Unabridged Audiobook
I am intermediate level French ( beginning French 3 college level) I became stuck at a certain point in my studies. I started listening to this and two hours in “light bulbs” were turning on every where. It definitely ties already learned concepts together for me. It’s amazing because the explanations are so simple.
Fantastic audiobook for learning French! I would highly recommend anyone interested in learning French start with Paul Noble's books. This book is great because Paul Noble takes the time to explain all the little quirks of the language which helps you develop the skills to learn new words or put together new phrases beyond route memorization. The audiobook also includes natural pauses (~10s) to allow you to figure out how to say the phrases yourself before hearing the French speaker. I also like that Paul constantly builds on previous explanations which helps reinforce the learning. For instance, you learn how to I am going some where early in the book and then learn how to say I am going to do something in the future later in the book. It all flows well.
I am a true beginner to the French language (only took Spanish in high school and college), and this audiobook made learning the basics easy. Having the native speaker along with the narrator to help with the correct pronunciation was very helpful. I had to re-listen to many sections, but I expected that. I recommend this to anyone trying to learn French or review what they’ve already learned.
Highly recommended, couldn’t ask for better
