Bonjour ! 👋

It's time to get all mindful ('Ommmm', 🧘🏿 🧘🏿‍♂️ ) with the present tense in French. Is that my tummy rumbling? There's nothing in the house but bread & water 🥖 🚰... but that will keep me alive...(angels sing in the background) 👼🏿  👼🏿  👼🏿  ah ah ah ahhhh! 

Being present in French grammar, rather than freeing you from the past and the future actually opens their doors big and wide so you can clearly see them for what they are! Behold - the past... behold - the future! 👼🏿  👼🏿  👼🏿  Ah ah ah ahhhh! 

French verbs in the past and the future are all about the endings baby. But the stems 🌷 are firmly rooted in the present. 🧘🏿‍♂️ 🎁 🧘🏿 

Once you know your French verbs, verbs, verbs, verbs, verbs in the present tense - you need fear the past 🏛️ nor the future 🔮  no more!

• 'I have tried various French teaching methods - books, Cds and online - but the quality of Cecile's videos surpasses them all. They are bright, engaging and funny and use all kinds of imagery to make words and phrases stick to your brain. She pauses for you to have a go, then builds on each theme, taking turns with you to repeat and expand your vocabulary. The videos also work well as audio, useful on car journeys. These are very polished and thoughtfully produced and make some of the big-name products seem so dull!'  Steve Ellis
