I am not sure which course to use for french. I keep changing my mind and I need to decide before 2014.

Assimil is a solution, but I have never been able to finish an assimil yet.

A great greek course I have at home is another option, however it's huge and for total beginners.

Do I need to invent a personal course, focusing on grammar at first maybe and then go straight to composition and french writing? I'd love that, but how do I do it?

How do I devise a personal plan of action? Any ideas?

I have never been able to finish an Assimil course either - but I know a lot of people swear by it. Would it be a possibility to take the grammar only from the Greek course for beginners, and then do the full lessons once you get to unknown vocabulary?

That's what I'll probably do with french. A DIY course that will involve readers, a good grammar book, a good vocabulary and full immersion:) . Thanks Cristina.

Il me semble que tu as déjà un assez bon niveau de français, vu que tu es capable de comprendre un film tel que "Molière," alors je crois que commencer tout au début d'un cours d'Assimil t'ennuyerait vite. Je me trouve dans la même difficulté que toi : comment s'améliorer une fois qu'on est "intermédiaire" ? Quoi faire ? La bonne voie n'est pas toujours évidente.

Merci d'avoir mentionné "L'ombre d'un doute", qui a l'air intéressant. Voici une chaîne YouTube avec une liste de toutes les videos : lien

C'est vrai que je comprends bien, mais s'exprimer est autre chose. En particulier ecrire me fait vraiment peur!

Si on utilise les "readers"? Rien que francais, sauf peut etre la grammaire? Pas d'anglais. Et aussi ecrire tous les jour en francais un journal?

Oui, je crois que tu as quelques bonnes idées. Moi je ne trouve pas que les explanations de grammaire soient difficiles à suivre, peut-être parce que les termes grammaticaux en français sont presque identiques à ceux d'anglais. :-)

Ton log est exemplaire, je veux dire, car tu utilize francais toujours. C'est une tres bonne idee. Il faut trouver les accents dans mon keybord!

Si tu es sur Windows, il suffit de modifier les préférences de "Regions / Languages" dans ton "Control Panel" (ce que tu cherches se trouvera sous "Keyboard" ou "Input Methods", je crois).

[Hahaha, cette espèce d'idiote Internet Explorer a mis "churches" au lieu du "cherches" que j'ai écrit. Faut enlever les autocorrections...]
