I am taking a break from my classes at AF and getting back to frenchetc.org; I realize how much more suited the structure of the podcasts and worksheets are for me to comprehend and learn the French language, and I also appreciate the additions of songs and videos. Thanks to all at FRENCH ETC!
Merci, Anne!! I have studied French with Rosetta Stone, Berlitz, and the Alliance Francaise and Anne is by far the best teacher with the best process of any. You learn very practical French in a supportive and fun way and she has fantastic tools to augment the lessons. I really look forward to my weekly lessons; each one is custom designed for where I am and what I need. Anne is very creative in using different learning methodologies with a focus on getting you to speak the language. When there’s an important grammar rule she explains it in a clear way with lots of examples. She’s a fantastic teacher … and her teaching is totally current unlike most French text and workbooks.
I have studied French for ten months. Most has been on my own, using Rosetta Stone, various audio sources, and various grammar texts. The most intensive was two days of Immersion French at a local Alliance Francaise. Personal instruction from Anne has included the best of all of these techniques, and none of the downsides. I get personal attention without having to get the words exactly right, right now; I get suggestions when I need them, but I can take the time to try to get the phrases out myself; I get gentle pointers supplied in a supportive manner. Along the way, I get insights into the French and the French culture. In two sessions, I’ve begun to develop a sense of confidence that I haven’t had in ten months of study. I can feel it starting to come together. (And that’s just from the personal classes — the podcasts and worksheets offered to site members are ALONE worth the membership – easily the best basic and intermediate French language podcasts I’ve seen.) I’m glad I used those other sources, because now I see just how good this website and this instructor are. Very highly recommended.
I studied french with Anne for almost 2 years. She is an exceptional teacher with so many tools that make learning french clear and easy. Any question you have can be answered with one of her organized and concise worksheets. Anne is skilled at teaching from beginning to advanced students. I have tried a few french study programs including classes at my high school and rosetta stone, and I can honestly say that Anne’s lessons were far superior to both of those. She is a lovely person and a patient teacher. I highly recommend both her online and “in-person” classes.
Hello Anne,
I just want to say THANK YOU!! Your website, podcasts and material are WAY more helpful than any other resource I’ve seen and I’ve tried MANY materials for teaching myself french, including Rosetta, Tell Me More, etc.
I love the way the podcast is set up, how you introduce and explain just the right things and then play the whole conversation very slowly which is SO helpful for someone who has so little comprehension speed.
The worksheets are very thorough and helpful as well. Thank you so much.
I have been taking classes with Anne for 5 years and, it has not only been a great learning experience, it has actually been fun. Anne’s methods are way more interesting than French in college and she makes a lot more sense and I know that, if I put the time in, I can really make progress. She seems to have a work sheet on almost everything I have difficulty with and continues to add to them everyday. French etc just keeps getting better and better. Thanks Anne.
