So many people seem to learn languages effortlessly and remember new words instantly. And when you ask these people about the best way to learn French, they usually offer the super cliché advice, "put yourself in situations where you're forced to use the language and just talk. It's the only way to learn!"
Sure, speaking to people will improve your French language skills and help you meet new friends (and maybe even find love in a new city).
But why go into these stressful situations when you don't even know how to start a conversation or how to respond when someone talks to you? Or maybe you know what to say right up until the moment you need to say it, and then suddenly you forget everything you learned from your boring French grammar books.
There is one solution to this...and it's as easy as reading an entertaining story. Reading a compelling story not only boosts your imagination but also helps you organize phrases into a logical order. Wouldn't it be amazing to improve your ability to easily remember what you're reading?
This series of French dialog books follows the story of Oliver Petit. Oliver is coming to France to improve his French skills during his semester at Sorbonne University in Paris. Live through familiar experiences in your imagination by playing the role of Oliver. You'll talk to friends and family, travel around France, order delicious food, go shopping, visit interesting places, learn about the French culture, and perhaps even find a girlfriend; all while learning French effortlessly and enjoyably.
The books aren't meant for rote learning, however. That's too boring! Instead, you become an active listener (or reader in this case) in lively conversations between the characters in the story.
These books will show you how to ask questions and create responses, with hundreds of ready-to-use French phrases linked together in easy-to-digest, bite-sized chapters. Practice situational dialogs and visualize yourself speaking French without any anxiety.
