General Information and ideas


Outside of class

To improve your listening and speaking skills in a social setting, consider attending the evening or afternoon events I organise in the city.



We have a twin city in Caen. I am the Chair of the Twinning Association for France and Germany. To find out more about our twin cities, visit this website.


Tips for tuning your ear to French

Listen to French Music. 

Watch French TV series and films (or at least videos/news in French)


There is a lot of stuff online for learning the French language (not all of it, correct!)

You can find some resources online to help you study French by yourself here 

Gender of nouns - here is a blog post that may help.



Find some Francophone music you like - there's an extraordinary amount out there, and all can be seen on YouTube whenever you like. I have written much more about French music here.


mardi, 5 août

Today, we will embark upon your French Course. We will look at the alphabet, some numbers and how to introduce yourself in French.


In the first class, we will introduce ourselves and find our reasons for learning French, as we do not all know each other yet.

- Comment vous appelez vous?

- Quel âge avez vous?

- Où habitez vous? / Vous êtes d'où?


  • Je m'appelle... (Je suis...)

  • J'ai ... ans

  • J'habite à .... en Angleterre/ en Grande Bretagne/ au Royaume Uni

  • Je suis de...


By the end of this session, you should be able to:

Introduce yourself and spell your name (possibly the name of your street, city, or place of birth).

Can you give me your age? Your nationality? What about your occupation (e.g. accountant)?


What can you tell someone a little about French Grammar?

Gender, adjectives...?



An earworm that teaches you the alphabet.

Another earworm for the months of the year...

This guy does a lot of beginner's videos... Now there's enthusiasm, and then there's ~Thomas!

He can, at least, serve as a reminder of the correct pronunciation, should you need one...
