i learned it by living there from 14 to 20 because of circumstances. but integration (especially in a non-international school) is the reason I was able to become fluent at that age

I must admit that at first I didn’t enjoy my French class (le prof parle trop lentement), but it’s starting to grow on me! I’ve adopted the mindset that learning does not have to be the fast, competitive process I experienced at school. Language comes slowly and there is something to learn from everyone.

tv shows!!! i can't stress this enough, watching people engage in the language helps so much. after doing french for years and graduating with a delf b2, i give all credit to the fact that i was put in an immersive environment where french was always spoken around me. you can start with children's shows like Téléfrançais, and then move to your favourite show dubbed etc. that being said, nothing beats talking in french...so if all else fails, meet some french speakers to chat with, or maybe temporarily move to france 😄
i wish you the best of luck!

Tbh my formal french lessons were a lot more recent than my formal english ones, sometimes i’ll throw some french phrases in there if i’m not confident about english grammar rules

married by 25, house by 28, kids by 30, business by 32. who cares. youre not a child anymore. you don’t have to hit milestones. that’s the whole thing about being an adult, you don’t have to give yourself age deadlines. let serendipity do its thing. what is for you will find you.
your journey is YOUR JOURNEY. how boring would life be if we were all setting the same goals and standards for each other? just keep moving forward. keep doing what YOU believe is best for YOU. keep growing, keep learning. time is going to pass regardless. but don’t ever let someone or society push their timeline onto you.

i don’t care what we’re doing. we could be sipping tea together. reading on two separate ends of the couch. hiking in silence. just existing and being together
