You will need someone to hold you accountable and help you get through tough times when times get tough, and tough they will get. The traditional method is the so-called <em>m\u00e9thode de l\u2019oreiller<\/em> (English: pillow method) and it boils down to finding a romantic partner who happens to be a native speaker of French. If that\u2019s out of question for you, you can look for friends or people interested in language exchange. At least that isn\u2019t difficult in this era we live in. If you are unable to find companions, you can always rely on a good school, an online teacher or even a group of people learning French together.<\/p>\n<p><strong><div class=\"mkdf-separator-holder clearfix  mkdf-separator-center mkdf-separator-transparent\">\n\t<div class=\"mkdf-separator\" ><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><strong>2.Plan and execute<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong><div class=\"mkdf-separator-holder clearfix  mkdf-separator-center mkdf-separator-transparent\">\n\t<div class=\"mkdf-separator\" ><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/strong><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5107 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/ltg-academy.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Plan-Execute-LTG-Academy-1024x724.png\" alt=\"Learn French in Geneva\" width=\"781\" height=\"552\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ltg-academy.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Plan-Execute-LTG-Academy-1024x724.png 1024w, https:\/\/ltg-academy.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Plan-Execute-LTG-Academy-600x424.png 600w, https:\/\/ltg-academy.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Plan-Execute-LTG-Academy-300x212.png 300w, https:\/\/ltg-academy.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Plan-Execute-LTG-Academy-768x543.png 768w, https:\/\/ltg-academy.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Plan-Execute-LTG-Academy-1536x1086.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 781px) 100vw, 781px\" \/><\/strong><strong><div class=\"mkdf-separator-holder clearfix  mkdf-separator-center mkdf-separator-transparent\">\n\t<div class=\"mkdf-separator\" ><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Since you are working within a limited timeframe, you don&#8217;t have time to waste. You need a study plan. Any good study plan for students aiming to become fluent in any language needs to focus on all four of the main language skills: <strong>speaking, listening, writing, and reading<\/strong>. In order to achieve a high level of main skills, you need to learn some sub-skills: <strong>vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation<\/strong>. All language learning plans for beginners revolve around sub-skills. The lower you are on the proficiency scale, the more you have to focus on those. As you move up the ladder, main language skills need to be targeted more. The most pertinent note to take from this part is the importance of not skipping things in the early stages of your learning and trying to develop your main skills and sub-skills equally.<\/p>\n<p>Sadly, many solo learners find it difficult or nearly impossible to do all of this on their own. That&#8217;s why we advise you to find a native speaker to help you out or, ideally, hire a teacher to guide you along the way. We offer <a href=\"https:\/\/ltg-academy.ch\/french-courses\/\">many programs for French language learners<\/a> as well as <a href=\"https:\/\/ltg-academy.ch\/product\/popular-class-options\/\">several popular class options<\/a> available both online and in-class.<\/p>\n<p><strong><div class=\"mkdf-separator-holder clearfix  mkdf-separator-center mkdf-separator-transparent\">\n\t<div class=\"mkdf-separator\" ><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><strong>3.Materials<br \/>\n<div class=\"mkdf-separator-holder clearfix  mkdf-separator-center mkdf-separator-transparent\">\n\t<div class=\"mkdf-separator\" ><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5106\" title=\"iPad French\" src=\"https:\/\/ltg-academy.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/LTG-Academy-Learn-French-Online-1024x724.png\" alt=\"iPad French\" width=\"800\" height=\"565\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ltg-academy.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/LTG-Academy-Learn-French-Online-1024x724.png 1024w, https:\/\/ltg-academy.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/LTG-Academy-Learn-French-Online-600x424.png 600w, https:\/\/ltg-academy.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/LTG-Academy-Learn-French-Online-300x212.png 300w, https:\/\/ltg-academy.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/LTG-Academy-Learn-French-Online-768x543.png 768w, https:\/\/ltg-academy.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/LTG-Academy-Learn-French-Online-1536x1086.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong><div class=\"mkdf-separator-holder clearfix  mkdf-separator-center mkdf-separator-transparent\">\n\t<div class=\"mkdf-separator\" ><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/strong><br \/>\nThere is an abundance of materials for studying French you can find. They range from books to online apps and there is something for everyone. We also offer our own materials if you decide to study with us, but here we will be talking about some of the things available and how these things could be of use to you. We\u2019ve learned over time that there is no perfect material suitable for everyone and something that works for one student may not work so well for another. That\u2019s why we make a short list of useful materials and you can decide what works for you:<br \/>\n<strong><div class=\"mkdf-separator-holder clearfix  mkdf-separator-center mkdf-separator-transparent\">\n\t<div class=\"mkdf-separator\" ><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>A <strong>dictionary<\/strong> is the best known method of studying a language, but it may not be the most convenient one. There are many dictionaries available on the market and you can probably find one in the nearest bookstore or library. Many English-speaking students of French choose the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Larousse-Concise-French-English-English-French-Dictionary\/dp\/2035700027\"><em>Larousse Concise Dictionary<\/em><\/a>, but there are other good dictionaries available as well.<br \/>\n<strong><div class=\"mkdf-separator-holder clearfix  mkdf-separator-center mkdf-separator-transparent\">\n\t<div class=\"mkdf-separator\" ><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Grab a <strong>book<\/strong> to help you out if you fancy. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Practice-Makes-Perfect-All-One\/dp\/1260121038\"><em>Practice Makes Perfect: Complete French All-in-One<\/em><\/a> by <em>Annie Heminway<\/em> is a popular choice, but there are many books to choose from.<br \/>\n<strong><div class=\"mkdf-separator-holder clearfix  mkdf-separator-center mkdf-separator-transparent\">\n\t<div class=\"mkdf-separator\" ><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Online courses and apps<\/strong> are the most popular method of learning any language nowadays.

It should be once a week or once in two weeks that \u00a0you arrange a structured language exchange, a class with your teacher or a meeting with your group and <strong>you go over all of the things you\u2019ve learned during the last week or two<\/strong>. This checkpoint is meant for you to find holes in your knowledge and get help from someone to fill those holes with the necessary information. We all make mistakes when learning and these come in various forms, anything from a simple misunderstanding to skipping parts we dislike. These mistakes create gaps in our knowledge and these gaps sabotage our progress by creating points of frustration where we lack bits that connect together to learn a more advanced concept. If these issues aren\u2019t addressed over time, they lead to a speaker in need of relearning one or more concepts. Whether or not you are operating within a limited time frame, you should always test your knowledge from time to time!
