5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome book! "I've studied French for years, and my high school adopted a program where they get a French person (1 a year) to help teach the class and expose us to real French. My teacher got this book to help the assistants figure out what we were saying in English! It's just like our regular textbooks, but sooooo much more useful! I've gone over some of the stuff in here with our assistant teacher and she's getting more comfortable with English, just like I am with French!"
