8-Hr crash course for travelers

Over the years I have heard countless cries for help from people who wanted to go to a Francophone country but didn't speak a word and anticipated all sorts of frustrations. But when you have the right method it can be easy and fun at the same time!

With this course you will be able to strike up a simple conversation, get along without an interpreter, and be more aware of what is going on around you. 

Using rythmic oral exercises, you will learn the mechanics of rapid spoken language. By learning how to reproduce the flow of fast speech, you also learn to understand it.
