What types of material will be learned in a Boston French course?

All languages have their own set of intricacies that can make it difficult to master. French is considered the language of love and shares similarities to English, so understanding English grammar and having a good English vocabulary might help with your French work. However, French does have its own set of grammatical nuances and many rules that a native English speaker may be unfamiliar with. Combining this unfamiliarity of French structure with the sometimes-familiar English counterparts can lead to some confusion. French uses gendered nouns, and the gender of a subject in a sentence will determine how different words within the sentence are conjugated. Learning these rules will involve a lot memorization on your part, but your French instructor will try to help you figure out the best method for learning these complexities. Another tricky part to learning French is figuring out the tenses and how they can make for irregular conjugations. This is another step that your French instructor will urge you to memorize.

Another thing you'll be learning is new accented letters and the different pronunciations of French words. This language involves a system of relative pronouns - the "ce qui, ce que, etc". These pronouns may prove tough to understand at the beginning. There are even intricate complex relative pronouns - the "avec lequel" and more. Even if you have some knowledge of the French language, it can become difficult to remember the function and grammar of all these rules. Your course will go over all of this in multiple discussions so you will have plenty of opportunities to practice. You will learn parts of speech, conversational phrasing, and many more.
