What you'll be able to do

Conversational French is for learners who understand more than they can say. Each lesson opens with a discussion prompt and ends with a debate, story or negotiation. The grammar you need is taught inside those tasks, not before them. You leave able to hold your own in a dinner party, a phone call and a disagreement.
