Learn French Fast - Can someone tell me a good method so I could learn French fast and well?

- I learned a lot in 8 months!
Before that, the only words that I knew in french were Merci and beaucoup (and I didn't know what beaucoup meant lol). I looked over the internet and followed a lot of free courses and got me through the basics of present tense conjugation. Then I bought a book called "The Ultimate French Review and Practice" The book is for Intermediate and Advanced Learners, but you can still use it. The explinations are in detail and they are great. They have exercises that you can do and the answers to the exercises are in the back of the book.

I'd suggest that you buy this book, for me it was about $15, and it was worth it. Just work your way through it, skip around. I'd suggest you learn all of the tenses first. (In this book it teaches the Imperfect and Plus-que-parfait versions of the Subjunctive... a little birdly* ;) told me that no one ever uses these tenses, so you can skip them or learn them if you want.)

For prounciation I used Skype and talked to people around the world who's native language is French. I also use Tex's French Grammar on the internet, they explain everything in great detail and they have downloadable audio files for everything that they cover. Their website is:

The site is very very useful!

Good Luck!
