The fastest way is immersion.  Surround yourself with French speakers and only speak French.  Carry a translating book and dictionary, and look it up if you don't know it.\n\nI guess the French CD's at the bookstore are okay, but I don't know anyone who has learned a language that way.

hey!\n\nIt really isn't that difficult, the grammar will eventually come to you easily, and then after that it's just a matter of vocabulary. The more vocab you learn, the better you will be. It's as simple as that..\n\nI drastically improved my french by reading newspapers and news magazines..every time you find a new word, look it up..when you come across it again you will feel really smug that u know it..and that is exactly how you remember it...\n\nanyway, i hope this helps..\n\ngood luck! bisous x

Try about.com .. they have information about nearly everything. I use it as a reference for French. Or you could buy one of those language learning CD's, but those are expensive. One easy way to practice is to talk here, like people said, or to get a penpal who speaks English and write back and forth..maybe one who speaks your language. You'll both benefit that way. Good luck : )

Dinh,\n The best way to gain knowledge about spoken languages is to listen to them. If you are around English speakers enough (I assume that that is what ielts exam is for - anglais) I learned so much more quickly when I listened to native speakers. There is no way to substitute that experience. If you cannot be around english speakers, buy a tape of french - english translation.

Immersion in the language, living in another culture is, hands-down, the best way.  It's also the most disruptive to your life, and few can do it.\n\nIf you're learning on your own, some general tips for learning languages:\n\n1. Look at people's reviews on Amazon to determine what are some of the best courses.\n\n2. Go to the library and check out different types of courses, and see what works for you best.\n\n3. Put aside 30 - 60 minutes per day and study some each day.\n\n4. If you get discouraged, take a couple of days off, but set your next time to study and stick to it. If you go too long (say a week) between study sessions, you'll start forgetting.\n\n5. Go into the experience realizing that you'll make lots of mistakes, don't worry about them and keep going.\n\n6. Try to find someone better than you in the language to speak with. You can't learn to speak a language without speaking it. If you're trying to learn with someone else who is also learning, you'll lead each other into learning errors.

Hi! I also live in Quebec, in a francophone city and French is my first language. First of all, as someone pointed, reading the dictionary won't help you learn the language. Have you considered taking private lessons? It really helps when someone only has to focus on your difficulties to make you progress. Watching television in French is also a good thing, though it might be frustrating not to understand what people say, at least you hear some French. From time to time, watch a movie in English subtitled in French, or the other way around. even a french movie with French subtitles is a good way to lear, you get to hear AND see! Look for language schools and conversation groups in the phone book. Oh, reading the paper could also be good. Eventually, you'll be able to recognized the most frequently used words.\nDo you live near Montreal? Quebec city?\nGo see web sites from universities around you, most of them have programs in French as a Second Language. Like http://www.fep.umontreal.ca/langues/eng/coursfrint.html\nAnd you can always try to look for the basics online!\nGood luck!

first of all, are you a visual person or an audio person? If you learn by visual, reading or watching movie (in your language) with subtitle (in the language you want to learn) will help.\n\nIf you learn by audio, listen to the songs (the language you want to learn) and find out the translated lyrics. Another way is to have someone to speak the language to. That helps a lot.

The best way is to talk with someone who speaks that language.\n\nOther things you can do:\n\nWatch a language DVD/video.  The ones we like are the Muzzy series and also the Standard Deviants series.  For French, there is a great series of videos called "French in Action."\n\nYou can also try listening to the Berlitz audio tapes.  We have used those in both German and Italian.  You can listen while driving/riding in the car or while relaxing or whatever.  they really are great for learning pronunciation.\n\nYou can also enroll in a language class but that would be the most expensive.\n\nIf you are on a low budget, try getting audio and video tapes at your local library.\n\nOr ask friends or family who have taken a language class. Most likely they have materials collecting dust that they will give you.

Here's a tip.  Go to France on an exchange program.  You will learn more French in one month than in a year of study.  Check around.  There are some summer programs that are not that expensive.
