Publisher's Summary

Improve your listening comprehension and make learning new vocabulary so much easier with seven French short stories. Introducing a fun and effective method of learning French. When you can't slip away from daily life to immerse yourself in a French-speaking country, listening to French stories is the next best thing.

By learning this way, you will be able to:

  • Understand grammar concepts without the monotonous chore of memorizing rules
  • Grasp new vocabulary that you can immediately put to use in everyday conversations, and
  • Practice your listening skills with the stories narrated by a native French speaker

Familiarize yourself with spoken French. The over ten hours of audio recorded by French native speakers will drastically improve your pronunciation. Each story is recorded in several ways:

  • Female voice
  • Male voice
  • Vocabulary audio flash-card

No more need for a dictionary. Each story is broken down with a French and English glossary to introduce you to the words and phrases you might not understand. This removes any painful back-and-forth process of continually searching for definitions or translations.

Ideal for beginner and intermediate level. The stories are written for new French learners, but a basic understanding of French is recommended for maximum enjoyment and effectiveness of the lessons. Perfect for anyone who wants to brush up on their French.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Confusing

The chapters in the pdf via iPad do not correspond. Extremely frustrating. A pdf should work whether it’s via a laptop or an iPad. Great idea but needs more work. Love the ability to listen at various speeds and read simultaneously. To have it in print would be better but too costly to print at home.

Passé simple

It would be helpful if the stories could be told without using the passé simple. This is not helpful when people are trying to learn conversational french

only a couple hours of content

it wasnt clear that there is only a couple of hours of content if listened to at full speed- way too expensive for just a few extracts if you dont need all of the speeds.
