Songs
La Frontière Française loves singing and believes that through song one is better able to understand the connotative value and literal meaning of words. If you are a singer, just sing along and eventually, accompanied with more learning, the lyrics will make sense.
Here are a couple of songs La Frontière fancies:
Online Lessons
Alexa is a very good online tutor! She breaks down her lessons in a way that makes learning the concept much more simple. I highly recommend everyone watches her videos as a supplement to our learning.
French Mini Series
La Frontière believes experiencing a language in an organic, natural setting greatly enhances ones understanding. French and English are very similar in many ways but at the same time are very different in just as many. To convey the meaning of a sentence in English might be said one way while in French the same meaning would be said differently. This is why La Frontière emphasizes natural exposure. One may not understand what is being said, but one may understand what is happening and may make the connection; ultimately learning the language. This is organic learning.
This mini series is completely in French. The actors do not hold back when speaking which may make understanding a little more difficult for beginners. In the lower right-hand corner of the video is a settings icon. One can turn on the subtitles and read the French.
Do not get frustrated or feel it is pointless to watch a video you do not understand 80% of! The 20% you do understand is enough. Once one has a strong understanding of that 20%, soon enough one would understand 30, then 40, and eventually 100% of the video! Do not get frustrated or feel it is pointless! No one learned their first language in a day; or even a year.
