      Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

      🌆 How do I improve my French in Southend-on-Sea and is possible to go light in terms of commitment?

      Besides self-study with special programs, you have several key choices for learning French interactively in Southend-on-Sea. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, ask about the centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are a little more affordable.) Your 2nd possibility can be local for-profit language academies that are better priced and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, international learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Fourth, you can choose a private French tutor in Southend-on-Sea. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Southend-on-Sea and online French tutors.

      🎟 Is it affordable to learn French and what are the ballpark lesson costs for French tutors?

      For university and college courses you can estimate French course cost by dividing annual tuition by 10 (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the cost of 45-48 course hours each semester. Language schools and independent French tutors charge $30-55 per hourly group lesson, with individual classes starting from $50 or more. Some of the less pricey French tutors can be found online, with costs on Preply averaging 21 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor country of residence, positive reviews and languages the tutor can teach in. Average student satisfaction for French lessons on Preply is 4.92 out of 5 stars.

      📚 What are the requirements for French language skill level to sign up for a course?

      When considering college and learning center classes be prepared demonstrate proof of your current level. Predetermined curriculum classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework level and tests, so research the details in advance. With personal French tutors you can read real feedback for whom the tutor is effective with and which other add-ons they make available (like intermediate level practice, advanced students etc.) For more flexibility, choose a tutor from those who are teaching online.

      🔥 Why is French not easy and are there ways to learn it faster?

      One-size-fits-all language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn French. According to experts, you can gain basic French fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback a few hours a week you will be able to understand everyday phrases, have simple conversations, do most everyday tasks in about a year. Physical language immersion is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a quick and easy way of acquiring the basic knowledge of French. After mastering basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have French tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced speakers.

      🤷 How long does it take to master French?

      Some people brag about their natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in French will require at least 600 hours of study. The required duration of time can differ by a lot depending on your existing level of French or proficiency in other languages in the same group. After alphabet and basic reading it is advised to use the language as often as possible: watch television, write by hand and online using your new language skills, seek native speakers to speak with, try other ways to think and speak in French out loud. If you're struggling when starting a discusssion you can also take conversational French classes online.

      🤳 Can I choose my own French teacher?

      In colleges and universities, there's a chance you can choose your own tutor (from up to a dozen teachers). Online, always! The largest selection of pre-screened French tutors with full profiles and real student reviews is available on online language learning 'supermarkets' like Preply.

      🗓 What time of day and on which days are classes available?

      Colleges usually structure classes twice a week over a semester (15-week period). Language schools offer shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, the number of lessons is really up to you, with early morning, day, evening and night classes available, on weekdays and/or weekends.
