Publisher's summary

***For high-beginner to low-intermediate learners***

Master French word gender in 30 days, with this innovative, story-based immersion method. Just listen to one chapter per day, complete the exercises, and watch as one of the trickiest parts of becoming fluent in French falls into place and improves your speech without a hitch!

Most French students try to learn French grammar through rules and rote memorization, especially while trying to use the correct word gender in the right situation and context! This doesn't work, and is extremely stressful for you as a learner. Why? Because there are lots of so-called "rules" to learn and it's impossible to hold them all in your head at the same time while you're speaking. It's also not a natural approach...native speakers don't learn the language with rules and memory tricks, after all!

With 30-Day Mastery: Fearless French Gender, you'll learn through example and context, just like native speakers do! The magic of learning through story is that your main focus is actually not on memorizing anything...you concentrate on understanding and enjoying the story! As you're listening, you will find that the different word genders, and the instances in which they are used, will begin to lodge themselves subconsciously in your brain. It doesn't happen right away—in fact it may take a couple of weeks for you to feel the real effects. But by the end of this book, you'll have a native-like command of French word gender that will amaze you and your friends!

Not yet convinced? Here are all the features you will find in this book:

  • Short chapters of 300 words each—just listen to one chapter a day for 30 days!
  • A text designed specifically for students at high-beginner, low-intermediate level
  • A detailed language overview so you can review and quickly understand the difficult parts of the story
  • Short daily exercises to practice your new knowledge as you go
  • Bilingual word lists to quickly look up new vocabulary

Incomplete as audiobook

The description of the book says:

Short chapters of 300 words each—just listen to one chapter a day for 30 days!
A text designed specifically for students at high-beginner, low-intermediate level
A detailed language overview so you can review and quickly understand the difficult parts of the story
Short daily exercises to practice your new knowledge as you go
Bilingual word lists to quickly look up new vocabulary

Short chapters - yes.
A text designed for A2-B1 - not so sure, there is some pretty advanced vocabulary in here. But all I'm doing is listening.
Detailed language overview - not at all. There may be one in the printed or digital book, but the audio is just listening to each chapter.
Short daily exercises - nope, not in the audiobook
Bilingual word lists - nope, not in the audiobook.

This might be really fantastic if you have a physical or digital book to read while you listen. But it isn't sold as a package. Quite seriously, I'm not about to go hunt down a paperback or an eBook to accompany this. They really should be sold as a package. The audiobook I picked up on sale, so while it's a waste of money in terms of what it's trying to achieve, it's a waste of not a lot of money and I'm listening to some French. But - I have a Netflix subscription and can watch a French movie with French subtitles. I've got the Chatterbug app - I can watch videostreams on all kinds of topics. There are other ways to get in the listening, as this is quite fast anyway, I had to slow down the audio, and my French is above B1.
