This is an excellent textbook for anyone wishing to build a solid foundation in French. I use it for a French I course at Harvard, and I really enjoy it. Everything in this book is well-organized and follows a natural progression—from letters and numbers to vocabulary, listening, sentence building, and grammar. It focuses on real language skills rather than just memorizing travel or phrasebook expressions. The accompanying videos and listening activities add helpful reinforcement, and the explanations are clear and beginner-friendly. Overall, this book is easy to understand and is a great choice for anyone starting their French learning journey.
