Why LFBP, rather than another means of learning French?

There are many, many ways you can learn French. The method we use at LFBP, however, is unlike what you see in other courses. We take very specific, real-life situations, and examine the vocabulary and expressions you'll need to deal with those situations. We don't try to have our listeners wade through lists of vocabulary which, by definition, are unintuitive. After all, we don't communicate via lists, nor should we learn by them. Consider some of the feedback we have received to see what others think of LFBP.

Maybe you just want to have someone take a photo for you?...

visite to Paris image

Or, speak a little about a trip to Paris?...

swamped with work image

Or say you're swamped with work?...

These are just some of the topics we study in LFBP.

LFBP deals with practical, day-to-day language.

Have you sometimes wished you could say something right now in French? Maybe you just want to greet a French business acquaintance? Or say a few words about the game on TV last night? Or explain that you can't make it to a party on Saturday? Or ask someone in the street to take a photo of you and your friend? Or ask how someone's kids are getting on in school? These are the very real-life situations we deal with in LFBP. Not only these, but we actively encourage our listeners to suggest lesson topics to us so we can get cracking on new lessons.

LFBP represents extremely good value.

Many commercial French courses are very expensive. Some run to hundreds of dollars. That's a lot of money to invest in a learning programme which may not yield the results you expect. With LFBP, however, if you were to buy all our content right now, it would cost just a fraction of what other courses cost. In fact, our lessons - at their most expensive - cost no more than 1 dollar and are even less if you buy many lessons.

LFBP has been designed by teachers, not marketing men.

LFBP was conceived by teachers with years of experience at the blackboard. (At least they were blackboards when we started teaching; we are glad to say that teaching technologies have improved nowadays.) We do not pretend that our lessons are a 'magic bullet'. You cannot take an LFBP 'tablet' one night and wake up the next morning a fluent French speaker. (There are some course which almost make such promises.) Learning French takes hard work but, with LFBP, we present thorough and methodical explanations which will allow you to progress quickly as long as there is consistent input on your part.
