how can i improve my french language skills?

mitchchan asked:


I’ve been living in Canada for more than 10 years now and took french in high school and in college but unfortunately never had the chance to practice it. This year, I’ve gone back to college to improve my skills this time around. Can you offer me tips or suggestions how I could get better at my French language?

    The best way is immersion learning…

    Go online to international voice chats and talk it up…

    By the way, why French? Don’t you know they are the weakness of the western cultural societies…..

    YES THEY ARE!

    previous answer is vain and POOR - only poor people still speak about France this way - shalom

    listen to the radio on Internet - Radio France International
    every day
    look at TV5 satellite - excellent subjects
    work on vocabulary every day -
    write as much as possible - and find somebody to correct

    to speak is the result of your work - if your fundaments are poor, you’ll speak poorly

    I also live in Canada and i’m in french immersion in high school so i can speak it quite well. if you have cable, CBC has a completely french channel that has current, decent shows (just for laughs, desperate housewives, cartoons) and CBC radio also has a french station i believe. If you live in or near Quebec, spending time talking to people there/ observing things would be a great help. if you’re going back to college why not take a french course? lots of universities have beginner french courses, and some have ones designed so you can do university in french being an anglophone (U of Montreal). Of course, going to France would always help you improve your skills in no time! even just going to St-Pierre et Miquelon (a ferry ride from NFLD) would help seen as it is a part of France and everyone speaks french and usually not english at all. good luck!
