Welcome: what you will achieve
Learning a language is not about memorising lists. It is about understanding, repeating and above all daring to speak, a little every day. Mistakes are not a problem: they are steps.
What you will be able to do by the end of the course (level B1):
- Pronounce French sounds clearly.
- Introduce yourself and talk about your daily life, your work and your plans.
- Buy, bargain, take transport and ask for directions.
- Tell what you did and say what you are going to do.
- Make phone calls, write a simple email and handle a short job interview.
- Keep improving on your own with a method and good tools.
Our story. Emeka sells phone accessories in Lagos. More and more of his customers come from Cotonou and Lomé, and he wants to open a stand at Dantokpa market in Cotonou. He speaks almost no French and loses sales because he cannot answer customers or negotiate with landlords. His goal: run his stand in French within six months.
Your kit: a vocabulary notebook by topic, the 50 most useful verbs with their conjugations, and 100 ready-to-use phrases.
