Hi all, i'm new to FSI, though i have gone through Pimsleurs 3 levels and Michel Thomas. How long should this (French Revised) take, and how much a day should i be aiming for? Obviously, the more the better, but i just want to get a feel for what to expect? Each unit, are you expected to go through it once, or do they recommend numberous times?
At the end of it all, what level of French would i be at? What level has it put other people at?
Thanks
Hero

Each unit will take considerable time. You should be able to completely understand the dialogues and also be able to produce the responses to the drills without delaying or needing to pause the audio. It's also advisable to repeat the units at a later time (e.g. halfway through the course start again at the first unit and review it).
I don't think it takes you as far as the Spanish course, but it's still very thorough and it covers just about all the grammar you'll need to know for basic to intermediate fluency. |

Thanks... for me, the most important area is to learn more grammar points and vocabulary. I am looking forward to seeing how effective this programs drill methods are.
At the moment, i'm doing the first unit, and its very straight fwd, considering i've done Pimsleur/Michel Thomas... but its great to hammer in the basics (and even with the first unit i've picked up another couple words!
Thanks for the feedback

My brother can my daughter an assignment. He is learning French and asked her to get these songs, which she now has on our computer and on a CD, and transfer them to his MP3 player. We have been working on it for three weeks now, on and off, and are unable to do so. Can you please let me know how to transfer them to his player. I even called a computer geek and he cannot figure it out.
Thank you for your time and cooperation. Mary Kay kgprincess@juno.com |

The mp3 files that you download here are no different than any other mp3 file you have, so you can use the same software you use for your music. The process to copy the mp3 files to your particular player will vary, depending on which mp3 player you have.
The pdf student text files that you download here cannot be loaded to an mp3 player. They must be used with pdf reader software, such as Adobe Acrobat Reader.
