Essential Resources before travelling to France

Planning a trip to France? 

You've already booked your French classes - great! You may also need: 



A map of France  (this one takes pride of place in my French studio)


 


A map of the region you plan on visiting, such as the French Riviera






A pocket size map of Paris (essential in my opinion)






And a phrase book to have something to say in every situation! 

French chat and coffee class

Are you a French book addict?

An ideal way to learn, and improve in, French is via immersion. There are endless possibilities to do so: movies, French-themed outings, music, and books!

Did you know that The Book Depository, for instance, stocks a large range of French books, such as novels, picture books for younger learners, as well as textbooks and dictionaries?
