What You’ll Achieve at A1 (Beginner) Level

At first, I couldn’t speak French or only knew a few words. Now, I’m gaining confidence. Pronunciation is still challenging, and I speak slowly, but I can be understood if someone listens carefully and speaks slowly. It’s hard and tiring, but I’m happy to start using French.

How I have to say it

Use Simple Sentences: “J’ai 28 ans.” | “Je voudrais un croissant, s’il vous plaĂźt.” | “OĂč est la gare Montparnasse ?”
Improve Pronunciation: Start speaking French with better fluency, even if it’s challenging (because you have to repeat, to talk slowly).
Build Basic Vocabulary: It can be frustrating, but it’s just the beginning! 😊
Learn Standard, Polite, and Colloquial French: To feel comfortable in various situations (because the same person can use all three at the same time).
