Love it!,
By Bill Fold "Bill Fold" (columbus, ms United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Une Semaine à Paris - A traveler's guide with a novel twist (Book + 3 Audio Cd Set) (Paperback)
I teach French at Mississippi State University and I have enjoyed Camille's books and have introduced them to my classes. In addition to her great materials, she is very easy to contact and get personal help from. It's great for people that do not have the opportunity to have contact with a native speaker! Her podcasts are amazing!!!

Improve your French while planning your next visit to Paris.,

This review is from: Une Semaine à Paris - A traveler's guide with a novel twist (Book + 3 Audio Cd Set) (Paperback)
Camille Chevalier Karfis has created a unique guide to Paris. Without omitting the best known sights, she also writes persuasively of others that are unknown to many tourists, but which certainly merit a visit. But beyond this, she has also addressed the needs of visitors who want to improve their French before they make the journey, by providing an engaging story in 17 chapters about a French-speaking couple from the U.S. enjoying a week in Paris. The vocabulary, grammar,and delivery begin at a very easy-going level but become progressively more demanding as the story continues; nevertheless, the slope is very gentle, and someone who can only manage Chapter 1 at first should be able to progress before long through the remaining chapters. The complete text and a translation are always available to those who can't grasp everything on a first listening. Those with intermediate skills, who will understand the material more quickly, can gain useful speaking practice by echoing each phrase - the relaxed pace always allows this. Even advanced speakers are likely to find the travel information of interest (and they might want to use the story on friends or family members).
Camille (at learnfrenchinboston.com) is evidently a very talented and inventive teacher, and has managed to break out of the inefficient traditional classroom routines that leave so many students stranded when they arrive in France, no matter how many tests they have passed. I can warmly recommend "Une semaine à Paris" to students and teachers alike.

Finally truly "understand" French!,
This review is from: Une Semaine à Paris - A traveler's guide with a novel twist (Book + 3 Audio Cd Set) (Paperback)
Perfect for anyone wanting to understand daily French conversations! (and even be able to speak as well). No more quizzical looks when a shop owner asks if you need assistance. No more gesturing wildly to get your point across. This book, and especially listening to Camille's CD's over and over again, will truly enhance your next trip to France. There are so many ways to learn here - try NOT reading the book but rather just LISTEN to the CDs - amazing French education tool! Nothing like it on the market! Superb technical quality!
