4.0 out of 5 stars Quoi de mieux!, 11 Mar 2004
This review is from: Voila (Hardcover)
I have been using this book since it was published the first time and I must admit it's always been of great help. Compared to the BBC publications, Voila is simple to use, easy to follow, modern, colourful and has sufficient grammar explanation. It brings a real French flavour to the students'learning and with my knowledge of France (being French) I find this book perfect. Just one drawback though... it has not been revised to change the French Francs into Euros. Let me remind the buyer that he/she is a French teacher it is of course up to them to motivate the students, use additional material and deliver accordingly to their audience. This book is definately a book for FE/HE/adult ed. audience. I have also decided to use it this year towards the LCCI qualification in FLAW (Foreigh Language at Work). Bravo Mme Gonthier et M. Geoghegan!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good introduction to French for adults, 23 April 2005
By hiljean (Wiltshire, England) - See all my reviews
This is a well-structured introduction to French for adults and provides lots of vocabulary that other such books tend to omit, such as the process of buying a property in France. In the process the grammar is also well covered and compiled in a section at the end of each unit. My one criticism is that some of the material used (examples of ads, for instance) contain difficult vocabulary which is not covered in the main text.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good basic book, 12 Mar 2008
By Mrs. Am Lovegrove "avid reader" (Chippenham Wiltshire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have been teaching French to adult beginners using this book for the past two/three years and I think it is very good with the right support. I cannot see that one can learn French from scratch with it, but then I don't believe anyone can learn a language with a book and a cd pack only. It uses very practical language and by the end of the book my students are confident enough to go to France and have a good basic conversation with French people.
