French is one of the most-spoken languages around the world (with more than 300 million speakers) and about 11 million of them reside in Canada. Overall, one in three Canadians can speak French comfortably. Are you moving to Canada or going to visit the country and would like to connect with locals to discover secrets not available to monolingual tourists? Then, contact us at Listen & Learn and we will prepare a course focused on communication.
As an example, our native-speaking instructors will help you understand when to use informal greetings, like salut, or formal ones, like bonjour. Our expert instructors will also give you tips and tricks to become fluent in a short time. For instance, there are many false friends between English and French (words that seem to mean the same but do not). “Envy” in English is a feeling of jealousy, while the Fremch word “envie” means to wish or desire. Similarly, while “bras” in English refers to women’s clothing, “bras” is an arm in French!
Also, you’ll find that being able to speak both French and English in Montreal is an advantage when trying to land a job at the many multinational companies that use French as their working language. Some examples are Sapsol, Dayuse and Morneau Shepell. Learn French and you’ll have an advantage over monolingual candidates when submitting your resume!
And if you are looking to gain more confidence outside of your lessons with us at Listen & Learn, you can always join one of the many language exchange groups in the city, like the Montreal French Language Meetup, when you can put your French skills into practice. What are you waiting for? Contact us today and learn French to get the bilingual job you always wanted!
French lessons of this type are broader and are aimed towards students with a variety of requirements. While all beginner level students will cover survival French - needed for short visits to countries where English isn't widely spoken, or if you wish to 'go local'; those studying French usually go in different directions at this point, depending on what they need. Those who have benefitted from these French classes have been those investing in or buying property overseas, those married to overseas nationals, people setting off on a round-the-world trip, enthusiasts in French culture, and those enthusiastic to pass a specific exam in French.

French lessons of this type are aimed towards those that need to learn French to aid them with their employment. For those just starting out, it is integral to learn basic greetings and business etiquette; and reading and writing can be adopted once the simple precepts are out of the way. Success has come from students who are involved in import/export, international negotiations and acquisitions, those seeking jobs in multinational companies, and those working with foreign colleagues, academia and bureaucracy. Just our most basic beginners lesson will have the student finishing the lesson with basic telephone/e-mail skills in French, as well as survival French should a short stay in the country be needed.
