Many people want to learn a new language like French or Spanish, however, I realized I have no way to measure your progress. What a waste! Recently I was with one of my friends, and he told me he was learning for 6 months. I was surprised because he could not talk to me. Now he had a friend who learned in less than 3 months. Better yet, was fluid. Of course, he did not know all the vocabulary of this language, but the point is that he could speak. What is the point of learning a language if you can not talk at all? I do not see any. These 3 questions should help monitor progress and mastery of French, according to their level. After all, if you are a businessman, his motivation is not the same for someone who just married a Frenchwoman! 1. Why learn French? Before you start learning the French language, ask yourself: Why am I willing to learn French? If you find that is because he likes the French language (language of the novel), believe me, you learn very fast because there is a better reason to love. 2. What exactly is your motivation? You may only want to write and communicate with his French friend? For this, you should get a book, a dictionary and software to help with the basics. No need to take the month of French class. 3. Whether for business or for fun? If you are learning French for business, you should take this more seriously, and consider attending a class with a native speaker. lessons with audio elements and in writing will help a lot. Whatever your motivation, you should speak French regularly, otherwise all efforts will be lost. Do not forget: the only way to become fluent in any language (French, Spanish, Arabic, etc.) is practice. Do not be shy, do not learn much!
