    Muchas gracias por compartir tu conocimiento acerca del IB Español B. Yo soy nativa de Honduras y español fue mi primer idioma hasta la edad de casi 7 años. Desde entonces Ingles tomo possession de mi.

    Ahora vivo en China, soy bibliotecaria en una escuela internacional. Este es nuestro primer año aquí, me han pedido que enseñe IB Español B NS. Me gustan los retos así que accedí, pero muchas veces me siento que no se que es lo que estoy. He tomado un taller por medio del IB por internet pero fue mas perdida de tiempo y dinero.

    Me gustaría poder comunicarme contigo acerca de como integrar literatura con los temas troncales.

    Muchas gracias de antemano.. tu pagina la tengo en mis favoritos para obtener acceso inmediato.

    sinceramente,
    Dora

  4. Hello! And thank you so much for helping us with our french learning! This is a unique resource and is perfect for the way I like to learn. I was wondering, is it possible to download audio files of the videos so I can be listening to them while I work?

    1. Thank you for your comment. I am not sure if you are referring the videos on YouTube or the resources on the membership. You can download all files as mp3 on the membership for as little as 4.75 Euros a month https://www.aliceayel.com/membership-login/welcome/ I am pretty sure it is possible to download the videos on YouTube as audio files but I don’t know exactly how. You would have to do a little search. I hope I have answered your question. Happy French acquisition!

    1. Bonjour Mary and congratulations! You have watched all the Baby Stage videos available so far!!! There will be more coming soon. In the meantime, you can watch, read and listen to the Marie and Médor adventures in Paris. They are 10 stories, the first one is here https://www.aliceayel.com/resources/marie-a-une-obsession/

      You can download the eBook for free because you are a member and also read the stories in the past tense https://www.aliceayel.com/?product/Nouvelles-aventures_Marie-et-Medor-a-Paris_v1.0_Standard-edition.pdf

      When you type “easy, beginner, upper beginner” in the search box, you will have access to more stories to read and to listen to. Here are some suggestions:

  5. Bonjour! Your resume is impressive and it’s wonderful your children are so multi-lingual. It’s nice to get to know a little bit about my French teacher! 🙂 “merci” from Southern California.

  6. Hi Alice,

    I’ve been watching your YouTube videos for a while now and think your method of teaching French is one of the best I’ve seen. I can understand the gist of all your YouTube stories, so I recently decided to take it a step further by subscribing to your website. I haven’t explored everything on your site yet, but I’m impressed with what I’ve seen, so far. I can see that you have put a lot of work into this site and that you are passionate about making French available to everyone. You have motivated me to want to become fluent in French, so thank you very much for your enthusiasm. 🙂

  7. Hi Alice, thank you so much. You are the best French teacher. I am a new member and still getting to know all the ways I can improve my French through your site. I wonder if you will make more cooking videos. I really enjoy them and have made the recipes you already showed. Thank you so much and blessings to you and your family.

  8. Alice, I can’t seem to log in to the Infant stage and I can’t find whether or not I still have a subscription, or how I paid for the course in the beginning.
    Where do I look?

  9. Bonjour Alice! I purchased the 3 month subscription 5 days ago but I am enjoying your content so much I would like to change it to the yearly subscription. But I can’t find how to do that. Can you help me please? Thank you so much!

  10. Bonjour, Alice ! I am really enjoying the site and I am super proud that you have used one of my comments on your Instagram account! (Elodie). My real name is Tara, but that is my fun French name that a teacher once gave me so I use with when I am learning French 🙂

    Question, I saw that you teach classes with Express Fluency. What is the difference between these two classes?

    And what level to those classes corralate to with your website stages?

    I could not find another location to ask this question so I posted it here. Hope that is ok.

    Merci !

    1. Bonjour Tara-Elodie 🙂

      The Beginner class recordings and readings are for French beginners who are at the Baby Stage on the membership. The first one was recorded during the fall of 2021 and the other one during this winter 2022.

      You may want to join us live online in the spring. Classes start on Friday, April 29. During a session, we first start with small talk in French talking about how we feel, what’s the weather like… Then I tell a story and then we read aloud and mime the story together or we play games. You can sign up here https://expressfluency.com/product/beginner-french-alice/

      Merci infiniment !

      1. Merci ! I would love to join you live, but I work in a high school (until the end of June) and definitely cannot make the time. I will keep an eye out to see if you offer anything else in the summer. PS – I am really enjoying Où est Médor ?. It is such a cute story! I am only on chapter 5 but I love the way you tell stories so I am trying not to rush through it. Thank you for all the time and effort you put into each of your stories. You keep it fun and that keeps me wanting to come back for more. Even if all I can ever do is read books, magazines, and cookbooks in French, I will be completely pleased.

        Très merci !
        Tara (Élodie)

  11. It was nice to see you during bookclub today, but I must offer my apologies, Alice. I was unable to log in on my computer so was trying to join the Book Club chat from my phone and was having trouble unmuting myself so I disconnected and then reconnected a few times. Then I had to go because my lunch break was over. I will try again for the next one. I really enjoyed listening to people chat in French. You made it easy to feel connected. I understood more than I thought I would. Merci et bon week-end!
    -Tara (Élodie)

  12. Merci, Alice!

    Tu est fantastique!

    Est-ce que c’est possible pour toi faire un video – ou un series … peut-etre un pour chaque position … le vache – chat position, l’arbre, etc. – du yoga en francais – avec une liste de le vocabulaire?  That would be merveilleux!  Acquiring French (vocabulaire plus ecouter) + doing a relaxing activity at the same time!

    Merci pour ton consideration.

    I’m so very glad to have found you.  Encore, merci pour ton travail m’aider.

    Anne
