Alexa your the best French teacher I've ever saw in my life, according to your good explaining, proper accent, and your enjoyable lessons. I've learned so much from you now and I really want to tell you merci beaccoup or thank you very very very much for your hard working to learn us. In 1 year almost I'll hopefully be a French Passer by using your helpful lessons !!!!!!!!!!
Like, if you guys think that Alexa is the best French Teacher !!!!!
…I agree
.......
Ikr ❣️
You are right. There is a law: The quality of what you understand depens upon the quality of the person speaking.

You are the reason I am passing French! Thank you so much my teacher is a bad explainer but you make things so much clearer!!
Same here !!! Omg !
I hadn't even got a teacher but fortunately I came by Alexa
Me too

Although there are some general rules to determine feminine and masculine, as taught in Alexa's video, I suggest that, whenever you learn a new French vocabulary word, learn it ALONG WITH its gender. For example:
1/ If you look a translation of a word from your language to French in the dictionary, ALWAYS look the gender (m.) or (f.).
2/ Likewise, if a person (teacher or else) tells how an object is called in French, think to ask wether it is masculine or feminine. DO not be satisfied with the word only.
2/ If you hear words from a native speaker or read these words, you may "guess" the gender of a specific word by paying attention to the use of definite or indefinite article (which you are now able to do thanks to Alexa's lesson). If you hear or see "une" or "la" attached to a word, you know this word is feminine. If you hear or see "un" or "le" attached to a word, you know this word is masculine.
Again, you should ALWAYS learn a French word AND its gender. If not, I would say that you learnt half the word ! That's what I say to my own students. Courage! Great video Alexa ! I just wanted to add some additional tips. :-)
Alexa, only recently did I discover your lessons and now I am up to number eight. Your accent is clear, your speed is perfect and the amount of material in one lesson is just right for an 82-year-old man. I learned French at school and thought it was similar to medicine, tasting horrible but somehow making the victim better. It was a shock to find, on my first visit to France in my teens, that people spoke the language to babies, cats and dogs. Nobody had ever explained to me that it was a national language!
Merci beaucoup alexa I love your vedios My teacher is a bad explainer😇😇
Like If you Agree She Is the best teacher
She's not the best teacher but she's the best french teacher

My teacher was talking abt something like "vou and nous form" idk what that is what is it called
When she teaches I feel like my mother is teaching me. She is so sweet.
Hah ha ha!

Salut from Egypt :)
Merci beaucoup Alexa, j'ai enfin compris la différence entre " les " et "des," l'article défini et l'article indéfini. Vos leçons ont été si précieuses dans mon parcours d'apprentissage du français. Je suis très reconnaissant.

You should download an app called "Nglish" for learning English. I swear it's the best thing ever. Thank me later lol.

Alexa, these lessons are so useful for me. I don't have time to attend a regular course so I am learning a lot from you. I have many French colleagues at work and they share loads of French documents daily, so with your videos I kinda learn the language from scratch like a toddler:) Merci beaucoup.
i never understood what my madame always taught me in school but now after listening to your lessons madame i can simply understand french very well and i hope that this time i am going to score 100 in my french exam

Simply wonderful teaching & enjoyable, makes me smile everytime I hear you
Merci beaucoup Alexa😊I finished the articles part today in my class.your video was extremely illustrative with all the required examples.Great Revision done.Merci.😊
Bonjour Alexa! When do I use the indefinite from the definite? Like you said for masculine words, I use le for definite and "un" for indefinite. When should I use definite articles and when should I use indefinite articles?
In Portugal the grades are from 0-20, last year i had 9 in french, this year i got a 15!! Thank u sooooo much
Très bien ! :)
Hello Alexa- I just wanted to say great job! I am from Alabama but live in Italy and France. Italian and English are my primary languages but my French is poor. I'm thankful for your lessons as I feel that I am improving. Merci!!!!!

Your videos are really very interesting and useful.
Je veut savoir quand utiliser "des" et quand utiliser "les" dans une sentence?
I really can't figure out when to use "des" and when to use "les" within a sentence. I get confused between these two.
Really good teacher. Clear with many examples. I'd love to learn along with your series

