Lexi is a good teacher. She talks very clearly and a little slower for beginners and corrects almost every mistake explaining to Xiaoma. She encourages and doesn't let him get stuck when he doesn't know. Xiaoma is already tired after that many hours and I'm sure he learned more from that teacher. Also, the fact to having a neutral French accent is good for learners. Nothing against other French-speaking countries or accents, I lived in Quebec and in Africa. Even for French, if you learn with a NOrthern or Southern accent of Marseille, it will be a bit more complicated to switch to neutral French

What you find over time especially when one speaks two languages well (I am a Shona native and was fluent in English at 5 years of age) when one language is stronger than the other, the brain will look for words in the stronger language hence the mixing of languages. Olly Richards spoke about this in one of his videos (Spanish and Portuguese) and he remedied this having actual language exchanges or conversations with natives where he forced himself to switch between Spanish and Portuguese until his brain got comfortable and this took a while but his brain managed to adjust. Which is why they always encourage people to get to a high level in a language (C1) before starting another one

@@Pookiebearhungry Sometimes, I explain it to my friends like, "Imagine you just learned BBC English, pass out, and when you wake up, you're in some remote Scottish village and have to ask a nearby elderly farmer for directions home." To be fair, some people have much thicker accents than others - my native language is French, and even I often had trouble understanding my great uncle's combination of thick Gaspé accent and mumbling. The other part is that while non-Québecois French speakers usually understand formal Québec French without too much difficulty, casual Québec French likes to drop a significant number of syllables, and sometimes modify the remaining ones a bit. So you'll start with something they'll teach FSL speakers, like 'Je ne le sais pas,' and then right off the bat the locals will drop 'Je ne le' and then pronounce the remaining 'sais pas' as 'shaypa.'

This is a really difficult challenge, French is indeed a Romance language - and has some similarities with Spanish or Italian - but with a more complex grammar - and spelling words is also a complete nightmare, even for most of French people. Learning French only with oral conversation is really difficult, especially if you choose teachers from various regions of the world. I would not recommend this at all for a beginner: the pronunciation is different and also sometimes the grammar. For example Alexandre started his questions with "As-tu...", which is completely common in oral conversations in Quebec, but a speaker from Europe would rather say "Est-ce que tu as...", even if both are grammatically correct in France ("As-tu" is more frequently used in written standard French). So if you learn French with teachers from different areas, the risk is mixing local grammar and pronunciation rules. So I would not recommend that until you reached at least level B1. For beginners, the best is to stay with teachers from France, Belgium or Switzerland - Belgian and Swiss French are very close to standard French so that wouldn't be an issue - or with teachers from Canada if you're from NA and plan to interact mostly with French Canadian speakers.

It bothered me so much that none of the teachers tried to teach Xiaoma the basic sounds of French until Samuel!! It is the most basic stuff to learn, and you'll only be able to communicate if your pronunciation is good enough. He was one of the best ones, correcting the pronunciation and translating new sentences word for word, very didactic. But besides that, awesome livestream!! Really interesting to watch your progress after each class throughout the TWELVE hours hahah French is an incredible language.

Yes I noticed that as well, It was a relief when Samuel came in and brought that up. Wish he had gone through all of the sounds. Not that it really seemed to make a difference for Xiaoma, no offense lol. I am brand new learning French too but I was thinking if he says que as “KAY” instead of “KUH” after being corrected for the 6000th time i’m going to pull my hair out… EDIT: I’m now at the end with the word “famille” and I actually think he may have a learning disability.

However, I will say that what I enjoyed about this video was exactly how UNSTRUCTURED it was. Just people chatting and learning french in whatever natural way takes their fancy.

I'm so here for learning French with you! Actually saves me a lot of hours with a tutor as I think for beginners in a language people usually ask the same things over and over again. I learned Portuguese and Russian on my own now I'm starting French!

More clarification on using de DE vs À De = made of, consisting of À = having the flavour, some of Une barre de chocolat. The entire bar is made of chocolate. Une quiche aux trois fromages. The quiche has the flavour of three cheeses but there are other ingredients too. La glace au chocolat. Chocolate ice cream. La tarte aux pommes. Apple pie. Le jus d’orange. Orange juice. Le beurre de cacahuètes. Peanut butter.

The basics of French is rather easy to learn but to get it down it can take years. Just knowing the gender of each word to know if you have to use "le" or "la" takes ages. I'm Flemish (north part of Belgium - Dutch) I was raised by bilingual Dutch/French with a Walloon (south part of Belgium, hench French) mother and even after 53 years I still screw up the le's and la's. We do however teach our children Dutch, French, English and German in school before they are 16... The Flemish have been invaded by just about everyone over the centuries so we like to prepare our kids just in case. :D :D :D

I'm an immigrant from Moldova to Quebec and have frequented high school in Quebec. I'm working now and I noticed that sometimes even native Quebecers are confused about which article to use for certain words. It's rare, but it happens and it just shows how irregular gender in French can be sometimes. It is generally easy to tell by the ending of the word, but there are a number of exceptions that make you always second guess if you remember it right.

normally bonjour is pronounced like this in phonetics: bɔ̃ʒuʁ but often I will hear it prononced like this: boʒuʁ. I think ɔ̃ is much harder to pronounce than phonetic "o" because the mandible is kind of backing up from the the plane of the face and the mouth opens a bit more which is hard to do for anglophones.
