Learn French: Grammar Workbook + Textbook for Adult Beginners: Master French with 15-Minute Lessons, Practical Exercises, and Essential Grammar Rules to Live By (Easy French)

Finding the time to learn a new language is a challenge for me. But I really wanted to learn French. So, I looked for something that can accommodate learners with tight schedules. Then, I stumbled upon this book. It was advertised for busy adults. That's what drew me in.When this book arrived, it took me a couple of weeks to finish it. I was THAT busy. And now, I just finished reading it, and let me tell you about my experience. Let's first talk about the content. Honestly, this book covers the basic essentials in learning French, including grammar rules, everyday words, and more. This book is really great for beginners. Each lesson are concise, I'm not sure if they are indeed 15 minutes, but it's easy and quick to read each one. The approach is engaging, it doesn't feel too "school-like". It's not boring at all. Moreover, there are also some exercises, worksheets, and flashcards that helped me practice my French writing skills. I must say, these exercises have been really effective in helping me study for long-term retention.One thing I loved about this book is it's completely practical. It doesn't waste time on unnecessary words and phrases, but just teaches you actual words that you can use for everyday use. As a beginner, I don't want to get down with the complicated stuff. I wanted to just enjoy and familiarize with the basics. Furthermore, I loved the cultural insights part of this book. I didn't expect that this book would also discuss the difference between European and South American French. Who knew it could be that different? I thought all French-speaking regions speaks the same level of French. Now, I know more. For that, I'm truly impressed.What sets this workbook apart from all its other competitors, is the exclusive additional content. Imagine, you just paid for a book. But, you get to receive an audiobook, ebooks, pronunciation audios, words and phrase list, and more? It's worth more than what you paid for! I'm not even done checking out all of them.However, there are some things that could be improved in this book. First of all, the content itself is excellent. But, a more in depth discussion about tricky grammar rules and concept could be more beneficial, especially for beginners like myself. I also can't help but notice some irregular formatting issues that makes some sections a bit distracting to read. I hope these things could be resolved next version. I'd still buy it again if they do.

The emphasis is on grammar here. The layout within each chapter is helpful. The text is conversational and easy to follow with tips on how to remember French words and phrases. There’s a “Practice” quiz at the end of each section to let you know what you need to review.

Love this book! Very structured with exercises at end of each chapter (answers in the back). Will be speaking French in no time! Especially love the bonus content!

Compact and pretty thorough workbook. I like it! I definitely think it's worth checking out.Things are set up really well so that you can be up to speed in 30 days.

I like it so far. The grammar is explained well and the audio files help with pronunciation.

The first 2 lessons so far are good. The quizzes help.

Easy to follow. Great practice exercises

I'm only a couple chapters into it but so far I've been really happy with it. It's a really good compliment to any language apps. I use Duolingo and it's great for vocab but it isn't very good at explaining the rules of grammar. This book has make clear concepts that I failed to grasp with a year of the language app alone.
