Learning French On The Run

When my husband found out he was being transferred to his company’s Paris office, I knew I would have to entertain there.  The problem was that I didn’t speak a word of French.

So I went online and found down loadable course which included audio tapes and material I could burn to CD.  Or as, my son put it, I ran around with my “learn french course“.

He was right.  For three months I never left the house without some practice material.  But it paid off.

By the time I was introduced to my husband’s French co-workers, I was able to converse quite comfortably. 

Not bad for a frantic soccer Mom of four, I thought.
