Did you know that French is the official language of more than 30 countries? It is second only to English for the number of countries where it has official status: 32 as opposed to 45. So, while it’s easy to think of French dialects as comprising European French, Canadian French and African French, it isn’t that simple. In reality, there are many different regional and cultural dialects, even just within France. For example, African French is an umbrella term that includes different varieties, like the one spoken in Abidjan (located in the Ivory Coast). This dialect, unlike any other form of French, has a lot of borrowings from Mandinka (an indigenous language spoken in the region) like une go (girl) or bra-môgô (dude).
Regardless of the specific dialect you want to acquire, Listen & Learn can provide a native speaker to teach you. Our qualified instructors will design personalised lessons that will help you become fluent in the French variety of your choosing, as well as helping you learn the differences between the dialect you are learning and the most common forms of the language. You’ll be understood whether you are travelling to France, Morocco or Canada!
And with French being such an international language, you will also find it useful to know in Adelaide. For instance, you can join French-speaking meetup groups, like Adelaide French, to interact with the local bilingual community and improve your foreign language skills at the same time! Just reach out to us at Listen & Learn and soon you’ll be pronouncing all the French dishes on your favourite local menu like a native!
These French lessons fit a broader spectrum and can be useful for those who need different things from the language. Most beginner students will have a handle of survival French by the end of their lesson, which will provide them with enough French to communicate at least at a basic level during short trips to the country, but those who require more would benefit greatly from these sessions. Typical students have been those eager to travel all over the world, those buying overseas property, those with foreign spouses, aficionados of French culture and those who just wish to pass a particular French exam.

These French Lessons are intended for people who really need to learn French to help make that difference in their work. For beginners, it will be useful to learn greetings and basic business etiquette; at higher levels, reading and then writing become more important. Typical students include those involved in import/export, international negotiations and acquisitions, jobseekers in multinational companies where an additional language is required, and those working with international colleagues, academia and government. Even in our most basic lesson for Beginners, students should expect to end the lesson with basic telephone French and French e-mail skills for communication as well as survival French required for short visits to a country.

My Listen & Learn tutor, Yann, made a huge effort to help me understand how the grammar works, and how to say things properly – these aren’t things you can learn from a book
