Une Semaine à Paris

Charming! Love the speed option as well.

This audio book is just what I need to get ready for my first trip to Paris. The two contrasting speeds are perfect, one at my level and one to challenge me.

Thoroughly enjoying it and making progress.

An entertaining yet thorough way to improve listening comprehension. Having both the slow and street speed recordings along with the PDF’s is so wonderful and helpful! No technical issues at all. Everything works perfectly. Highly recommend!

I recently ordered both Une Semaine à Paris and the Verb Drills and am so happy to have found this resource. I’ve been looking for a way to improve my understanding of spoken French and my pronunciation, and I’m finding Une Semaine à Paris to fit right in with my level of comprehension. I’m challenged without being discouraged and can say “hooray for me” when I understand the gist of the story without the written words in front of me. The verb drills are wonderful for helping conjugations to become automatic and the audio is giving me a structure for daily practice which I couldn’t seem to accomplish on my own. Thank you so much for all the work you have put into helping so many people learn and improve their French. I feel as if I have a friend in France!

In general very useful , but in some cases , translation to english are not accurate .

I have been learning french on and off for about ten years now. The problem I had was there was no structure to my learning, I flitted from one thing to another and also had a tendance to read french but not listen to it. With the exelent une semaine a Paris audio novel series l can do both. Well worth the money.

Thank you very much for giving me the free upgrade of Une Semaine A Paris. I’ve been enjoying listening to Camille’s recording of the new Street French version in my car. Everyday I must spend 3 hours commuting to and from work. So listening to Camille in my car on my way to/from work is pretty much the only way I can progress with learning French. I love the new PDF format with the English text right below the French text. It’s much easier on the eye this way. In the past I had to open up the English PDF and position it next to the French PDF to obtain a “side-by-side” translation, which made me feel quite dizzy after a while.

One thing I did notice is that Thomas and Angela still visited the Virgin Megastore on the Avenue des Champs-Élysées but currently the Virgin Megastore is no longer there. Perhaps you could replace the Virgin Megastore with some other store that still exists in the next upgrade?

I’ve really enjoyed listening to the audio book while I drive places. it helps keep my mind on the loop and forces me to think in French a bit more every day, it’s very helpful with pronunciations, now I know that the way I was reading was wrong. it also helps me to keep interested since the subjects apply to situation that we might really encounter. It would have been helpful if the characters had their own voices, it would make much clearer who is who, nevertheless grate work!

I really like this product-just about to go to France on holiday again and will be downloading it to my tablet to refresh conversational listening-I do recommend it

I love this approach! Listening, reading, together or separately. And I think the inserts are great. They give practical information in English on Paris arrondissements, ordering food, saying hello and other useful tidbits. I have several of the audiobooks and audio lessons and find them all to be very helpful.

For me, Une Semaine a Paris is more like “everyday in Paris” because I listen to a bit of the book every day! Over and over again. I used the book to prepare for my trip to Paris, then spoke French every day of my time there, then continue studying now that I’m home. I just love this approach to the language. I’m sure that I still butcher the plus perfect, but oh well. While in France, I was able to communicate almost anything I wanted and that was absolutely the best part of my travels… Even above the fabulous sites!

Thank you, Camille!

What I love about Camille’s audio books is that you can listen to them over and over again, especially if you have put them on your iPod or other portable device. Just this morning I took a long walk around the neighborhood and listened to a couple of chapters on my iPod. No matter how well your comprehension develops, you ALWAYS hear phrases and expressions that make you say, “Well, of course! I have to remember that one!” The process to download the content is flawless (unless you are a complete luddite!). I just never tire of listening to the books because the content is so practical and I love the sound of her voice. Hers is an accent and register of speech that one would be wise to imitate.

I would like an audio dictionary. It would be very helpful to hear the correct pronunciation of a French word.

The Une Semaine à Paris is a great way for the French learner to start to move towards the intermediate level. The audiobook is very well produced in very clearly spoken French, and the accompanying materials are very helpful. Not only is one able to learn to speak and understand French, but also learns quite a bit about that fabulous city, Paris. From comparison between the French text and the English translation, I have been able to considerably enhance my translation skills, steadily moving towards a more easily flowing style, using French that is much more authentic. A great product.

I have been writing, editing and publishing learning materials for the corporate market for 25 years and I find Camille’s, Une Semaine à Paris to be one of the most effective learning packages that I’ve seen on any subject for the adult learner.

The novel was fun to listen to, I really liked the characters, the daily situations, and I learned a lot about Paris. The question/answer booklet was great to memorize the vocabulary. The recordings were slow enough that I could repeat the questions and answers out loud. It was great practice.
