Mastering French Conversation unit 3

Revisado: 05-12-16

Would you listen to Mastering French Conversation, Unit 3 again? Why?

I have listened to Unit 3 many times. I found the course very helpful in improving my conversational French through the substitution drills which really drilled home the various pronouns and other sounds and nuances of French. I have found my conversation more natural and spontaneous after using Unit 3. This is not a course you will breeze through and, in fact, one you should listen to numerous times. The unique FSI method is for any serious student of French and the quality of this particular product makes it a must have for anyone working towards speaking French like the French including those who have previously completed unit 2, Persons who already have a background in French may find this course great for a review, but I believe they should download the free demo provided on the website to evaluate the course level vs their needs. The FSI method worked terrifically for me and I look forward to a unit 4. I have used numerous other French language programs but I like this one best for developing automatic and responsive French conversation. I find down loading the free transcript and reviewing it helps me sort out subtleties in the language I may not hear correctly.

Mastering French Conversation unit 2

Revisado: 05-12-16

If you could sum up Mastering French Conversation, Unit 2 in three words, what would they be?

Well done throughout
.Unit 2 was a natural follow on to Unit 1. Using the FSI method of substitution drills really keeps you on your toes and shows how French conversation is constructed allowing for more automatic responses, I find dealing with similar structures but using different substituted words makes the memorization easier. As in unit 1, I recommend downloading the free transcript to ensure you know the words you are hearing. Seriously learning a foreign language is time consuming with lots of repetition but the rewards great. I was able to finish unit 2 before arriving in Tahiti. It was a joy to communicate fairly responsively, especially when I needed help to find my misplaced cell phone. If you put out the effort to speak to them, they will respond in spades which makes all the hard work worth it.

Mastering French Conversation unit 1

Revisado: 05-12-16

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I have been a student of French for a while and had some previous exposure to the FSI method which I liked very much. I was taking a 4 month round-the-world trip and bought this course as a basic refresher before I arrived in French Polynesia. I have always had a problem understanding French that I hear in conversation. I found the audio quality of this product great and the substitution drills good for differentiating sounds I have confused in the past while challenging me to respond rather than think about responses. I highly recommend downloading the free manuscript in order to see and picture the spelling of similar sounding words in your head. I have listened to this unit several times and believe repetition is the best way to learn French conversation. At my level, I probably should have started with unit 2, but I found it a good review for reestablishing my very basic French conversation.

Any additional comments?

Great product, I am going to get unit 2.
