This checklist will help you to learn French by providing a logical study order for my
French for beginners lessons. The references to months and weeks don't have to mean anything as the lessons are self-paced. You may spend as much or as little time mastering the material given for each week as you like - two or ten or twenty hours on each lesson, depending on your needs and abilities. Each week of lessons builds on the preceding weeks, so before moving on to the next week, be sure that you
- recognize and can use the new vocabulary
- can pronounce the new letter(s) fairly accurately
- understand the grammar points
- can conjugate the verbs
If you need help at any time, post a message on the
French for Beginners forum. Someone will be happy to try to help you to understand whatever it is you are having trouble with.
You may find it helpful to print the checklist so that you can keep track of your progress. Also, try taking my
French proficiency test before you start and again at the end to see how much you learn.
