      Dear Brenda,
      I have a request for French language learners who use RUclips, regardless of your levels of proficiency in French. I am a linguist and I am conducting a study for an article and I would like to invite you to participate. The study is anonymous and serves research purposes only.

    I've watched this 3 times whilst doing cardio (exercise bike), will now watch it again later while taking notes and writing each word down 3 times, will perhaps re-watch it just before bed.
    Repetition is the best pathway to memorise things, especially words/vocab. Doing so as you exercise is the best possible combo, hence my tip.
    And thank you Cindy for the great content!

    • @Frencheezi

      My plan is to stick to vocab building for the next 2 or 3 months and then move onto grammar. In other words, I shall be devouring your content quite a bit, and for that I thank you again!

      I know where you're coming from, I was in your position once, albeit in England. Keep listening to French (radio, tv, anything) and surrounding yourself with French people. You will eventually understand. Remember, immersion is the best way to learn a language! So make best use of the opportunity you have :)