Tu est superb Alexa!!! Merci pour vos cours. Je apprends le francais plus rapide avec vous que dans l'Universite. Lesson 8: "Il y a des livres sur la table. Un camion est plus grand que une voiture." :)
Thank you Alexa, you make learning french fun and easy.
YOU MADE ME LOVE FRENCH
You are amazing Alexa... Thanks for your beautiful French lessons!
Merci beaucoup, Alexa, mon cher professeur en français. Vous êtes le meilleure de tous. Sincèrement merci d’un étudiant chinois.
I just realized I already know the gender of all nouns in French. My first language is Portuguese. I've learned French listening you speaking english, so I wasn't aware about this similarity. The genders are the same for both languages. If I know the meaning of a french word in Portuguese, I'll able to know the gender in French. It's much more complicated for who just speaks English. Basically, In English we just use gender rules for pronouns (possessive, object and etc).
just like me XD
Basically, it's easier to find out the french gender if: you're a Portuguese speaker and have some notion of English in general.
Well, same for spanish speakers. Even my first language is mandarin, also speak spanish.
I’m also kinda privileged when it comes to learning French since Persian’s my first language, we may not have masculine or feminine versions of each word but we have loads of words in common.
What can be kinda tricky is the fact that when i sometimes see a word in french ik I’ve heard it before in either of the languages ik( Persian, English, Arabic & a little German) but i can’t quite put my finger on it haha, I just get bombarded by my brain trying to guess which language it’s most similar to.
Thank you! Your lesson is much better structured and you explain so we'll , far better than the classes I am taking from AF.
Best teacher in the world :) Great in explaining the technicalities of French. I admire you very much! Kudos Alexa😍
Am really comfortable in following your lessons and thank you very much. Merci beaucoup
Thanks Alexa, your teaching is super....
The articles are quite identic to spanish articles , you make it really easy to learn french .
saludos
Best teacher ever! Merci beaucoup Alexa!!
today i learnt definite and in definite articles ,am very comfortable and intresting to learn through you madam,I feel as if you are there with me to clear all my doubts when i am in trouble ,you are really a very good teacher madam,thank you very much.
I wish I could find you sooner. Cuz if I did, I'd be a very good French speaker now. Anyway, I'm taking advantage of all your lessons.
Thanks a lot, #Alexa!

You are so charming and encouraging!
And your lessons are always easy to understand.
Merci :) xxx
Amazing, thank you
Merci beaucoup pour la leçons. La leçons est intéressante et agréable😊
I am doing your lessons systematically. From 1 onwards. It is helping me a lot to understand many things that I was unable to understand on Duo. Although duo made me able to reach and catch you. Thanks a lot 🙏
I just found your channel and I'm loving it so hard because I'm trying to learn French by myself and I find pretty easy to understand the articles because I speak Spanish as well, isn't that weird?
Alexa, your the best french teacher that i ever seen in my life. Your tutorials helped me so much in my exams.
Your lesson are amazing and the way you are teaching is awesome. You are so sweet.Thanks a lot !
Hey Alexa! Learning a lot! Just want to say that my first language it’s Spanish and the indefinite articles are exactly the same! Didn’t realize till now that I don’t really know how i know which word uses un or una (spanish for une) 👀 i guess it’s something you learn with experience and I’m SO glad I don’t have to 😂
that is not true, i know it since i am from nicaragua
When to use le and un as both of them are used before a masculine noun.
It's the same logic as le with the and in with a
Le is definitive, as in 'the' whereas un is a/an.
Very good explanation thanks Alexa!!!
I love her!!! sweetest teacher of all
I learn all my French from your lesson.Thank you very very much I .Alexa I would like to know that you have published any French exercise book to improve and practise more reading and writing.If so how do I get one.
Hey, its my exam day after tomorrow, can anyone suggest or explain anything that can help in learning the difference between (alors que, malgré, même si, mais et par contre) thanks in advance. Need help.!
Did you pass
Did you pass lol
Lol yes I passed 😎😂
Super Like, Thank you so much Alexa for these interesting lessons and also thank you so much for all your efforts

Thanks so much another Great video
***** hi Alexa your videos are great, please reply
Thanks a lot for these excellent lessons Alexa :) I really badly wanted to learn french for ages & couldn't find any good lessons on internet then finally I found your classes this helps me a lots & lots & lots. Your the best teacher I've ever came across with. Thanks a lot for your time and efforts :) Merci ! Salute
thank you so much, I was struggling to learn this through other sites, but the way you explained it was so easy to understand, really good video, thumbs up!
Merci beaucoup Alexa! You are absolutely amazing in every way! Did french at school for 5 years but feel I have already learned more in just a few videos. Would you (or anybody else reading this) recommend some good text books for me, to supplement my learning? Thank you again
***** Thank you for your suggestions. I'm looking down the path of music since it is such a big passion of mine (two birds one stone right). Come across a band called Louise Attaque. I recommend to all because it is very clear and catchy music, makes for some good learning material :)
leko200001 Stromae is a great french pop singer.
Thank you! I've also had a lot of problems with un and une! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR HELPING ME PASS THE TEST :))))))
is she god at french
Hey Alexa um i have a question i hope you could answer: What if your word has an s at the end but you want to make it plural, how do you do that?
Annemary Boless I’ll just add another s😂
Add es
you don't add any - s you just leave it like that and change the article to plural
hope i answered your doubt
thank you for your useful and nice lessons! You are a good teacher!
I love your reactions And u are the reason to get my motivation to learn french.
Alexa, thanks for your teaching! I have a question on "Un elephant" - how about a female elephant?
Une éléphante :)
