Your comment is much appreciated.

YouTube is a great source of information. It can be a great way to start building some vocabulary and understanding some French concepts.

For tutors, I recommend iTalki or Verbling. Check them out. You don't have to spend much.

Thanks for commenting.

Hey, Sami,

Talking to native speakers is a great way to learn and/or improve your learning. I've done it for a couple of years, and it has worked great.

Don't worry about accents. They're hard to eliminate and even impossible at times. What matters is that you're able to understand and speak the language.

There's no such thing as a right or wrong way to start. I would recommend you learn some vocabulary and grammar first either by yourself or by taking classes and then look for a French speaker to practice with. This will make things easier for you.

Thanks for stopping by!

Hey, John,

You’re most welcome! There are many resources online, and some of them are even free! Isn’t that great?

I highly recommend Conversation Exchange. I have made good friends and have been able to practice the language.

Let me know how it goes. Thanks for commenting.

Hello there! This is an amazing review you have got here. For some time now, I have been downloading videos on Youtube so I can watch and learn at my leisure time due to the nature of my job as it is very hectic. I will take your advice on getting a private tutor. I think that will help me better.

Thanks!

I have never talked to anyone who learned to speak French or any other language online. Have you? This seems to be a method that should work for many, and if you were on a platform where you were speaking to someone for a portion of the class, you should be able to get some of the pronunciation correct, or close.

I have a definite Texas Twang and laugh when I hear myself recorded. It is really bad! However, with an online class, it seems that you could replay as often and whenever you wanted. This should give you some assurance of being able to gain a reasonable command of at least some social parts of the language. I have never taken any foreign language and don't really know how to start. Is there a best practice theory? Or do you just dive right in? Is French the best language to take on first? Thanks, Sami

Sacre bleu! lol I have looked for some good online resources to learn french (and german) so thank you for this well researched article. Youtube really is such a good place to start, and I did not even know about conversation exchange. I will have to try that it seems like a fun way to make some friends and also learn a language - great!
