Teach French confidently with stories, whatever your expertise
What is the best way to use stories to learn French?
Children love to listen to stories. So, stories are an ideal way to get children excited about learning French!
Here are 7 reasons to use stories to teach French. A good French story will:
- Provide an enjoyable, stress-free way to learn the rhythm of the language, intonation and pronunciation
- Introduce children to sentence structures in natural way, so they learn to phrase things as a native speaker would
- Make it easy to present written and spoken language together to show the links between them
- Enable key vocabulary to be learned in context
- Empower children to create their own sentences
- Combine naturally with drama and role-play
- And, best of all, will engage children and make them want to learn French.
