A challenge

I met with my French tutor yesterday and in our conversation I asked her how long she thought it would take for me to be fluent.  She stated that depending on my dedication and progress, she thought one year was reasonable.  I think this sounds fair, but of course the competitor inside of me has been challenged to prove her wrong.  Bon chance!

  1. Hey consular hopeful! Thanks for stopping by my blog. I've never taken the phone test, but if my training at FSI is any indication, I suggest getting in the habit of regularly reading and watching the news at tv5.org (Informations - Le JT & Le JT Afrique) as well as rfi.fr (Langue Francais - Journal en France Facile). Every teacher I've had at FSI has stressed this. If you're looking for more resources, feel free to be in touch!
