To ensure you’re ready to communicate in real-life situations, Frenchsoeasy provides videos of common situations that you may find yourself in, such as going on a shopping trip, so that you’re ready to confidently use your French outside of class. Take a look at our vocabulary videos as well to further your conversational skills.

Listening and spelling challenge

Often called a “Dictée” in French, in our listening and spelling challenge, the aim is to write out exactly what you hear with as little spelling and grammatical mistakes as possible. This is a great exercise to practice your spelling in French as not everything is spelt as it sounds, and grammar can significantly affect the spelling of words. Think you can complete a challenge without any mistakes? Go to our Instagram to try it out.

French is of course spoken in France, but don’t forget about overseas French territories such as the Dominican Republican, the 29 countries in Africa which speak French as their first language as well as parts of Canada. Being able to speak French will give you access to many more cultures and people to interact with! Find all the best places to visit in your travels by engaging with locals and not having to rely on staying in tourist hot spots.

In today’s globalised world, regardless of your profession or the sector you work in, you are likely to interact with people from abroad or who do not have the same first language as you; this could be a colleague, client or even your employer. Learning an additional language makes you attractive to employers as you won’t be limited to only communicating in your mother tongue. Even if you are in school now and not yet working, by starting early you will open yourself up to great opportunities.
