I've been there - and noted them down for you
After the monsoon of 2016, I moved to France and realised how ill equipped I was, to handle my new life as a student in Lille.
The following months had me trying every trick in the book to nail the French language. I had an ambitious target - I wanted to sound native.
After over a hundred google searches on every combination of 'how to learn French', I was finally getting somewhere.
In just over a year of moving to France, my French sounded native and I had the confidence to ask what a word meant. You can achieve this too. This was my loose process ➡️
