How to keep yourself motivated while learning French?
Join community groups where you will find study partners, take mentorship and coaching to reduce the prep time for exam, Focus on all 4 aspects on regular intervals if you get bored of only doing grammar and vocabulary.
Does Frenchify with Vyom offer Beginner to TEF specific coaching one on one?
I don't personally recommend to go with one on one sessions as it will stretch your learning time to almost double and is exhausting for mind and pockets. With busy schedule of jobs and college in Canada it is better to go with group based flexible programs. You can contact me from Frenchify with Vyom website or Book a meeting to know more.
How to begin learning if I am a beginner and want to self study?
You can register on my website for the Free Beginner Program for a detailed outline via self study method. Books and Resources provided for better understanding.
Do we really need to join coaching or can we do it by ourselves?
It is completely possible to self learn until beginner level but for intermediate levels proper guidance is required specifically for Speaking and Writing modules. Self study takes more time around 6-8 months for A1 A2 level but with coaching and proper structure you can do it within 3 months.
Can we clear French from beginner in 6 months if I study for 12 hours daily?
This is something which is not recommended as it is mentally draining. If you are studying French full-time (No job, no college) you can attain CLB 5-6 depending on your practice.
Can I get bilingual job if I am at B1 level?
Yes, depending on your job profile if it is more into customer service or a middle man job. To be precise they check your language fluency during the interview as well to be sure. Your TEF/TCF/TEFAQ/DELF results will be helpful.
