    Clozemaster is also a good tool to learn vocabulary in context.
    Search for "Le Français Par La Méthode Nature" and you will see why...

    Hey Aron. I’d like to point out. That this is pretty much what you’ve said before about other languages, too. This method is also somewhat similar to what I did in seventh and eighth grade. As a class, we’d put lots. Of vocabulary into our notebooks(audio recorder in my case), read some articles together(as a class or in small groups), and did lots of speaking and writing practice. Of course, being totally blind, my spelling never really got the chance to improve by much. In addition, that was only seventh and eighth grade,though. Ninth grade we had to do more writing than anything else;it was more like the traditional methods. I did acquire. Quite a bit from seventh and eighth grade, though, and my spelling did improve a little in ninth and part of tenth grade(I’m not finished yet.) Please, if you can help me, I’d like to get connected with Chenelle Hancock(she hasn’t been posting on her channel or podcast much.) I’d like to know all the new once’s of French braille(Italian braille too)so I. Can enjoy novels in these languages. Don’t worry about my progress too much, though; I do supplement my class with listening to th news in Frenchto get my input. Now I just need to find someone to output with.

    Merci beaucoup Aaron pour cette vidéo. Je suis content que vous êtes créer cette série sur le français. Vous êtes le meilleur. Je suis seulement utiliser comprehensible input via CZcams avec close caption et conversation via iTalki. J'aime particulièrement la chaine "L'histoire nous le dira" sur CZcams. Trés intèressant.

    maybe I'm wrong but I think the most difficult thing about French might be that French speakers have likely spent a lot more time learning English than you have French and speak English pretty well so they'll just speak English to you.

    Le problème du français c’est sa très grande complexité à l’écrit que n’ont pas l’espagnol et l’italien car tout se prononce. C’est très dur d’écrire un texte sans faire de faute. Je plains vraiment ceux qui essayent de l’apprendre car c’est une horreur même pour nous 😂 Je suis français
