    I’ve recently decided to try learn french. It’s beautiful language. I faced french in high school but that time I was not so impressed by the beauty of the language and did not pay attention to it. I need to start from scratch but I hope this course will help me cover basic ‘language’ needs ;)

    I am basically taking this course for review for more advanced courses. In college I did well in French but since it was not a major I needed to drop the French 3 Advanced class to keep up with my Chemistry and required courses. Now after 20 plus years of teaching I am reutred and would like to persue the French again. I really find these videos easy going and informative. My professor studied in France but because of the fast pace of the class we didn’t hear the interesting information behind the basic information. I am definitly planning on taking the advanced courses.

    Merci! I am watching the videos and I enjoy it! Soon I am thinking to register your 16-week-long course because I think it does worth it in advance. Cheers!
