The reason behind teaching standard french rather then quebec dialect might as well be
the need of identity. I mean what differs Quebec people from other North Americans is
their french heritage and language; so being french is very important to them no? |

Just to be clear, we speak French, but we aren't French... Right? Unless being English is important to Americans and English Canadians.

Sounds like material for a Youtube channel to me.

Actually, while there is next to no written material for QF, there is quite a bit of
stuff of youtube.

You should seriously think about publishing your lessons in a blog (or right here, for
that matter). As a Francophone, I would really enjoy reading those. Plus, I am sure the
many students of French would greatly appreciate it.

Actually, the initial goal was to publish the lessons as a book...
Anyway, here is lesson 1 for anyone interested.

It is wonderful, Arekkusu!
Much better than the usual student exchange kind of lesson 1. And I like the layout with
the exercises, vocabulary etc. I think it could be a really nice full course and it is
very likely to become a very successful book. :-)
When do you plan to publish it?

Good to hear!
Well, I only have 3 lessons written out of the 10 that I planned, and I've been swamped with other projects
lately. Sometime this year would be nice.

Arekkusu, you HAVE to publish this book. That's the funniest dialogue I've ever read in a
textbook. And the content is top-notch!
