Winter Break
23 months ago
I practiced a bit over winter break and will do it again this weekend. Coffee Break French is very useful in this endeavor even though so far it’s been a lot of review. I met a French guy the other night and my sister blurted out that I speak French-he started speaking a million miles an hour and I could understand a lot of it but could not reply back to a lot of it in French either-so this whole practicing the speaking part is exactly what I need.
Maybe I should join a meet up group for French speakers.

...because I am now teaching French! The last time I formally studied French was some 7 years ago. Since then I’ve had little opportunity to speak it out loud but I did try to occasionally read French publications. I’m teaching a class which introduces kids to 5 different languages-we do really basic things and I want to practice and add to my skills so I can eventually be truly trilingual. :) To do this I’ve started with Coffee Break French-it’s a really good review, especially for pronunciation. I plan to do this at least once per week.
