    What a wonderful overview of the subject for us native English speakers! Camille covers the grammar, the vocab, the pronunciation, and the cultural aspects of polite greetings and interactions. Each of these areas is quite important.

    I appreciate Camille’s beautiful speaking voice and diction, and her clear explanations. I also love her emphasis on modern spoken French. After all – learning proper written French is extremely important, but one also needs to anticipate the less formal form of spoken French that will actually be heard during everyday interactions.

    This audiobook manages to cover an enormous amount of material in a short amount of time. I like listening to these audiobooks in the car, as a way to reclaim my otherwise “wasted” time. This one, in particular, is a wonderful resource for someone going to a French-speaking country for the first or second time!

    Thank you, Camille, for your audiobooks, Facebook posts, and e-mails. They each give valuable linguistic *and* cultural information to those of us English speakers who are interested in improving our knowledge of France and French culture.

    This material is so easy to follow and helpful. And it is good to be able to interact with it on my phone, my tablet or my PC depending on where I am.
    I know that with the materials from Camille I will soon be able to function in France without embarrassment.
    I have used other materials to attempt to learn French in the past but these are definitely the best, the clearest and the most relevant in relation to how French is actually spoken. I look forward to using more of the materials which I recently purchased and I look forward to obtaining more resources from ‘Frenchtoday’ as I gain mastery of French. Thank you Camille for your wonderful assistance and your great understanding of learner needs. It is much appreciated. And I love the practical tips you send regularly by email. They are especially helpful! Thank you. You are very generous with your teaching.

    Excellent for introductions especially if one is new to the cultural expectations. I just wish some of the conversations could have been longer.

    Quite good lesson. Pretty informative, and it was really entertaining. I have recently purchased a couple more French Today audio files, and I’m excited to begin using them.

    I have been purchasing the French Today audios for nearly 2 years. As I utilise them more, I enjoy adding to my collection. I keep them on my phone as I stay long term blocks of 3 months in France. In this time to add to the immersion experience of conversations with locals, I listen to the audios because I find in the day to day, you keep saying the same phrases whether they are right or wrong. This way I can add phrases and correct any errors also. So it is invaluable to have such a brilliant tool to step up my vocabulary and grammar with “Mastering French Adjectives or Verbs”, my listening ear with “A Moi Paris 1 & 2” and I fine tune my conversation skills with “French greetings, pronunciation & Secrets of French Conversation”. I can play these high quality, well written, spoken and
    explained guides; anywhere I go. I love them and they have helped enrich my language experience in France.

    Thank you Camille and Olivier for providing such a great product and service (both before and after purchase).

    The audio is so useful: I put it on my iPod and listen/repeat at the gym. I feel confident now that when I speak French, at least, I am polite!

    This is a fairly simple audio but it helps to reinforce the necessity that politeness in the spoken language is very important in France. I find the most benefit from the audios is the repetition and pronunciation practice that they provide.
