Like all of the Guides at About, I'm a real person. Please do not email me with questions about learning French, grammar, vocabulary, books, software, jobs, or schools - if you can't find the answer on my site, I probably don't know. Post your questions on the forum where hundreds of members - including native French speakers, students, and teachers - will be able to answer.  

If you would like to send me comments, link or lesson suggestions, or a review request, you can .
