French Sounds Beautiful And So Can You!


Learning a new language is intimidating. I get you!

You know you want to speak French but you just don’t know where to begin.

And what if people don't understand your accent or you can't get the pronunciation right?

And of course, you don’t want to be wasting your valuable time trying to learn French the wrong way!

You need your very own program, showing you how to speak properly, step by step. This is really what works well when learning a language.

Remember, at the end of the day, it's about having conversations and learning French the right way so you are not afraid to speak to people.


How to have the right accent?


Simple! First, by learning all the French sounds. Then, by learning letter combinations and the sounds that they make.

But I hear you: you need an easy way because the French accent is difficult.

That’s what I am here for!

In this course, we will combine word decoding and phonetics so you can have that really great French accent.

Would you like to...

  • Travel to a French city and tell the taxi driver where you're going, with a French Accent?

  • Speak to new people and exchange names, emails, addresses?

  • Go to a restaurant and read unfamiliar words on the menu?

  • Sound like a native, make that perfect French "U" sound, or even that scary "R" sound?

  • Know how to do those weird (oh yes!) nasal sounds?

  • Know the most important French Liaisons so you don't sound like a beginner?

  • Recognize masculine and feminine words?

  • Just be more confident?

    These are a few of the reasons why I made "Read & Speak".


    • So you can learn the French accent, in the comfort and privacy of your own home. (Trust me, everyone prefers to practice that "funny R sound" when no one is listening!)

    • Step by step, with easy and short videos, you will learn individually all of the 36 French sounds.

    • You will become familiar with all the French Letter Combinations. Doing that, reading will become so much easier and those Silent Letters won't be such a mystery anymore.

    • By learning how to associate the letters to the sounds, you will soon master the French Code and you will pronounce everything correctly and beautifully.
