Thank you so much for thoroughly giving links for all of your resources.
That post is one I foresee myself returning to a lot. I am really interested in hunting down the Business French (I have yet to try any Assimil courses) I am around a B2 and have been looking for a course or workbook that would be appropriate. Also I am interested in taking a look at the FSI phonoloy as I'm definitely lacking a systematic understanding of pronunciation/spelling. I feel like this needs to get stickied somehow! Any interest in being captain of the French team? 2 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

Hey Luke,
Congrats on a really thorough year. In the 2nd French team you've been one of a handful of us who has been very consistent all year round. You're also the one i'd say who's closest in study mannerisms to mine. I'm not sure that's such a good thing, but I feel an affinity with your approach as like you I like to use a lot of courses. I hope 2015 is just as good for you. I'm sure you're noticing how far you've come. Good work! PM 2 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

Thanks Peter, I enjoy reading about your progress as welll. I still remember your twenty minute or so experience talking with an older French couple. I may not be clear on the details, but the feeling of accomplishment was impossible to miss. Also, you've sat and passed a CEFR test, which is really awesome. I also notice similarities in our approaches. We are the tortoises in this race of hares. Well, at least I am. 2 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

Other ideas for micro-challenges...
Petit Nicolas cartoon marathon. Greatest book read and speak. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

That's dealer's choice. You get to decide. It means read the book out loud and say it like you really mean it, or are telling a story. I've been thinking these "micro-challenges" could be lined up. E.G. watch cartoons for a day or an hour, then if you feel like switching, just note where you left off. Besides reducing boredom, this also allows for rotation in approach. Say I include transcribing NFWE in the list. Cycling through several activities, watching/listening, reading/speaking, listening/transcribing, over time, seems like it would sink deeper into the memory banks than a single marathon run at one thing. It also allows more flexibility to "change things up". 2 persons have voted this message useful |
