Écoutez, Parlez!
An Individualized French Oral Program - Learning French is entirely oral and
pronunciation is key!
- 10-15 minutes of "speaking"
French daily! (more than in a traditional class)
- Privacy in Learning!
- No
teacher required!
- Also a great supplement
to regular French!
Each book has a spiraled approach so the
student is always building and adding to previously learned concepts.
Why this program is better...
Learning a language is an exercise in listening and speaking while
getting a mental image of what is being spoken. Écoutez,Parlez! provides oral exercises on CD, along with bright and colourful images on every page!
Not only does it teach pronunciation, but provides a fun way to learn vocabulary, verbs and phrases. We learn a
language to communicate. Those who can speak some French, often don't because they're too self-conscious about
the way they sound. Écoutez,Parlez! uses a simple one on one repetitive approach to developing proper pronunciation.
Even children as young as 5 or 6 can use this program easily. Repetition is the most natural way to learn a language
and this program is so easy to use! Just open the book, turn on the CD and LEARN!
